On the Road Again
The beginning of the Irish chronicle. Our epic journey started in Plymouth with an easy two hour drive to Bristol airport one sunny Saturday afternoon. An easy drive hasn’t been guaranteed the last couple of months due to the Curse of the Acoustic Foam! No, it’s not a campy B-movie, but instead an attempt by…

Gardening and a (It’ll be) Grand Tour
I’m still plugging away at Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty (excellent DLC, by the way). Here’s what I’ve been up to otherwise. Garden Update The raised beds are showing various degrees of success. One bed is being slowly replaced by potatoes, and has a good crop of lettuce and radishes. A few of the beetroot and…

FDZ (Food, Drinks, and Zombies*)
*The undead monster, not the drink. Hokum May is traditionally known as the most terrifying of months. Tempting us with near 20 degree heat, followed by a drop in temperature and torrential rain. What better way to celebrate the season than with a horror film! Hokum stars Adam Scott as a self-loathing asshole of a…

The Gran Fondo – Nope, not another Tim Schafer Game
Way back in at the end of March, what feels like an eternity ago, we signed up for the Gran Fondo. Gran Fondo is an italian term for a bike event at least 75 miles long and individually chip timed. There’s a competitive element, but they’re not strictly speaking races – rather, sportives. For the…

The MST3K Special
Where have you been my whole life? That was the predominant thought in my mind when I stumbled across the Netflix reboot of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 (MST3K to its many fans). This was a series that ran for over ten years from 1988 to 1999 and pioneered the practice of riffing over bad films…
