I finished some pictures for the nursery this week - I'll post a link to them when I've done a little write up for them on my creative blog. They are of characters that I am developing for a children's book that Jane is writing - I think it's quite good myself (the book that is, not my pictures -…

I don't really feel like doing a full update this week, so here is the link to the RGF game this week (Hanger 2), and me telling you that I did a new RFVT video (New Rally X), and a new Halo video (episode 9 - Keyes). Check them out on our YouTube channel.

Jane is feeling Flipper quite a lot now that she knows what it is that she is feeling. She had been feeling butterflies for a couple of days, but has only just cottoned on to what it actually is. Our child moving around! That is magical. I've still not felt them move from the outside though, that's the bit I'm…

We went and had another little listen to Flipper's heartbeat this week - it's so fast! And at one point there was a thud, which the midwife said was most probably a kick. Tonight is my last night in the study before it becomes Flipper's room - well, the last night that my PC is in here at least. The…

We went and had our twenty week scan on Monday - baby Flipper doing fine. Two arms, two hands, two feet, four heart chambers, two kidneys, one brain, one spine, and two very long legs. We knew they'd be tall, but for the lady doing the scan to stop doing the scan and say "Wow, long long legs" is probably…

We've got the 20 week ultrasound on Monday, I'm super excited for that. We've decided that we're not going to find out if Flipper is a boy or a girl until they are born - it's going to be an awesome surprise! I mean, I know it could only be one of two options, but still, it's gonna be a…

Jees, we're over halfway through April already! Only two videos on the YouTube channel this week, one Dark Souls, one Halo World Tour. RGF is TimeSwap, a platform game in which you can swap time. I don't really have much to say this week, it's been a bit of a downer to be honest. Asda has been physically demanding over…

I can't believe it's almost April already. Where did March go? Shit, where did February go? It was over before it began! Time is marching on quickly nowadays. I've finally fulfilled one of my life's ambitions by getting myself on Google Maps. Here is the link, and for posterity, here's a picture. I sold my rowing machine this week in…

2012

2012 eh? The Mayans thought the World would end - fucking idiots. Not the Mayans, but the people who misinterpreted their calendar. It was a mixed bag - some good, some bad, but mostly good. I started with the misconception that I could code - what a lol. It was a mixture of getting a new, powerful PC and a…

Gamerscore target reached

By Iain 21 August 2012Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments

I hit my target of 80,000 Gamerscore today. I had until the end of the year, but it was playing on my mind a lot, so I just decided to get it over with before Halo 4 hits. And there are a few other games I want to play for fun in the meantime too, such as Deus Ex: Human…
