Got these cool headphones to go with my portable audio player and I was sure I’d seen the same make used as a prop in an 80s sci-fi movie like Terminator or Aliens but upon searching all I can find is an appearance in Solarbabies (1986)

Played Lords of Vegas this evening. I often describe this board game as “What if Monopoly was a good game?”

Hmm… so I switched to my smaller PVM and it seems to work great. So there must be some specific quirk on the BVM I need to account for. Always blows me away how great old pixel art games look on CRT.

Had a little party last night to celebrate my daughter Mórrígan. (Obviously wasn’t going to do a Christening)
Had a lovely spread of cheese and set up a little retro game corner.
Also displayed a signed Jim Fitzpatrick print of his artwork of The Mórrígan.
Was a fun night.
