Just watched Ocean by David Attenborough. Amazing, exhausting, emotional, and in places utterly awful to watch. Youngest found bits hard going, I cried, eldest said he felt inspired despite how hard it was.
Mostly warning people, if you're like me gird your loins. It is a tough watch. #saveourseas

Finally got round to reading #fourthwing by @rebeccayarros.bsky.social . It stands alone but I might have started sooner had I realised the main character has hypermobility. I mean sure... I'm not gonna be riding dragons or anything but still good to see. #representationmatters

One of the places I call home is in trouble, I'm not joking when I say it saves lives. We're so close to being sustainable again after COVID but things keep happening (vandalism, break ins etc) Please share about and donate if you're able.

Today we tried After Us which I won at the Rising of Chicanery games day.
It's a very pretty game which took very little time to learn, and you're evolving primates!
Overall a fun game, easy to learn with beautiful illustrations by @catchupgamer.bsky.social

I've been trying to work out what it is that doesn't quite sit right about the Chihuahua card from Dog Park by Birdwood Games (which is an excellent game, with beautiful art work). Mabel would like to volunteer to be the next model anyway.

Got the chance to teach Between Two Castles of Mad King Ludwig by @stonemaiergames.com It's such a brilliant game with an interesting mechanism, both cooperative and competitive. It was everyone else's first time (5 other people) and after a slow start they soon got to grips with it.

Tried Reign of Cthulu yesterday for the first time from the same pandemic realms by @zmangames.bsky.social
It's been a while since I played Pandemic and I usually avoid the hardest settings. But we lost. It felt close but I'm not sure if that's accurate. Very much enjoyed it, either way!
