This cocktail contains an infusion of cordyceps (yep, the parasitic fungi). The leaf garnish hides an edible oyster-grown pearl. I'll be honest, it was an experience, but one I didn't repeat. It was a really great bar though!

Just back from a few days in Amsterdam, helping one of my best friends celebrate the big 5-0. Saw Sinterklaas arrive by boat. Drank lots of (slightly pretentious) cocktails. Saw some herons at a fishmarket. Narrowly dodged lots of bicycles. Good times.

Apparently the Kindle edition of The Last Vigilant is just 99p on Amazon UK until the end of November. Seems like the perfect opportunity to give it a try if you haven't already!

Feeling the urge to rewatch the Branagh Frankenstein movie. I remember not really gelling with it, but I've got the DVD so...

Stonking job on the shield. I chickened out and used a ye-olde decal. So old, in fact, that the clear film has yellowed a bit - I only noticed when I saw the photo, so now I have to touch it up.

I've missed #MiniatureMonday a few weeks in a row, but I'm back with a new #WarhammerQuest hero. Using this guy as a Lord of Aenarion (the @gavthorpe.bsky.social expansion).

The local flower shop was giving away leftover squashes from their display today, and I came away with this 5kg monster, and I have no idea what I'm going to do with it.

Watching Daisy May & Charlie Cooper's "Nightwatch". The ghost-hunting aspect is fatally flawed, because the siblings go to bed before midnight, and just... sleep.
Guys, you're supposed to stay up and do a Nightwatch. Clue's in the name.

Saved up Slow Horses to binge. Halfway through, and IMHO it's the most consistently excellent show in years. Roddy Ho is the *worst*, but in terms of writing is also the best.

- OTHER (2025) 🦇 (This one spoiled a great run. Very good setup, unbelievably bad ending. Couldn't believe it was from the same director as MadS)

I'm still recovering, so no cocktail for me this week. Mrs L has to be a trooper and drink this 5/5 cocktail alone. What a trooper!
