James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I was just very grateful you didn’t make me sleep outside on the frozen Montreal streets. Such kindness. 020
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 05/06/2026He was amazing. And lovely. And brilliant. And so so funny, and so so generous with his laughter at every recording. The most wonderful infectious childlike laugh. Bloody hell I’m sad he’s gone. 2120
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 05/06/2026I spent every moment of it thinking ‘OH MY GOD IT’S GILES FROM BUFFY!!’ but was so keen not to seem like a starstruck fanboy that I never told him how amazing he was and now it’s too late. So I guess I’ll say it anyway: 180
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 05/06/2026My feeds are so wonderfully filled with love and sadness for Tony Head, from those who met and worked with him and those who were just fans. I had the pleasure of being both, when I worked with him making four series of Bleak Expectations for Radio 4. 1120

James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 21/02/2026Top 9 board games. There are others I rate as high as some of these, but I haven’t played those enough yet to set their ratings in stone. (Santorini will always be my 10/10.) 151
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 03/02/2026How can I turn my obsession with board gaming into a highly-paid side hustle? ‘Board Gaming Consultant to the Rich and Famous’ — is that a thing? 110

James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Where can I watch the full episodes of The Day Today on my actual TV, and not have to dirty myself with low resolution YouTube bootleg uploads? Surely it’s available LEGALLY on a TV channel / streaming service somewhere?! 140

James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 07/04/2025#DisneyVillainous challenge game 6. Had to check Syndrome’s booklet a lot for clarification and still not sure I got it totally right, but for the first time I WON! Lily was pretty close behind me with Madam Mim but I was able to keep knocking her back with Fate cards. 🦠 🤖 #boardgames #boardgamer 060
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 07/04/2025#DisneyVillainous challenge game 5. Lady Tremaine’s goal seems easy to achieve compared to Lotso’s. But then you (I) do an innocuous Discard Cards action allowing Lily to move all her heroes to the Caterpillar Room on my turn and win out of nowhere. I shouted ‘What? NO!!’ 🍑🐻 #boardgames #boardgamer 040
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 03/04/2025Game 4 of my challenge to play all the #DisneyVillainous ‘expandalone’ characters with Lily (11). I (the Horned King) had turned ¾ of my Ancient Soldiers to Cauldron Born and was poised to swap the 4th on my next turn… but then she (Gaston) won. AGAIN. ☠️ #boardgame #boardgames 030

James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 31/03/2025Game 3 of my #DisneyVillainous expansion characters challenge. Rattigan (Lily) beat Yzma (me) pretty easily. I hadn’t even managed to get Kuzco out of my Fate decks. 🦙 This is despite Lily’s first hand Lily having The Robot Queen in it, and the second Fate card I drew being Basil. 🐀 #boardgames 030
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 31/03/2025Game 2 of my #DisneyVillainous expansion characters challenge. Scar (Lily) beat Pete (me) after I suggested I was very close to winning unless Lily started using more Fate actions and then accidentally revealed one of Pete’s goals making it easier for her to destroy me. 🦁 #boardgames 040
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 29/03/2025Game 1 of my challenge to play all of the #DisneyVillainous expansion characters with Lily. Mother Gothel (Lily) beat Cruella (me) when I was only at 66 stolen puppies. 🐾 #boardgames #perfectlywretched 060
James Bachman @mrjamesbachman.bsky.social · 13/01/2025Catching the children (and ourselves) up on Philomena Cunk now we’re back in the UK and I don’t remember having laughed as much at a joke in literal decades as I did at her Cuban Missile Crisis misunderstanding last night. Genuine tears of gasping laughter for minutes. Joyous. 050
