A little sad today
Due to a problem on my finger I was forced to cut off my wedding ring today. I’ve never taken it off since the day I was married and it’s been many years since I reckon I could actually get it past my knuckle. I had always assumed it would never come off even after…

Tough week
I’m struggling at the moment with anxiety. My anxiety is down to how busy I am professionally along with the lack of daylight in winter. I’ve long suspected that my anxiety and depression are linked to Vit D and my mental state doesn’t usually drop until February so it’s something I need to keep a…

Sniper Elite 5 Review – Single player Campaign
I’m not going to lie, I’m a die hard fan of this series. So needless to say I was excited that it was released on the X-Box Gamepass. When I first played Sniper Elite 3, I was immediately hooked as it was a great alternative to Call of duty run and guns. Admittedly the third…

Where Starships Go To Die #1
An astronaut signs on with a rag tag crew to dive the depths and retrieve a crash starship from the depths of the ocean. Now for me this synopsis ticked all the boxes. It sounded unique with deep water exploration and a diverse cast. Sadly though, once I got into the story it dropped an…
