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

  • On the Road Again

    The beginning of the Irish chronicle. Our epic journey started in Plymouth with an easy two hour drive to Bristol airport one sunny Saturday afternoon. An easy drive hasn’t been guaranteed the last couple of months due to the Curse of the Acoustic Foam! No, it’s not a campy B-movie, but instead an attempt by…

  • Gardening and a (It’ll be) Grand Tour

    I’m still plugging away at Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty (excellent DLC, by the way). Here’s what I’ve been up to otherwise. Garden Update The raised beds are showing various degrees of success. One bed is being slowly replaced by potatoes, and has a good crop of lettuce and radishes. A few of the beetroot and…

  • FDZ (Food, Drinks, and Zombies*)

    *The undead monster, not the drink. Hokum May is traditionally known as the most terrifying of months. Tempting us with near 20 degree heat, followed by a drop in temperature and torrential rain. What better way to celebrate the season than with a horror film! Hokum stars Adam Scott as a self-loathing asshole of a…

Isaac Toast – A Religious Experience Our trip started with an overnight in Unseo, close to Incheon international airport. We stayed…

  • Workshops and Hedgehogs

    DIY, ice cream, and more! Advanced Workshop Repair It’s not terribly advanced in reality, but more cobbled together from a variety of bits of wood laying around. There was a removable top over the sink in the workshop when we bought the house. It was fine for a temporary measure, but not that secure when…

  • Games, Gourds, and Gameras?

    Here’s a squash. It’s quite big… Cyberpunk 2077: The plot thickens… On loading the Cyberpunk 2077 disc into my PS4, I was faced with an expected update notice. Was this the revolutionary 2.0 version? Nope. The PS4 version made it to 1.6, but that’s where the developers (CD Projekt Red) have bowed out. The PS4…
