There is nothing I like more than spending my time lingering in a service station car park waiting for something that might happen. We’re dropping the kids off for a trip and the organisers are taking their time to arrive. We’ve been here for twenty minutes. Admittedly, the weather is good. It would be more…
There seems to be considerable advantages in taking the time to attend early play sessions of an unreleased game and then setting the experience to print in a blog… you get quoted ad infinitum as just about the only reliable source of information on the ‘net.

Well, I just sat and watched the whole of Children of Earth in a single marathon sitting. Feel the need to sum up my thoughts without being too detailed or complete. In truth, it wasn’t bad, but it didn’t quite work in the end. You know the scenario that we’ve seen so many times before…
Went to see Bill Bailey at the Palace Theatre in Manchester last night. Great evening, thoroughly enjoyed. As we managed to secure seats in row BB, we had front row viewing – slightly off to the left of the stage. It was sort of odd from this angle, as you could actually appreciate that Bill…
