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

We did it…and more. The NICHS Step Up Cycle
On Wednesday evening, Dad told me about the 70 km Step Up Cycle for NI Chest Heart and Stroke, and that he was thinking about competing. Nice idea, I thought, but then he asked me if I would be interested in doing it. Not a chance. I would love to be able to, but cycling…

Back in Black (Lycra)
The Ordinary Decent Gamer is back! It has been a while, but I’m back in business with a brief update. I’ve settled into the daily doctorial grind, and with it comes the dreaded commute. Sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the dark mornings isn’t something that interests me. Good thing I skipped cars altogether…
