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…

Once More with Gusto (and Games)
This is the usual pivot-post. Ease you in with some games, teach you how to bake, and finish up with some light food criticism. Bon appétit It (still) Takes Two? Yes, we are still playing It Takes Two. It also takes enough time that we’ve got plenty more to play. I have been slightly side-tracked…

Not through the wall, but rather the availability of the coping…

Harvest and Homeworking
I have been off for the last few days on house arrest (study leave), spending hours staring at question after question from every possible source. My FRCPath Part 1 examination is on Wednesday and the cramming is full swing. Ordinarily cramming is not my style, but it’s hard to avoid when preparing for an examination…

How to Train Your Cordon
And just like that, summer was over. We had a brief reprieve with sunny weather the last few weeks, but thunderstorms and torrential rain have made frequent appearances. The garden hasn’t suffered the weather particularly well – all of my tomato plants died off suddenly and unexpectedly following a particularly windy and damp spell. I…

Build That (Garden) Wall and Back in the Workshop
I am an excellent procrastinator. I hold modesty as a virtue the majority of the time, but when it comes to procrastination, I’m up there with the greats. I can achieve anything as long as it’s unrelated to the thing I’m currently trying to achieve. Procrastination is the force that has been keeping me from…
