It was Christmas eve and I picked up my brother to bring to the family house to stay the night. He wasn’t feeling too perky, but I couldn’t blame him. He is a supermarket supervisor and just had to endure the silly season. Uh oh. . .

What are the odds?
I’d finally purchased Pokémon Legends Arceus after having a go at a friend’s house, where he tricked me into going into the high level area past the Alpha Snorlax. I was trying to get myself an Eevee but kept failing and decided to do something different instead; I’d go to the high level area and…
The garden wētā
My runner beans have been attacked constantly throughout summer. At first it was just the tips of the runners being nibbled off, then the baby bean pods were chewed, and I suspect that the culprits are also responsible for the missing leaves and fruit from my strawberries too. When watering I looked up the top…
86 Eighty Six and the divisiveness of a loli
86 Eighty Six is an anime that was frequently mentioned in Top x Anime lists of 2021. It took mecha anime back to tropes not seen as much in modern anime, and while this can be off-putting for some who prefer the newer mecha anime, I thoroughly enjoyed it. . . until season 2. And…
Garden Bragging Nov 2021
Its been a year since moving into the new flat, and that meant that I was able to get gardening much earlier. After harvesting the last of the peas and pumpkins and removing the dead or dying remains of the plants I neglected the gardens for the winter. September I weeded the hardy winter weeds…

I have really been getting into Sports Anime this year. And by ‘sports anime’ I really am only referring to Haikyuu, Ping-pong and Hajime no Ippo at the moment. Forgive me if my tastes haven’t branched out very far yet as I have found that I prefer my fantasy anime in a fantasy world and…
Understanding the anti-masking sentiment
I have recently gotten to understand the anti-mask sentiment that has mostly been kept hidden from my social media feeds. It seems to cause a bit of debate between different groups. Some people are adamantly pro-masking and some prefer to avoid masking as they feel the hassle is not worth the outcome. Personally I have…
S3 E20: Thoughts on Futurama
I have recently completed the show Futurama. It was one of the shows that I had seen the occasional episode on TV when it was on the mainstream channels but hadn’t actively consumed, despite one of my past boyfriend’s best friend constantly telling me it was his favourite show. I enjoyed the show and am…
S3 E11: Rotational Inertia
Compared to the 2020 April lockdown, I’ve found it more difficult to get rolling with the online learning. I think that I’m in the rhythm now, it just took a bit more effort than I was expecting, like rotational inertia. Context: rotational inertia is a measurement of how difficult it is to either begin an…
S3 E5: Author Focus: J.V. Jones
I’ve been rereading the Book of Words trilogy by J.V. Jones and I am hooked (again). The last time I read the series was over 10 years ago so I’m really enjoying my second read through and am surprised at how much of it comes back to me. The style Jones employs is different from…
