Dead Island 2 - 8/10. Throughly enjoyed it, so much so that I went through and completed all the side missions before finishing the main game. Nothing ground breaking but simple creative FPS fun.

Didn't think to take pics as I was building it, here's its current state: So far its straight forward enough and a lot easier than the MouldKing ISD Monarch that I've done previously.

That looks pretty decent, I ended up picking up a copy of the UCS Falcon for £120 from Marstoy, so far the quality has been decent and its an interesting build, although not a clue where I'm going to put it once done.

Wife and I really enjoy this show, first episode of this season felt quite rushed but still good.

Had a 2018 GT for a few years facelift (10 speed auto, magna ride), lovely capable car, however what I will say like most new large powerful cars with modern systems, driving at sensible(ish) speeds its kinda boring, other than the accompanying noise it feels no difference from any other car and...

I ordered some track from YourWobb a while back for my Lad to use with his Lego train sets, all worked together without issue.

Too late now but an other option would be an inline Zigbee switch like this:- https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08RYT9XGL/ Put this on the feed to the extractor, which will always be live due to the bathroom lights being Hue. Then setup a simple routine under Alexa or whatever home assistant...

I'm really curious, what are you eating for just £2 a day?

Many years back I was made redundant from a perm job and walked away with a years cash, I then got into contracting for a number of years and adopted the mindset of maintaining that backup fund incase I was ever to be out or work again. So now I try and have funds that allow at least a year...

If you have to do an annual self assessment then you will need to put in any interest earned on savings, following which you will be asked to pay the Taxman after submission of the self assessment.

£225 for me, from 50k. Seems to be my running average, would have been nice to have a larger win. :p

Ending episode felt rushed but a decent conclusion, hope they leave it as it is now and don't try and string out more with Rick and Michonne.

I'm currently looking for a couple of new MagSafe charging docks but its seems to be a minefield, is there really a difference between the named docks such as Belkin that go for over £100 compared to those you see advertised on Amazon with the same specs at around £30-40?

For a season finale it didn't bring any conclusion, add a twist, or even add anything new; Just more of what we have already seen and knew, shame as I like series but get the feeling it may be canned before a second season.

Didn't have enough time to climb all those stairs, although did do a fair amount of climbing at Gullfoss falls, that scale of that place was just insane! Iceland 2024 - Gullfoss Falls 05 by Andy Baker, on Flickr

How soon? Tomorrow! Currently eyeing a Crucial X9 4TB, £222 which is three times what I paid for the old mechanical drive back in 2019.
