At last it can be revealed... the full story of our Polish flat tire, and the stupid car we were "upgraded" to. I've been hesitant to share this, because I'm in SUCH a bad mood during it - a combin...

Don’t worry. This isn’t about Doctor Who. Might write about The Last of Us for the upper tiers this week though…
The past month or so has been reeeeeeeal...
2025-04-14 12:33:26 +0000 UTC View PostSorry. More Doctor Who. I've had a chance to reflect on that first episode, and watched it again with Sanja yesterday. Well, almost. The first 10 minutes annoyed her so much that she chose to nap t...

Sorry I didn't get this to you sooner. I was going to put it out next week, but last week's video did so badly we thought we'd make it live today instead.
This is a bit of an experiment; seei...

I’m in the midst of editing the third of the Poland videos. It’s very different to the other two – though has the same cutaway animation style. It’s ...
2025-03-26 10:37:17 +0000 UTC View PostHappy Sunday. New video’s doing well – by our standards anyway – so that’s pleasant. All moving forwards nicely.
