An Irish Wedding: The Big Day
I’m not 100% on whether I can or should post other people’s pictures from the day, so for the sake of simplicity, I won’t. And, fair warning, this is going to be a bit rambly and disjointed. Didn’t sleep badly, but didn’t sleep a lot, so I was awake before my alarm & had all…

Not Much To Report
Bit of a nothing day today. I didn’t sleep badly, but I didn’t sleep for long periods, and had trouble getting back to sleep, so that wasn’t great. I hindsight, sleeping in wasn’t the best approach, because that rarely works; Certainly didn’t this time. It’s a period of great turmoil in the hostel, with ⅔…

Bangkok, Day One
Nothing particularly significant happened today, more or less by design. I slept in, wandered around the area to see what I could find, had breakfast at a cafe with pictures of cats on the counter … The usual. There are so many weed shops & cafes here. I tried to look up what the Thai…

Last Day In Siem Reap
I’m aware that the really image heavy posts aren’t loading properly; I’ll divide them up more, into maybe 15-20 images per post, to see if it helps, because I think it’s the number of images that’s causing WordPress some issues Another quiet day. I’m less & less sure that the coughing thing was entirely Aircon…

The Quiet Day
My goal for today was to leave the hostel, and I managed it. Travel days often mess me up & leave me exhausted, so I tend to plan for that. Slept until 10, so I’m going to assume that the travel day really did take it out of me. Not because I was doing much,…

Craig’s First Tour, Part 1
Pickup from the hostel turned out to be a young suit-wearing woman on a scooter, so an only slightly terrifying ride to the tour office occurred. All but the last 100m was in Old Quarter alleyways, so after walking them for a few days, it wasn’t so bad. It did back up my theory that…

Lego Relics
On the advice/recommendation of a friend, I went to see this, not really knowing what to expect. I’d been jabbed with a number of needles that day, with both a blood draw for testing, because my GP rather liked the idea, and a couple of vaccinations, because Hepatitis & Rabies really do suck and are…

Sunday: Predation & Closing
The day started with VIG swag; Well, technically with a shower & getting dressed, but then VIG swag. There was a lot of it, but I have essentially no luggage space, so Naomi+Jay very kindly swung through the JW in their truck & took it off my hands to give it a good home. We’d…

Saturday: Rapscallion, Brindlewood Bay, & Old Gods Of Appalachia
This was my three-game day; Rapscallion, Brindlewood Bay, & Old Gods Of Appalachia; 12 hours of games, though maybe a smidge less as some of them finished early.

Let It Snow?
The news has a cutesy rhyming name for the storm which is bringing so very much snow to these parts. They can keep said name, because it’s stupid. So, we’ve had the Working In A Snowglobe thing the last few days. Also, the canal froze a bit. And then a bit more. Yes, that’s a…
