It's that time of year again: we're looking for our next Antarctic team!

If you can imagine a job that’s needed to keep a small, remote community safe and running, we have it.

Escape the ordinary and apply for the job of a lifetime in Antarctica ⬇️

Enjoy! Did the same but with Sisu

Very sucky. Dad and brother buried me.

I'm not even sure how I finished LotT back in pre-internet days. Must try and revisit my GOG copy.

Think mine was Lure of the Temptress on the Atari ST. Can't remember much of my Acorn Electron gaming days other than sucking at Chucky Egg.

Fully agree. I have a little old deaf cat who just brightens my day (well, when she's not screaming around the house at 3am that is!)

Can't stand discord, it's useless for proper discussions, help, support etc. Forums really need to come back.

How’s this for a way to start the new year!? Enjoying London’s fireworks at 1,500 feet above the city and a pass right over Heathrow.

Labour are the experts in self sabotage.

A Nativity scene made with toys with the usual cast of characters and a pink dinosaur.

This turns things on its head.

Nah, just start another game

A book cover for The Furthest Station by BG en Aaronovitch. A sketched map is partly covered by a red stain with Chesham written over it.

Time for a quick trip to see Peter Grant and a few things going bump.

Paddington "bear" costume from the musical. Looks rather feline.

I didn't realise that Paddington was a cat, I've been wrong all these years.

So glad I made a massive batch of roast potatoes and froze them.

Roasties whenever I want!

If it's a chip butty it has to be butter and salad cream. Red sauce for all other chip related dishes.

Agree with the cheese sarnie though.

Salad cream not red sauce!

Don't worry, I'm sure it'll all get changed for Christmas as well just to add to the fun and games.

Forbidden Solitaire on Steam Forbidden Solitaire is a card-slashing horror game about unearthing the contents of a cryptic 1995 CD-ROM that should have never existed. From the creators of Ancient Enemy and Home Safety Hotline.

Anyway, this is our game, which is pretty cool. Please take a look and wishlist if it's your thing:

I hope the y-axis numbers are weeks!

Good luck with it and I can't wait to get my hands on it!

I’ve built a streamlined version of Pacman, that you can play on any device.

Oooh, boxed MicroProse game with all the paperwork.
Swoon.

Enjoy the trip!

I always wonder what happened to my Atari ST once I left to go to university. Just vanished. Grrr parents.

Should have bottled it, eau de auto

The first one is on my watch list tonight. I really need batshit crazy today.

What was wrong with the old one?

At least having a bad cough keeping me awake at night during the week means, fingers crossed, it'll be gone by the weekend.
I can then sleep all weekend ready to be bright eyed and bushy tailed for work on Monday. Hooray.

Cat/Griffin!
