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

  • Baking, Boarding, and Beyond

    Don’t it always seem to go, that when you are actually doing things it’s hard to sit down and write about them… Jetting (or rather, turbo-propping) off again The week came with another stint across the water. This time it was much smoother with no delays, and on the way back I had enough time…

  • 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…

(It’s hard to tell if you’ve made progress digging a hole by showing pictures of similar holes,…

  • Shed Loads of Fun

    Demolition in the heat… Following on from the success of our Asgard bike shed, back in March I ordered a 18×7 foot metal shed to replace our old wooden one erected by the previous owners of our house. The old shed was actually two sheds – one eating the other one – which meant that…

  • Cupra and Code Veronica (is that anything?)

    In response to the title, probably not… A slight aside before getting into the meat of this post. We ran into the first battle for chargers over the weekend. At Gloucester services most of the chargers were occupied which led to a queue forming. There were some spaces on Tesla Superchargers, but not everyone has…
