For the period when we started trying to when we found out we were expecting, it felt like I had a second job.

Great British Menu is back on TV 50000000/10 It’s the best cooking programme ever made and everyone that’s enjoyed the Great British (sigh) Baking Show, would like this. Also Line of Duty is back and continues to be the best as well.

Let’s be honest, neither of these things are great to start a day off properly. Both can definitely be enjoyed in those exact ways, though circumstance kind of dictates whether that’s a healthy enjoyment or not.

I mean, I’m not adverse to being corrupt and soulless soooo

Super Mario Galaxy 2 Wind Waker Pokemon Red Resident Evil 2 (N64) Jesus, if I had to actually go through everything I’d be ranking things like Snowboard Kids...

All I’m saying is, that’s a man that loves ‘arsehole’.

Another month, another round of downloads. It almost makes up for the wealth of shit over the past year.

I moved from one tiny island to a larger one and I’ve moved twice with my wife to live in different parts of the country. I’ve lived it and set myself up straight away by joining a local rugby team which instantly gave me a group of people to socialise with. That would be my only advice - invest in a hobby early if you can (COVID depending).

‘Pissed on my cornflakes’ is another fun, urine-based one.

The UK has the best slang going - so it’s hard to want to absorb somewhere else. Maybe the ethos of the Australian ‘no worries mate.’

Netflix, Prime, Spotify so...£30 or so. I’m tempted by BT Sport fit live rugby but is £25 a month...

More Control and more Undertale. Only four working days until the Easter Holidays so I’m going to try and finish both before that starts so I can move on to something new. I’m tempted to trade in a few Switch games for Luigi's Mansion 3.

RE2 RE2 remake RE4 REmake Resident Evil 7 I’ve completed them all bar REmake which I’ve managed to get about half way through before, but it’s still better than RE5.

I’m vegetarian but would be tempted by insect flour as a better alternative to farming wheat.

I’ve also just downloaded all the non-PSVR games with the Play at Hime thing, so if you have a PS4/5 - give them a go.

I’d be looking at a 5-6 hour indie release to mix it up. I love a AAA , but with the Switch it’s great to have smaller, more focused experienced as well.

Enjoyed a run this morning and then followed it with a 15 minute YouTube stretching routine which seems to have worked (my legs don’t feel dead). But then capped that off by going for a family walk - with a little 16.5lb bundle of fun in a baby backpack walking up a hill for a mile.

I will always love Lord of War regardless of what anyone says about it.

I mean - it’s sad and all, but I can’t really see myself actively wanting to buy anything from those eras where it wouldn’t be a physical copy.

I won’t buy this unless it is an actual new console - not an improved iteration. However, after seeing the mention of Metroid Prime, how have we still not had a Prime collection (offering regular or motion for the first two games) - along with ports of Zero Mission and Samus Returns. I still want to finish MP, but it’s not great via the GC and I’m not overly keen on buying a Wii game in my Wii U to play with the wiimote and nunchuck.

I say automated, for all I know our payroll team are doing everything manually... In the UK, depending on your total income, you receive a proportion of your income that is ‘tax free’. The idea behind this is each month - an expected yearly income average is made and the equivalent tax is taken per month. The great part about this is unless you’ve been at one job consistently for more than a full year, you will be taxed but will most likely not hit the threshold. I've been at my current job since September and worked part time as a student before that - usually not enough per week to hit the taxable income threshold -but have been paying tax each month even though I’ve now just crept into the taxable threshold. As the tax year runs from April to April I’m hoping on a sweet, sweet rebate. It’s happened a few times and it’s like a second Christmas. if it happens, I genuinely can’t wait to pay off some of my credit card and maybe buy some new kitchen cupboards. i just felt like sharing and wondering if you ever receive that joy?

Anyone remember Lee? This feels like a Lee thread.

Picked up a few objects of power in Control and now will try and see off another chapter. I’ve also picked up Golf Story again and more Undertale - where I keep dying to a spider boss as I’m awful at the game and have no healing items.

Main book is War of the Wolf which I’ve just started. I’ve been listening to a charity reading of Lord of the Rings but it’s been a few weeks since an update - so I’ve started reading that to my daughter (as I left The Hobbit at work accidentally). Also on the last 1/4 of the Graveyard Book which is great and also left at work. I could also mention with my class at school we’re reading The Witches, which they’re absolutely loving. Sting of the Dump after that.
