If gaming isn’t a part of your life, you’re doing it wrong.

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…

Travels and (Almost) Total Solar Eclipse
There are plenty of reasons to holiday in the Catalan capital. Sangria. Tapas. Gaudi. Xocolate. Our summer holiday was a re-do of last years washed out trip to Barcelona.

More goats?!
Goat Simulator has arrived! Well, it arrived last Friday but I’ve been too busy playing it and, at times, doing actual work that I have not got round to writing about it. Fear not, however, as this is the long awaited review of Goat Simulator. Perhaps one of the greatest games of our time, Goat…

Goats…just goats
Only on the internet could a joke rapidly become one of the most wanted video games. I am talking about the one and only Goat Simulator, the physics based game that has the player wreaking havoc as a goat. It’s an idea so ridiculous, and fantastic that it is hard not to love it. Even…
