Huge fan of their Inktober prints!

'ealth and safety.. it's all a gimmick, mate.
A man fixing ridge tiles. He's sitting astride the roof, with no safety harness. The roof is wet, it has been drizzling since 6am. It's a four storey building.

Reminded me of the old White Dwarf article "Green and Pleasant Language" by the doyen of the British rpg scene, Marcus Rowland.

Mummerset, '.. used by authors who can't be bothered to research the correct vocabulary for the area in question'.

The slang section is pretty good.

Last of the Christmas snacks 'n' nibbles 😔
A table in an alcove in the lounge. We have, a tub of kp (salted) peanuts, a tub of waitress pistachio nuts, tubs of twiglets and mini cheddars, and a box of m&s cherry liqueurs - in various states of emptiness. They surround a glass bowl of mixed chocolates - quality street, Cadburys and a couple of lindor chocs.

Home from a visit to Wantage to find the Postie has been.
@irny.bsky.social has produced another stonking book - KickStarted last year.
Once again, production values are through the roof.
The map (Tottenham Court Rd tube) and postcards are top-notch.
Looking forward to giving this a read/run.
Terminus, a system neutral TTRPG horror scenario set in modern London. The book sits on the red tissue-paper that it was wrapped in. The book has a mosaic design, which is picked out in a glorious gloss coat/varnish. Blurb from the back cover (not shown). London's new Underground line has finally opened. and people have begun to go missing at Tottenham Court Road. Strange disappearances esoteric architecture, and buried secrets combine in this system-neutral horror scenario for tabletop roleplaying games, set in modern London. Map (folded) and post cards.
