I bought something off Aliexpress with an American plug on it. It came with this adaptor which, as far as I can tell, is absolutely useless. |

100%. Without the earth prong, the other holes don't open up. Well, they're not supposed to anyway! |

It's amazing that there's a factory somewhere in the world that's making these. You'd have thought someone would have said something? |

This big slab of a book is 'Gamesmaster: The Oral History'. I ordered it on Kickstarter and I've been really excited to receive it. It tells the story of Games master series by series and so far, it's brilliant. |

This book is ace! I can't put it down. I've just got to the infamous Dave Perry/Mario 64 incident but I've got to go out so I shall look forward to reading that when I get back. A massive thumbs up from me. |

From what I've read over the years, both of them (Dave and Dominik) were being utter pricks. They did do Dave proper dirty, but then he was being a prick, so

I think we had a car like that in a slightly more raspberry colour but it was stolen. Obviously they’re a hot commodity. Not sure what a strawberry unicorn is but I’m mad you don’t have it because it sounds aces. |

Just ordered a new iPad Air, the 2022 Model. I was waiting to see what the new Pro would bring, but the dire exchange rate has meant big price rises. Apple have added £110 to the Air, but it’s still available at the old price at John Lewis so I got in quick. |
