So it’s virtually the end of November, as of December 1st I will graciously allow the Christmas decorations to go up, and the festive madness truly begins. So, for two more days, it’s a case of random, pre-Christmas silliness. “How many tickles does it take to make an octopus laugh? Ten tickles.” “I’m reading a […]
It occurs to me that in a matter of days, it will have been two years since I left my job selling bathrooms and started my new career selling sofas. That time has been marked with stress, frustration, aggravation and yet, rewarding achievements and a sense that sometimes, pig-headed determination and a refusal to give […]
You may be wondering ‘what is a Lynel?’ Well, say hello to this guy… The above pic is of a Silver Lynel, the toughest variety of said creature (at least on normal mode) in Breath of the Wild. My first encounter with a Lynel – which I remember clearly – was at the Colosseum – […]

Today daddy meerkat, mummy meerkat and little meerkat went on an epic adventure! We enjoyed a visit to the British Museum, taking in various sights from various epochs of history.

… She can’t be bargained with, and she absolutely will not stop, until you are partying.
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
