Still a couple of spots available in the Saturday AND Sunday games if you fancy playing a #TTRPG or #Wargame in a Welsh Castle this April.

Message me if interested!

Saw it a total of 4 times at the cinema, the last one was just after one of those Saharan sound storms. Felt like I was living the movie.

The three ages of British nerd are 'that Top of the Pops set dressing has been in Doctor Who', 'on a rewatch, The Tomorrow People is shite', and 'oh God, I'm older than Richard Vernon was when he played Slartibartfast, which tbf is younger than you'd think'.

At 4pm on Saturday the 7th, BBC Radio 4 Extra are re-broadcast my adaptation of Iain M. Banks’ β€˜The State of the Art’ starring the late Sir Antony Sher as the ship. So pleased that’s going to be out there again.
