Writing sci-fi and fantasy to salve my soul. #bipolar --- DnD. Nerdy nonsense... a little science and a twist of art. Shaken well and served over ice.
Weeks now till pirates, steampunks, elves (and anyone else who wants to dress up & join us) descend on chepstow for free gigs, trails and giggles... www.chepstowmanyworlds.com

What happens when you leave your phone in reach of your 14 Yr old when she's eating her lunch
It's "Dice on the Borderlands" today! Gaming in the 11th century Chepstow Castle :)))
A version of the poster for Chepstow's Many Worlds destined for gaming and nerd shops in the Bristol / Cardiff area...
If you needed any other reason to read internationalintrigue.io other than its canny take on the world - it's so you can learn about Major General Sir Nils Olav III, Baron of the Bouvet Islands - the peguin with military rank... Norway send him fish you know
Just watched Sho Kosugi in Revenge of the Ninja at Glasgow fantastic monthly #TrashCinema. So good. So bad. Two ninja related jacuzzi incidents in one movie. Remember kids. Only a ninja can stop a ninja...
Yeah - that's a niche present suggestion in the browser ads. Not sure what I did to the algorithm to deserve that.
Shared with the kids that time K-Pop stans trolled Trump at a rally. They thought it was just as funny as I did. Such fine work.
In the early 90s during restoration work a stone mason replaced one of the Gargoyles on Paisley Abbey with an alien. My lady snapped a pic of it today... I think it should be known as a Gigeroyle
My pal has one of those videos doorbells I popped round to drop off a beer glass earlier...
More handbag work in progress... going measure it against my wife for the strap length because what even is the point of a custom handbag if it's not made to measure...? #leatherwork
"Armadillo" handbag coming on nicely, but I've made that central strap too long. I need to shorten it before i can add the clasps. #leatherwork
The armadillo handbag is coming on well.. might need a bit of lateral reenforcement... those canopies are heavy on the pivots... #leatherwork
An "armadillo" handbag I'm working on for my better half. Should have a top half of overlaying sections that fold back for access... #leatherwork Mostly making it up as I go along...
I'm in Croatia at the moment. They have the most life affirming bottles of water I've ever seen...
Everything I know about New York came from the Beastie Boys' To The 5 Boroughs
That's 5 rejections for We Are Not The Heroes. That means I get to make a badge when I get a minute... #amWriting #booksky also - free kids' book if anyone has youngsters into funny stuff! www.sinewavemind.com/doomsdayogre
"Your contact's name will be Boris, and your name will be--" "Natasha?" "Doris."
Got kids that like funny books? Me too. So I wrote them Granny Vesp and The Doomsday Ogre. A time traveling 10th century witch-out-of-water investigates occult thefts with her plucky descendants in modern London. It's free! RT www.sinewavemind.com/doomsdayogre #kidLit #childrensbooks #booksky
That must be in "old money" - which is Eastern Gorillas and Honey Badgers. Post decimilsation it's Western Gorillas and European Badgers... which would put it nearer 167 Badgers.
Don't normally put the fam's faces online, but very proud of this. Three generations on stage delivering a keynote speech at a H&S conference, Gransha prof., My Better Half and my 3 lovely dnd Gremlins. 3 generations trying to make the world better.
Good times at Dice On The Borderlands yesterday. Ttrpg convention in Chepstow castle organised by the indomitable @bonhomiegames.bsky.social
