Walls, Fletchers, and Games
The Wall Building will Continue until Morale Improves Yes, I have brutalised myself, but all in the name of progress. The wall has come together quite quickly. Is it perfect? Far from it, but it hasn’t fallen down yet and doesn’t look horrendous. It is a long overdue project as I hated the old pseudo-brick…

Split Slate and Fiction
A little bit of gaming, and a little bit of DIY. The dry stone walling workshop at Quince Honey Farm was fun, and though the stones were heavy, the detail was light. The most important messages I took away were to just give it a try. And backfill. Lots of backfill. In this context it’s…

Reading on a Deadline
Because what better way is there to relax than a threat of impending confiscation… The Library No, I’m not talking about your Steam Library. Or your PlayStation catalogue. We are discussing brick-and-mortar (and sometimes chassis in the case of vans) libraries. I have an on-again, off-again relationship with the library system. It was a convenient…

Nothing too odd so far, just drinks and cigarettes. I took the Limousine bus to the Grand Hyatt Hotel, and walked from there, much…

Sky Blog Two
I would’ve written sooner, but thanks to China blocking communications over their airspace I haven’t been able to get online for most of the flight. I’ve been up for a long time now and fatigue is starting to settle in. The last flight took a strange turn when I ended up sitting beside an Irish…

Sky Blog One
Blogging in the Sky There’s a first time for everything. First steps. First video game console. First kiss. All the important milestones, and now, this is both my first time using WiFi in the air, and my first time blogging from the sky. The Linx tablet is perfect for this scenario, given its compact size…
