Last year I set myself the challenge of reading 12 books during the year.

I had completely fallen out of sync with reading - busy life, online distractions and 4 kids will do that to you.

I got through 25 books in all for the year, mostly good with a few turkeys.

Now for 26 in 2026!

I've only been playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle for 2 days, but if you love the movies then you'll love it. I'm not a fan of the combat, but it always feels like you're adventuring through an Indy movie. Bashing nazis with objects you pick up is also lots of fun

Rewatching all the old Indiana Jones movies ahead of the release of Indiana Jones and The Great Circle on @xbox.com

I deeply deeply respect Harrison Ford.

But his Scottish accent in IJ and The Last Crusade is singularly the worst attempt at a Scottish accent I've ever heard.
