Walls, Fletchers, and Games
The Wall Building will Continue until Morale Improves Yes, I have brutalised myself, but all in the name of progress. The wall has come together quite quickly. Is it perfect? Far from it, but it hasn’t fallen down yet and doesn’t look horrendous. It is a long overdue project as I hated the old pseudo-brick…

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. We are discussing brick-and-mortar (and sometimes chassis in the case of vans) libraries. I have an on-again, off-again relationship with the library system. It was a convenient…

Games, Gourds, and Gameras?

Nope. The PS4 version made it to 1.6, but that’s where the developers (CD Projekt Red) have bowed out. The PS4…

Autumn and Apples
I’ve been feeling autumnal, and what better way to celebrate than a drink! The Autumn Fruit Harvest If I call it a harvest, maybe it will distract from the fact there is only one apple. The cordon is only a couple of years old at this time so not quite at fruiting maturity. All of…

Diving from the Comfort of your Chamber
You might be able to figure this one out from the title. I’m nothing if not helpful! Last week I spent part of the afternoon at the bottom of the sea. Well, in a sense. As part of a day long introduction to diving medicine at the DDRC in Plymouth (formely the Diving Disease Research…
