Just thought I’d mention that I’m on Instagram in case you weren’t aware. Feel free to follow if you’d like to!

Deerful at the Shackleton Arms
Just some pictures from a week ago when I went to see Deerful at the Shackleton Arms.
Dr Who, Legacy of Death
This is the second part to the Paradox Planet, which on its own was a brilliant story. As a two parter it’s amazing. This second part is superb and really takes me back to classic 4th Doctor territory. Excellent stuff. Another bit of genius from Big Finish.
Who could resist a master trilogy then?
Yes, pun intended in the title. But I mean, who could resist? This is the first part of a 3 part story covering both masters (within the big finish universe) and engaging three doctors (5,6, and 7). I’ve been enjoying the 5th doctor stories for while now so I’m intrigued to see what the story is like and how it unfolds over three episodes.
And I picked up this the other day too
I’d been thinking about getting this book for a while now, so when I was in a book shop (not a common thing these days) I picked up this and ‘Leviathan Wakes’ at the same time. I haven’t started this, but I’m very curious to find out what it’s like. When I do I’ll tell you.
Sad news, no Brighton Mini Maker Faire this year
Not a massive surprise as it’s a mammoth task to put on this kind of event, and they’ve been doing it for some time now. I’ve been to a couple of these including last year’s event and they were always good. But it’s a real shame that they’re stopping, or at least pausing for now.
The Elephant and Castle event stopped a couple of years ago and I’m not sure if that’s coming back this year either. None of which is very good for anyone interested in the kinds of companies and groups that the maker faires attracted. Now there’s a real gap for this kind of event for both London and the South East. That’s not good, not in my book anyway.
And this one was pretty good too
The second volume of short trips was good too. It was the same format as the first. A range of stories covering the first 8 doctors. All good, some better than others of course. But overall, very enjoyable.
So now I’m reading this, and it’s pretty good actually
This was a recommendation from Marc at Disquiet so I thought I’d check it out. I picked up a copy and started reading it just the other day. It’s actually really good and I’m really getting into it. I can see myself getting through the whole series in the not too distant future too.
Whilst I’m at it, there’s this too
This is a set of pieces I did for a children’s show at the end of last year / the beginning of this year. All the tracks were done in Ableton Live.
Old music from me
Or at least stuff that’s been around for a while and is now collected together. I thought it made a nice collection as I’ve been listening to it whilst walking around and enjoyed it.
