3 - Undertale

There's something about this game from #TobyFox that is really special.

Ever since my kids found this game and I started watching them play and hearing them discuss the characters, I was enthralled.

Scene from the game Undertale Frisk looks into the mirror at "New Home" in the underground. The message reads, "Despite everything, it's still you. "

2 - Tangled

Okay, of all the Disney films out there, #Tangled is probably not the one you'd expect on this list. It's not even a Pixar movie.

But I do really enjoy this film.

1 - Spirited Away

So, I'll start this series with #SpiritedAway If you've never seen this film - who even are you.

And, NO!!! It's not just a kids film. It's a heart-warming tale of self discovery that anyone can enjoy.

Don't know if it's being reviewed now but my account still looks like it's up.

Anyways, here's my post in case it does get taken down:

Busy day today.

Took a lovely trip over to Bangor to discuss politics and AI.

Followed this up with a walk along #Crawfordsburn Country Park and over to #HelensBay

Beautiful day once again in Northern Ireland.

Took a walk through the twin villages of #Kells and #Connor halfway between Ballymena and Antrim along the Crawford Park.

Beautiful day again over here and just the thing before starting work.

Hi ya.

With my wee girl still off school following a tummy bug, decided to take her down to the #PeoplesPark in #Ballymena

Had a lovely time just walking alongside the lake and playing in the park. Just the cure after a couple of days stuck in bed feeling unwell.

People's Park, Ballymena A lovely day down by the duck pond. People's Park, Ballymena Swans just chilling by the lakeside. People's Park, Ballymena Angry goose, hungry for seeds. (We had none, unfortunately)

It's just like one of my favourite #StarTrek quotes:
So this is how liberty dies... ... with thunderous applause. - Star Trek (I think it's Worf and Deanna Troi)

Just taking a walk around #Antrim town this beautiful morning.

Ended up in Steeple Park, home to this hidden gem - The Antrim Round Tower.
The Bullaun Stone and Antrim Round Tower - Steeple Park, Antrim Local legend has it that a witch became so enraged because of the building of the tower that she flew to the top to attack the builders. But in her anger, she lost her balance and fell onto the large stone at the base. She landed on her knee and her elbow so hard that the stone still bears the marks of where she landed. Antrim Round Tower at Steeple Park, Antrim Once the location of a former medieval monastery, the 17-acre parkland includes the famous Antrim Round Tower, a scheduled monument which served as a bell-tower and place of refuge from raiders.

Just back from taking the dog for a walk in the early #Antrim morning.

Does anyone else's cat follow them on walks? Ours will for a while but doesn't like big open spaces so we'll stop when I reach the field to let the dog off.

No cat pics today but allow me to introduce our dog, Willow.

She met her twin at the dog park today. They didn't get on well (she's very protective of her ball and doesn't like to share).

Still, a good walk and the run around tired her out.

A little.

She has endless energy.

No time for work. I now have a cat on my lap.

Just wanted to post a reminder of this event coming up on Wednesday 26th.

The joy of working from home.

Good to see my co-worker is already at his desk.
The cat resting on my chair as I'm about to start work. Hardest part of my job is telling him he needs to move. They don't pay me enough for this.
