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…

Back to the Future…Part III
I’m back! And Christmas is over. So there has never been a better time for a vaguely Christmas-themed special. This time, I’m playing Back to the Future Part III on the Sega Mega Drive (Genesis for the American folks). If I told you the game was great…I’d be lying. It’s not one I would recommend,…

An Alternative Christmas
Christmas has been and gone for another year, but there’s still time for…Christmas? Yes, we had our Christmas dinner on Friday the 22nd of December as I’m visiting Sarah in England from the 23rd to the 26th. I spend the past week working nights, and was struck down with a bad case of the cold…
