But you can call me Log. I run a lovely inclusive pub in Sneinton, Nottingham and do an absolutely gorgeous podcast called Regular Features with my friends. Wrote about video games for a bit. G with the LBTQ+

Hmm, I seem to remember Ziggy always giving decimal places to his percentages. Sorry for the lapse in Quantum Leap verité

The Metamorphosis would make a decent episode of Quantum Leap. Al trying to kill a cockroach in the Waiting Room, Sam trying to discharge his familial duties like a gross Mr Blobby. Ziggy predicts a 95% chance of fun

Amazon thinks I am building a power management ecosystem. This is because, when I’m feeling sad, unmoored, lost, and agitated, I buy a power bank
An entry from my About You page on Amazon, that says I am “Consistently expanding power management
ecosystem”

Cheer up, you never know when you’re going to see a life sized Battlecat
A shopfront with tinted windows. Presumably used as storage for a vintage toy trader, as tinted windows are a terrible idea for a shop? The door is open, unusually. There is a massive plastic Battlecat inside. It has considerably improved my mood

haters are calling my new coinage—'Portmantwords'—a "Gross misapplication of the very concept it wishes to implement."

Oh no, checked to see if Scott Thompson from Kids In The Hall has had a redemption arc since “standing with Glinner” and discovered his 2001 New York show was ruined by 9/11. No one was in the mood apparently

Also I can’t believe I called it a combination lock when I had literally just described a permutation lock. I’m sorry guys I let you all down

Unless Bag of Bones is a Doomsday thing? Does Doctor Doom call people bags of bones? Does he toot on that mad conch then say “nyah, you stinky bag of bones! I’ll get you next time, nyah”

National Trust have installed a soul vessel chamber at Hardwick Hall
A triangular wooden structure about one metre high, at the base of which someone has placed a baby doll. The doll is remarkably clean and well presented, which only makes it more likely that it’s a crop sacrifice

I just mistook a larger account for a friend i used to know in London, and responded casually, with reference to “the pub” as though they knew I ran one. The sheer presumption! The not knowing my lane! The putting someone into the position where there’s no way to respond! I must slough my skin

Of course in those days you could get onto TV if you could gargle in tune with your friends, or name a lawnmower from the patterns of the grass cuttings

The fact that Ray Jay said “spook” and “slither” led me, over decades of not seeing his act, to imagine - and eventually remember! - him on his belly, squirming across the stage to the delight of an 1980s audience who couldn’t believe their eyes. So, something of a letdown youtu.be/fxWHy4f9W30?...

If the combination post-it had started with a C (which, while not part of the code, resets any previous inputs), included an X Y or Z (which these locks always do) and let me input the code in any order, this would have been a genuine masterpiece

I’m raging at the combination lock in the clinic of British Silent Hill. Those are purely mechanical locks. You can enter the numbers in any order I *tried* to do this and was greeted with a flashing red LED, that these locks don’t have. Immersion ruined. Get a combination lock consultant in, guys

POV - you are playing THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME and you see me staring at you from the top floor of this building. It is time for a escalator chase
Nottingham Cornerhouse, a three story cinema, arcade and restaurant complex. The entrance is a large glass cylinder that houses the escalators and lifts. You can see all three floors from the street, making it - in my opinion - a great place to play THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME

And when you have substantially less than a billion pounds, it's thrilling if you hide behind a billboard and use your phone as a little periscope. Who has the better life I ask you

Initiated a round of THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME yesterday, where you share locations on WhatsApp and hunt each other around town. I went three stories up a glass building for a dramatic finale, and he went into a Costa. Sometimes i think im the only one taking THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME seriously
