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…

Spring has Sprung (It’s a write-off)
This has been a long time in draft. When I’m not cooking, cleaning or playing with Evie, I’ve spent the time tidying the garden which is slowly coming back to life. Yeah, I’m going to need my money back. The weather this year has been atrocious. Google mercilessly taunts me with pictures of a bountiful…

Cordon Vert? (See what I did there?)
My first MagicMirror is practically complete, though I’ve had a few hiccups along the way. This post is going to concentrate on what’s happening around the garden, and I’ll be back with another mirror update soon. Cordon Vert? The goal: make the garden as productive as possible by cramming in fruit trees to every possible…

Magic Mirror on the Wall…
…what’s the weather like in Plymouth? Gaming I had a glorious week off work to cram in lots of fun. We finished the Claire playthrough of Resident Evil 2 (much faster now that there wasn’t a year long hiatus), and even resurrected Oblivion. As much as I loved the fourth iteration of the Elder Scrolls,…
