I'm in bed. Book in one ear (Lamplighters by Emma Stonex) and driving, driving in the other.
The sound of rain tip tapping on the roof as I pootle along my journey. How are you relaxing this evening?

What are YOU playing this week?
Another wet, windy and wild Monday here in Wales (no idea how it's STILL summer) so I'm diving back into the Abyss this morning with Abyssus to grab some community content and keep up to date.

Guess the Game this week was only one of my favourite video games ever made! The Curse of Monkey Island.
Not many people have heard of it these days, but a couple of you seem to remember it at least!

What WAS the last game you completed?
Last night I finally completed my full run on Sniper Elite 5 - in Authentic difficulty. It was a fantastic challenge but whether easy or a tough one I'd love to know the last game you managed to finish.
