Split Slate and Fiction
A little bit of gaming, and a little bit of DIY. The dry stone walling workshop at Quince Honey Farm was fun, and though the stones were heavy, the detail was light. The most important messages I took away were to just give it a try. And backfill. Lots of backfill. In this context it’s…

Reading on a Deadline
Because what better way is there to relax than a threat of impending confiscation… The Library No, I’m not talking about your Steam Library. Or your PlayStation catalogue.

Electric Life (Driving and Biking)
Something has come over me. A transformation of sorts. I think I like driving. I did something I had never done before. I drove my car to…nowhere. That’s right, I took a journey just for the sake of because I like driving this car so much. The Polestar 2 has converted me, and it’s really…

Cornering Cornwall (Corny?)
We spent a couple of weeks in deepest, darkest Cornwall before peak tourist season. It wasn’t sunny… Some Serious Islands The Isles of Scilly lie off the coast of Cornwall and are accessible by ferry, plane, and helicopter. We opted for the ferry from Penzance to St Mary’s island as the most reasonably priced option,…
