There’s definite irony in the fact that, given my current state of disability, I won an “official Adidas match ball” in a Women’s Euros sweepstakes, via Amazon!

I’ve been entering a ton of competitions in the hope of winning a Lucy Bronze football shirt (they’re £99 + p&p from the official site!!)

I penned a short insight into my thoughts on our recent superhero #rpg episode, where the heroes were pitted against a powerful resurrected mummy.

After a short break, our superheroic #rpg shenanigans have resumed, with "our heroes" (the group calling themselves The Strangers) now being painted by the press as "public enemy number one".

My latest shipment of new (to me) vintage comics, courtesy of Wayne from Wayne's Comics.

You might notice a bit of a theme this month!

#mailcall The plan is, once I’ve finished my latest rewatch of Deadwood, to follow that up with Brisco County Jnr then start Hell on Wheels - which I haven’t seen since it first aired on TV.

Magnificent Easter treats from @rachellk.bsky.social Nothing says Easter more than books about American Civil War battles and a 19th Century cannibal outlaw. 🐣

Today Rachel’s parents came over to help dismantle Barney’s hutch and do plenty of other garden-related bits and bobs for us.

Rachel was also planting up the new, large pots etc I helped a bit and Alice mainly demanded treats.

Work on Barney’s memorial rock garden is pretty much complete. I’m immensely proud of the job Rachel and I have done today.

And the planning and shopping beforehand of the rocks, gravel, plants, and statue.

The weed-proof membrane was very kindly supplied by Rachel’s parents.

A very healthy collection of fresh comic books arrived this morning, thanks to Paradox Comics in Poole. That’s Easter sorted then 😉

First weekend of the year that we were truly able to celebrate our lovely garden. Boosted by the return our local ice cream van, Alice’s Ices. I had my usual glorious milkshake while @rachellk.bsky.social had a cone!

Cool half-dozen new (to me) vintage comics arrived this afternoon from Andy Edwards - thank you very much!

Shopping For Superman lands right in the heart of my geeky bailiwick!

I’m reading my first Louis L’Amour tale of #Western adventure.

The Tall Stranger is an inviting, easy read and I’m really enjoying the escalating sense of mystery and menace.

Interesting #mailcall A Robert E Howard fanzine from 1996, published by Necronimicon Press, rammed with Howard’s boxing stories - particularly, in this issue anyway, those of Sailor Steve Costigan (my favourite REH character).
