Hard of Hearing. I like cats, Lego, guitars and baking cakes.

Accessibility nerd. Either at the computer, playing a guitar or a game.

I like to potter around in the garden too (but only when the weather is nice).

Historian with a specialisation in Genocide and Eastern Europe between 1940-1990.

And usually has a cup of tea in hand.

Ugh. Trying to move to a new server and I've made an alias and got stuck. All the guides that people have sent recently don't make any sense :/

Managed to get a same day doctors appointment. Feels a bit like I won the lottery 😆

I called 111 and they got me a phone appointment with my GP. She called and we had a chat. Told me I should come to the surgery as really needed to listen to my chest to make sure it was clear (I’m asthmatic).

Waiting for a taxi now as I’ve not really got the energy to walk there and back. And since I’ll have to end up buying medication, I wont be able to afford the taxi back so will have to walk home.

Right, let's give this Mastodon thing a go! I made the Scottish BAFTA winning SOLAS 128 with a sound designer and composer. It's a game of interconnected puzzles where you redirect and reconfigure rhythmic pulses of light to breathe life back into an ancient machine.

You can get it on @itchio right now, and can even play a free demo, with all unique puzzles, right in the browser!

Check it out, if you like: https://armor-games-studios.itch.io/solas-128

Red sky in morning, shepherd's warning!

This is an omen that bad weather is on the way - and it's rooted in science.

A red sunrise can suggest there is a lot of water in the atmosphere. So I won't be surprised if it rains later!

I’m awake too early and I can’t stop coughing. Might be another day on the sofa for me. I admit defeat. This cold and flu medicine isn’t doing much and I’m not getting any better with sleep.

I won’t be able to get an appointment at the GP though so might have a chat to the people at 111 to see if I can jump the queue at the walk in centre :/

Wish me luck :/
