If gaming isn’t a part of your life, you’re doing it wrong.

  • PB and J (Plymouth Brunch and Janners?)

    Cocktail history and etymology. What’s not to like? RE9 Update After a terrifying start, we’re in the midst of a Leon-centric segment in Resident Evil Requiem. It’s a great game and not one we want to rush to completion. We’ve also had a smattering of Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty which has been a lot of…

  • A Few Good Days

    Travelling, food, and other bits and pieces. We spent a week of the Easter holidays travelling the South coast of England, spending some time around Windsor (Legoland), Canterbury, and Rustington. It was a lot of driving, but with the Polestar 2 it didn’t feel like it. The only bits that were a little hairy were…

  • Cyberpunk, Tomb Raider and a Tipple

    While RE9 continues to scare the living daylights out of me, I thought I’d pivot to something lighter. I returned to Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time in a few months and still find it a fascinating game. It’s more playable on the PS5 than my original attempt on the PS4, and part of the…

  • The Path to Post Mortem

    I’ve been spending an inordinate amount of time and effort working recently, so perhaps I should mention the sort of thing I do. I am a pathologist. Queue the sharp intake of breath. I can also feel a morbid curiosity taking hold. It’s not for everyone, and to be honest, very few people understand what…

  • D&D (Darkplace and Dining)

    Come with me now, dear Reader, into the depths of my very consciousness. To a place of darkness and true horror. And discarded Peperami packets. A Dark Place This week we stepped into a particularly dark place. A place so dark, in fact, that it is difficult to even begin to explain exactly how dark…

  • Projects (in Process)

    It’s amazing how much stuff around the house you can block out. Little projects here and there that you’ll get round to eventually, but never do. I’m setting out to change that mentality and get the fiddly things done once and for all. First things first, I’m on the… Chopping Block I have been using…
