It's too late, you're already here.
I picked up a copy of NBA Jam for the Megadrive last week. It’s considered a classic for a reason. I didn’t actually own a copy of it back in the day and I wouldn’t say basketball was my go-to sporting interest. But I certainly played it with my cousins and a few of my…
I’d mentioned a little while ago that I’d ordered the series The Expanse by James S. A. Corey. I’m just finishing Abbadon’s Gate which is book three and I can highly recommend the series. It’s been a while since I’ve jumped into an extended sci-fi story but I’m glad I did. It’s science fiction action with…
The paint job on my Flowhive is complete. It’s styled like a beach shed! Or the Grey Bar Hotel…it will remain unpopulated for the next few weeks until my nucleus is ready for collection. I’ve ordered a 5 frame nuc with Italian bees.

After many months and a lot of glue, plaster, paint and foam, I finished my Shire diorama and entered it into Armies on Parade 2019. This was my third year participating and my goal was taking Best Scenic Board in the Specialist Games category. I did, so this makes it a hattrick. I also unintentionally…
When everything you know is wrong.
You don’t stand a chance.
I’ve put together some very short “quiz” style videos after seeing a few floating around on Reddit. You’ll have to really know your stuff to do well or care at all.
Progress has been made on the Hobbit themed diorama that will end up being my entry into this year’s Armies on Parade. I’ve learned a lot and regretted quite a few decisions. One of the main things I’ve learned is that no matter how many different types of glue you own, you won’t have the…
Likes: Dry food, paint water, puddle water, making biscuits. Dislikes: Being attacked by Orange, closed doors, sudden movements.
