That's short for situation report, which is what this post is intending to be as it's been over a week since my last post, which is well naughty of me. Where am I right now? Well, smack bang in the middle of a bunch of ideas. I recently bought a capture device for the Xbox - plan is to record…

Just write something so they know you’re still alive

By Iain 7 July 2013Creativity, Internet, Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments

Hi, still alive. The fitness targets I made are not going terribly well - I seem to have developed a monster appetite since stopping smoking, I'm really enjoying my food at the moment. Just need to tone it down a little, have some resolve. I've got a reasonably long to-do list, and not enough motivation to get me through it…

Our Honeymoon – Day 8

By Iain 15 June 2013ReflectionsNo Comments

Day eight, we drove home. The cats were happy to see us when we arrived, as were the boys. There not being any scales in our apartment, I had no idea if I had put on weight. Well, I say I had no idea, but it was really obvious to be honest - I was drinking 2-3 pints of lager…

Our Honeymoon – Day 4

By Iain 11 June 2013Films/TV, ReflectionsNo Comments

We had no eggs left on day four and it was a little bit rainy. This made me want to sadface all over the place, but then I remembered it was our Honeymoon, so I stopped being sad and went back to being awesome. We went to the National Marine Aquarium in Plymouth on this day, and they have a…

Halo 4: Campaign

By Iain 7 January 2013Reviews, VideogamesNo Comments

I have played through the Campaign three times – once with Jane on Normal, once with Lewis on Heroic, and once by myself on Legendary. This is what I thought of it.

Caution: There will be spoilers!

Also, as well as the spoiler warning, I should let you know that this may be all over the place. I’m not going to basically write out the whole story, I will jump from start to end and back again with little warning.

But I will start at the beginning.

Halo 4: Enemies

By Iain 5 January 2013Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments

I've played through the Campaign mode three times now, once with Jane on Normal (she doesn't like dying!), once on Heroic with Lewis, and once by myself, on Legendary, which was a slog! Those Promethean Knights sure have strong shields. This is what I thought of the Halo 4 bestiarum vocabulum. Caution: There will be spoilers! When Halo 4 was…

2012

By Iain 30 December 2012Creativity, Internet, Music, Reflections, Site Related, VideogamesNo Comments

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…

Level Up!

By Iain 8 December 2012Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments

34. As is tradition - I must say that I don't feel a day older than 25. Jane got me some smelly stuff, a cool Tetris mug that reveals a pattern when hot water is inserted, and a larger memory card for my mp3 player. The James'ses got me a WHSmiths voucher, and Colin and Myrtle got me a lovely…

Taking stock

By Iain 16 August 2012Books, Films/TV, Internet, Reflections, Site Related, VideogamesNo Comments

After the madness of my cousins wedding and the holiday with the boys, I feel I need to streamline my existence, have a good sort out and tidy everything up. I started today (whilst catching up on Peep Show - the tail end of series 6 and start of series 7), just general organisational things really, and I have next…
