Tomorrow is my 2nd wedding anniversary. The first TTRPG my husband and I ever played together nearly a decade ago was Vampire the Masquerade. Today in our local charity shop, by chance we spotted in the window the leather bound 20th Anniversary limited edition of VtM.

May have just found the vintage statement door knocker earrings of my dreams. Keeping my fingers crossed they're still available whenever payday hits this month because I've been looking for a pair like this for forever (it's also an excuse to head to my favourite vintage/antiques area of London).

So what platform are we using these days for posting blogs? Litterally anything but WordPress though. I don't wanna deal with making a website and managing all of that. WordPress and I do not get along.

Check in on your friends who are new(er) parents... we need it lol.
My 11 month old is teething and has only napped an hour since 6:30am. He wants to be picked up and cuddled AND be put down to toddle about at the same time. He is big mad at discovering that isn't possible but demands I try anyway.

Spooky month is nearly here, which means the spooky season decor will soon be going up in the flat. It also means I can buy halloween themed clothing and a costume for the bub! He's going to be 1 in October, I can't believe how fast time flies!

In today's episode of lucky charity shop finds...
This beautiful old Menelaus Blue Morpho butterfly specimen.
Need to rearrange a few things to find the best place to display it (we like trinkets and cool decor stuff in this household and must keep things away from little hands).

I had a physiotherapist appointment today. I wasn't expecting it to go well, but for once I someone who really cared. Also turned out the issue wasnt as bad as it seemed on scan results! Having had bad physio experiences over a decade ago, today's experience was a pleasant surprise.

Critter Kitchen arrived! Never had a game arrive so well packed!
And damm, Cardboard Alchemy weren't kidding when they said deluxe! There's SO MANY TOKENS (all wooden or metal), cards, and custom storage. The artwork is gorgeous. The quality is incredible.
Cannot wait to get this to the table!

I cannot wait for December. Dragonmeet cannot come fast enough! I haven't been to any cons yet this year (no UKGE for the first time since I started going!). I miss seeing folks!
I'm also looking forward to getting the small goblin a new suitably nerdy outfit for his 2nd Dragonmeet!

If I made silly little vlog videos with very little editing where I sat down with a coffee and just talked about board games I liked, would anyone even be interested? I'm not even talking about a proper "review" just like "I like this thing because XYZ, here take a look its cool."

Also, I just really want to play more board games. Tempted to get a pro BGA subscription so I can play with friends more once the little goblin is asleep.

I am having a not great week so I had a massive chocolate drenched waffle for breakfast and then treated myself to the deluxe Critter Kitchen board game. Might even pick up some expansion bits for other board games. I'll worry about shelf space later 🤣
Chocolate and games are a good pick me up!

ITS HERE! Cursed Captains of Cthulhu by @blackcatsgaming.bsky.social has arrived. I had so much fun working on this alongside some really fantastic people, doing layout, some of the GM screen cover design, and designing the dice and tentacle skull. Now just to find time to sail the seas!

I read A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and now I'm back in my ASoIaF feels, specifically about After the Fyre (A wonderful streamed game, watch it on youtube). One of the best games I've ever played in. So here I am, long after that game ended, writing more Mara fiction (if you know, you know).

I had the honor of doing the layout for the Space 1999 TTRPG. I'm so thankful to @peregrinecorone.bsky.social who invited me to work on this and who has done an incredible job creating this book, and to the folks at @gerryanderson.bsky.social for trusting me with such a beloved IP.
