Found this amazing bird statue called ‘Rook with a Book’ in a town called Fowey. It’s dedicated to Daphne Du Maurier

I made a mistake in this post, the photography event is happening on the 22nd of October, just booked my timeslot for it. It’s being run by the London Camera Exchange and Sony alongside a wildlife photographer. It’ll be fun to check out different lenses and techniques.

Had an email from the Countdown team yesterday, they gave me several date and time choices for a video audition, so I’ll be auditioning next Friday at noon. Plenty of time to get some practice in.

After a long day of shuffling around yesterday and a full morning of shuffling around today, no wonder I’m so exhausted.

Got a 3 hour drive down to Cornwall tomorrow, then on Saturday we’re going to the Eden Project. Always wanted to go since it looks amazing, not just for all the plant life but also the spectacle of the enormous domes housing everything.

Downloading the Witcher 3 Remastered on Switch 2. Was curious how easy they’d make it to redeem the free upgrade, and they updated the original game with a store link to the free download for the remaster.

Munchlax Lego set is built. The tree stump is really nicely designed and could be used in all kinds of builds, Munchlax looks great as well with the perfect shade of green/teal. Also an Easter egg inside the tree stump; a pokeball pattern with the number 446, Munchlax’s national Pokédex number.

Was able to pick up the Lego Astro Bot set. Glad it was available to buy separately on the PS Direct store instead of having to buy the PS1 set for it to be a ‘free gift’.

Went to the Royal Albert Hall this morning and saw the Royal College of Music as well. Then went into Kensington Gardens and saw the Prince Albert Memorial and Kensington Palace. Now at Paddington waiting for our train home.

Some tourists from New York asked us for help getting to Hammersmith. Told them we aren’t from London but that Hammersmith shouldn’t be too bad to get to.

Picked up two books and a Lego set today. The bookseller was really enthusiastic about the Minotaur book which was encouraging.

Made a very brief stop at the huge Waterstones in Piccadilly, I’d already bought a couple of books from a different shop so didn’t get anything here but it was nice to explore. And it’s enormous.

Got through to the Zelda concert tickets in London and they only had hospitality tickets left. No chance I’m paying over £1000 for a ticket

The view from the Battersea chimney lift was pretty incredible, you could see virtually all of London. I only took a few pictures on my phone, so will have to upload the pictures from my camera later

Battersea Power Station is pretty cool

Took quite a few photos today while on the tour bus, but some came out quite shaky. Overall I think they came out pretty well.

Just arrived in London, had some nice views from the train window

Haven’t been able to sleep yet, luckily our train isn’t until nearly noon so I don’t have to be awake really early. Had a bit of a health issue earlier on today which I think could’ve been the start of a seizure, or was at least a very small one. Even so it was a horrible sensation.

I didn’t realise that there’s a mural for Control Resonant in London, might try and see that if we have time or if I’m not too tired.

Finished Orbitals tonight. Had a great time overall despite some weirdness in the game, although there is a lot that happens on screen towards the end. It only took us about an hour to finish from where we saved last time, the rest of the time was just spent chatting which was nice

A screenshot from the game Orbitals. Maki is holding lots of peaches and eating one of them, she is saying

There’re plenty!

Looking for things to do in London on Wednesday and decided to go to Battersea Power Station, never been there before and it’s been changed into a huge shopping centre with lots of places to eat. And we’ve booked a timeslot for the Chimney Lift as well.

We made time to go to the grave today instead of Monday. Put some fresh flowers down and did a little bit of a tidy up, but it needs some more care and attention. Next time we’re taking gardening gloves, trowels and sponges to really clean it up, and lay some new gravel as well.

Matt Wilmott @itsmattwilmott.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

The game has a handheld graphics preset which is nice but it’s still very demanding. I think jittery is the right term for the performance, but in the few fights there have been it’s not dropped too much which I was surprised at. But it’s still very early on.

I’m being incredibly optimistic/foolish by installing Control Resonant on Steam Deck. It won’t be the smoothest experience of all time but as long as it’s not wildly inconsistent I can live with it. Then I’ll have to find others to play Big Walk with too.

Would’ve been dad’s birthday today, we can’t make it to the grave today but going down on Monday with some flowers and to tidy up the surroundings.
