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…

Déja vu – The Room Where it Happened (Twice)
You’ve kept me in the room where it happened…for the last time Death Stranding (again) I finally finished Death Stranding and it did not disappoint. There were a few false credit sequences and post-credits experiences that were incredibly Kojima-esque. There were a few incredible story reveals at the very last moment. Rest assured, Death Stranding…

Death Stranding (the First One)
Just in time for the sequel. I’m nothing if not timely. I don’t get Death Stranding. Or so I would’ve told you after I first played this masterpiece a few years back. I didn’t get the appeal of trekking across bleak expanses of post-apocalytic wasteland. I didn’t get the incessant inventory management. I didn’t get…

The Arts (Cinema, Theatre, Gardening, Cars…)
Hamilton Fever No, it’s not typhoid. It’s time for another dose, or rather a double dose, of the Alexander Hamilton story. Given it’s massive profile, it’s hard to imagine not having heard of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s global musical phenomenon. Its profile was given a substantial boost by the release of the Broadway recording on Disney+ in…
