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…

It has been over a month since I’ve visited these pages – my recent writing efforts have been centred around the Lismaine Cottage blog, Cottage Life. But I have returned, with a gadget-related post. No, it’s not gaming, but it is something you may find useful. I’ve been trying to tidy up cables that have…

Starbucks and Badminton
As I sit here trying to enjoy an overpriced and overworked beverage from the average airport “coffee” shop, I can’t help but muse on some of the silly bureaucracy that goes unchecked. All in the name of security, of course. …not so long ago…a meat cleaver in your hand luggage on the way back from…

An Unusual Cup of Coffee
My new job has well and truly started, but I wasn’t exactly thrown in. There were two full days of induction which gave me no indication of what my day job was going to be. But it did mean I got out early on both days. I was walking back to the bus station on…
