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

Isle Trotting
This be a holding post…be ye warned Waterford I popped across the Irish Sea to do some work in Waterford last weekend. The flight was delayed and we ended up being the airport stragglers, left stranded almost an hour after the rest of the occupants had vacated. It isn’t the most comfortable place to be…

Madeira (Escaping the Rain)
Trying to cope with the British weather? Why bother. Just leave already. That was our approach over half term. Why stick it out when you can leave for sunnier climes. I believe the upper classes refer to it as “over-wintering”, but five days away hardly a season makes. Geography lesson. You may think that Madeira…

DI-Why? Because I want to
I’ve been back in the groove recently, and have a grim sort of determination to get this office together. It will be done in Plymouth as it is online… Like almost every job I undertake, this one spiralled out of control. What began with me tearing out the bookcases in the spare room resulted in…

A Millenial Says What?
Disclaimer: these are fictional statements and any resemblance to overheard conversation on public transport is unintentional. No, really. Or, the “it’s so stereotypical it’s painful” bus conversations in liberal America. Millenial is often trotted out as a derogatory label, which I resent, being part of the contrived generation myself. However, some individuals are so painfully…
