Get in. Don't ask. We goin'?

No daffodils were harmed in the making of this episode. 😀 "All the Top Gear, still no idea."

Image from Artemis II at 40,000 miles away from Earth. Carl Sagan would have loved this. Hopefully all go for the translunar injection burn late this evening UK time... then Artemis II will be on the way to the moon! 🙂

My friend - it's the words, it's the feeling, it's the history - the medium always suffers, but the story never ends. :)

Just finished watching #strangerthings - Damn, that was good writing. :)

It is indeed. A mk1 Polo GLS. :)

If anyone fancies coming to see me talk at the PicoCon SF conference in London on Saturday 7th (Imperial College London), tickets are available here. :) www.imperialcollegeunion.org/shop/csp/sci...

Grow old? Maybe. Grow up? Never! 😉 34 years between these pics. Still love an 80s VW.

That's it. Car is parked on top of a mountain and will never move again! ;)

Achievement unlocked. You have no idea how satisfying this was. Peak nerd.

I understand there will be tickets available as well if anyone is interested in popping along - more details when I have them! :)

I've been invited to be a guest of honour and give the keynote speech at the PicoCon SF convention in London on the 7th of March!

Previous speakers > Terry Pratchett, Iain M. Banks, Robert Holdstock, Peter F. Hamilton and Alistair Reynolds... not in the least bit intimidating!

You can take the boy out of the 80s, but you can never take the 80s out of the boy...

I've walked like an Egyptian, moonwalked, walked on the wild-side, walked this way, walked on sunshine, walked all over you, walked the line, done the walk of life... and since moving to Scotland I've had to walk 500 miles and then walk 500 more. No wonder I'm tired.

It is morning and Ember the Cakestealer is utterly invigorated.

Circumstantial evidence only... ;)

No daddy, I didn't bounce on the sofa bed and accidentally tip it over... I mean, where's the evidence?

If my dog was a character in the #LordsofMidnight ;)

Mighty brave, or might stupid! 😅🤣😎👀

Well... howdi doodily doo! From a time when America was still cool, a classic Jeep joins the fleet!

Government drops plans for mandatory digital ID to work in UK There will still be digital checks on those starting a new job, but people will not need to hold a digital ID.

Well, it was a stupid idea back in the early 2000s and it's a stupid idea today. However, this is good news. Now that we aren't going to be forced to use it, we can decide whether it's useful to us or not. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Quick Drone Footage of Snow in North East Scotland 2026. YouTube video by Drew Wagar

A little drone footage of the snow here. Enjoy! :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFJ_...

Dawn is my favourite time of day. :)

Day 8 of snow. After a bit of a thaw, temps dropped and more snow came down. Pretty in the dawn sun though. :)

Morning! 🤣😅🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Done it twice... snowed back in! Can't seem to summon my Cobra mk3!

Moar snowz.

Snow! Scotland. :)

He he...

Right fellow travellers in space and time. Signing off socials for the holidays, see you in the New Year! Have a wonderful Christmas. :)
