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

  • A Tern for the…Best?

    What’s a good title without a pun? This one requires a little context. Yet Another E-bike Journey After being burned by VanMoof with a few lovely e-bikes that ended up as minor horror stories, my approach changed. If I was going to wade in again, it was going to be with a company that used…

  • Gardening in the Rain

    Gotta plant! (Is that considered an esoteric reference these days?) The spring hasn’t quite sprung yet, as we experienced an abortive warm spell followed by cold and wet weather. The slugs are having an absolute bash, but I’m less impressed. Although it has dampened me, it hasn’t dampened my spirits. After getting a little fed…
