If you're into any of the following: science fiction and fantasy novels, space-themed video games, modified and classic cars, electronic music, astronomy or just general making, repairing and fixing stuff... you're in the right place!

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

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.

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

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...

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

Gil Gerard death: Actor known for β€˜Buck Rogers in the 25th Century’ dies aged 82 Actor played astronaut Buck Rogers, who is frozen for 504 years in space and revived in 2491

Sad news - #GilGerard, star of the 80s show "Buck Rogers in the 25th century" has died at 82. I did enjoy that show (well, bits of season 1). It was a great premise, but rather camp and silly in execution - and doesn't really hold up well today.
