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…

The Finishing Touches
Putting the finishing touches on our latest furniture project – a pair of vintage beside tables. That is, when we’re not playing the Witcher 3 or Nioh. Choosing the fittings for the beside tables was tough. After a lot of deliberation, we got a handle on the situation. Apologies for the poor pun, but I…

Projects…and a cat
The work never stops. Particularly when you keep making work for yourself. I’ve been playing more of the Witcher 3, and been beaten to a pulp by Nioh, but back to reality with a cat. Sitting on the corner sofa (minor dream/life aspiration), beside our adopted cat (Annie) curled up in a ball, and contemplating…

Let Merriment Abound!
Merry Christmas, everyone! By now, you’ve almost certainly eaten and drunk too much. This morning is a brief reprieve before the leftovers come out. Traditionally, we had a second Christmas dinner on boxing day using up most of the trimmings from the previous day, and making another dent in the turkey. Not even the twelve…
