Anyone who follows this site will know that I am generally left-leaning when it comes to societal/political matters. I am in favour of gay marriage and I abhor discriminatory and bigoted behaviour. I have no patience for creationists and their pseudoscience. I find myself more drawn to left-wing political parties (such as Labour) than I […]
The final round of my second full season of F1 2009 Wii Edition was, to be honest, an anti-climax. I dare say this is the easiest race of the season, with a track that isn’t especially tricky and an AI that is overly cautious. I qualified on pole without breaking a sweat, and would not […]
The most recent title I’ve reviewed so far, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword was the last Zelda game to be released before the Wii U was launched, and it incorporated Motion Plus features of the Wii Remote, enabling the actions of Link to mimic the actions you took with the remote – a key […]
The penultimate round of season two of this little F1 project brings us back to Brazil, and Interlagos. This track has borne witness to late drama in F1 – the title was decided here in 2007, 2008 and 2012. For me, in this fictional career, the title was already mine, so there was no pressure, […]
We are less than 200 days from the new Star Wars film, and whereas at one stage I was cautiously optimistic (but also quite wary) of the new film (in fact, when first announced, I was highly dubious), but now I find myself wondering if the film might actually surpass all expectations. The prequel trilogy […]
The Japanese Grand Prix was the latest race run, as Season Two of this little adventure enters its twilight phase. Coming to this race, I was 29 points clear of Jensen Button, with only 30 points available. Owing to being guaranteed a better record on count-back (thanks to more wins), Button needed me to score […]
Arriving (metaphorically of course) to the Singapore Grand Prix, I was 27 points clear in the title race with a maximum of 40 points available. If I took 3 or more points than Jensen Button, the championship would be mine for the second year running, with three races to spare (whereas in my first season, […]
So we are now seven rounds in to the F1 calendar this season, and round 7 brought an almost routine one-two finish for Mercedes, with Lewis Hamilton taking his fourth win of the year. (Hamilton led Rosberg for the entire race) Hamilton had qualified on pole, once again out-qualifying Rosberg, and at the start he […]
Recently my wife, daughter, step-daughter and her daughter spent a week in Great Yarmouth. It was nice to get away from all the stresses and strains for a short while, and we crammed quite a lot into that week, including swimming, a trip to the Sea Life centre, bouncy castles and a whole lot more! […]
So the European leg of the season came to a close with the Italian Grand Prix at Monza. This track has the highest average speed of any track in Formula 1, with only a few chicanes and moderately tight corners to break up fast curves and straights. It has not been a circuit I’ve traditionally […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
You may be wondering where this post will go. Well, let’s place the scene in the restaurant above. What might I deem inappropriate behaviour in this setting? A restaurant has waiting staff, who (depending on the quality of the establishment) may or may not be paid a particularly decent wage, yet will work very hard. […]
