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

PB and J (Plymouth Brunch and Janners?)
Cocktail history and etymology. What’s not to like? RE9 Update After a terrifying start, we’re in the midst of a Leon-centric segment in Resident Evil Requiem. It’s a great game and not one we want to rush to completion. We’ve also had a smattering of Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty which has been a lot of…

A Few Good Days
Travelling, food, and other bits and pieces. We spent a week of the Easter holidays travelling the South coast of England, spending some time around Windsor (Legoland), Canterbury, and Rustington. It was a lot of driving, but with the Polestar 2 it didn’t feel like it. The only bits that were a little hairy were…

Cyberpunk, Tomb Raider and a Tipple
While RE9 continues to scare the living daylights out of me, I thought I’d pivot to something lighter. I returned to Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time in a few months and still find it a fascinating game. It’s more playable on the PS5 than my original attempt on the PS4, and part of the…

I have reasons! First, it’s a project I can work on without having to leave the house. Second, I was able to acquire a…

A Simpler Time (Sort of)
This is odd. Every time I sit down to write, the situation has escalated. 2020 will be henceforth known as the year that was cancelled. Bars, pubs, clubs, restaurants, gyms, cinemas, cafés, concerts, events, conferences closed or cancelled. In what would be a hugely important year for Plymouth, the 400th year anniversary of the sailing…

Things Change: Coronavirus the Pandemic
*Takes off novelty ears and puts on pathology hat* Things change rather quickly, it seems. I wrote my last post eleven days ago. I’ve never seen a situation evolve as quickly as this. Almost 140,000 novel coronavirus cases and over 5,000 deaths globally. It’s a officially a pandemic. (though we pretty much knew that already,…

Destination Disney (and musings on coronavirus)
Traveling is becoming more fraught in the peri-pandemic days of coronavirus. Italy has seen the most impact of COVID-19 (the clinical syndrome caused by the novel coronavirus) in Europe to date, though cases have reached the UK and Republic of Ireland. More people were at the airport than I had expected, and it was business…
