Chi-Con 2013
I’m knackered! After a harrowing six long days of seasonal retail work* it was with some small relief that I had a day off. And rather than spend it sensibly tucked up in bed recovering I decided to venture out into the crisp chill of this weekend and saunter along (11 year old in tow) […]

Its set aboard a spaceship (at this time the name is still being decided) where a lazy and […]
