Manchester folk, where's good to park for Albert Hall on a weekday evening? QPark is stupidly expensive.

Kicked off the Secrets of the Dragon Emperor campaign for Dragonbane tonight with @dragongirl74.bsky.social @edoffannyside.bsky.social @gianniseviltwin.bsky.social @laticsexile.bsky.social @trebormills.bsky.social. That first encounter is proving tougher than I thought - great fun!

Following up on my www.dungeonland.co.uk purchase, these arrived in pristine condition a day early. Great service, highly recommended. They also have an active Discord server which I'm quite enjoying.

Must not buy more games... 😣 Ok, so just this one. And the Dragonbane Bestiary. 😬 I picked up Pirate Borg pdf in a bundle not long ago, only just read it & was blown away. Chock full of flavour, a brilliant toolkit & an easy read. It may be appearing at a Virtual Grogmeet near you soon.

Pollinators in the UK are dropping rapidly, partly due to how much pesticides we use. France has banned pesticides from towns and cities, and many other European nations are trying to do the same. Even though insects are so small, they have a huge impact and we need to protect them. act.gp/41dxd0E

Really pleased that my daughter has started reading HP Lovecraft of her own accord and really likes what she's reading. Time to push Call of Cthulhu...

Checkout this is tidy modern horror game based on Cairn, I've yet to play it but it looks cool.

Spent the afternoon playing around with the FoundryVTT Dragonbane module for a campaign starting this week. It's so good, brilliantly done and looks amazing. I'm excited to start this game.

I use Docker to run FoundryVTT on my Mac and it was running like a dog. After upgrading to Sonoma 14.7.3 it's blazingly fast... no idea why, but I'm very happy with it. Think it'll be a while until I upgrade to Sequoia and it's Apple Intelligence gubbins.
