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

Metal Gearing Up for Christmas (Ordinary Retro Gamer)
Christmas has always gone hand in hand with gaming in my experience, and this year will be no different. Metal Gear Acid Trip I have played a lot of Metal Gear in my life. Hideo Kojima’s masterfully created series has been with me at every step of my gaming journey. We played Metal Gear Solid…

Gearing up for Christmas (a very PS5-y post)
Twas the week before Christmas, when all through the town, every single person was shopping, even the grouse. I love Christmas. I do not love crowds. It’s pretty hard to avoid the masses this time of year when town is packed from the end of November through Christmas Eve. It’s part of the reason I…
