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…

Octopus Energy is the force behind it, and they have been…

Changing Gardens Part Two (Chronicle of the Dump)
The work in the garden continued over the last week. We’ve almost wrapped up the project. We’re back in the back of the garden for another installment. This one is even more plant-filled thanks to the new fern bed installed after we removed a smaller dead tree. We finished off the last installment with the…

Changing Gardens (Chronicle of the Dump)
This post is more of a visual, photo-heavy one documenting the in-progress transformation of the back of our garden. We un-paved paradise, and put up a playground… The area at the back of our garden had been used as a dump for generations of folks. Broken bottles. Wheelbarrows. Insulation. Broken bricks. Mobile phones. You name…
