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…

Kept you waiting, huh?
Exams are over and the Ordinary Decent Gamer is back in business. And what do you do to celebrate the end of a terrible month? You make pasta! Wait, no. That comes later. First, you leave the country as soon as you can and go as far away as you can afford to at that…

Auto-Incorrect
I’m taking a step outside my usual area of interest to talk about something interesting we’ve come across online. Only a few weeks ago, HMRC forced Google to pay £130 million in back taxes, a move criticised as too lenient given the vast profits the giant have raked in. Have the Tories been getting too…
