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)

Dreadful Disney Games – ODG on YouTube
I didn’t think it was possible so soon after the first, but through the power of procrastination, I have finished the second Ordinary Decent Gamer video on YouTube. This one is called Dreadful Disney Games, and is the first part on a series covering some of the Disney property that should be relegated to the…

Christmas (2015) Food and Fun, and a Great Shortbread Recipe
Happy New Year! Christmas flew by, and I barely talked about food at all. I’ve been so distracted working on my first gaming video the writing side of things has fallen by the wayside. But fear not! I am back in business. I did a reasonable amount of cooking this year, though the dessert was not…
