Everyone's happy!

Also, what controllers do you have with your Retropi these days? Would you like me to bring my USB Saturn pad?

I have the sega ones you recommended last year and 2 360 pads for more complicated systems


You're not trying to tell me that you actually went with a recommendation off the forum are you? Is this a first?!?!

If I could make £1k+ a month breaking into cars, removing stereos and flipping them at Cash Converters I'd strongly think about it.

After the preceding chapters Myp: Normal Guy and Myp II: Relentlessly Woke, it was surprise for this somehow enduring franchise to take a hard right turn into Myp III: The Purge. Yet here we are.

Option one, turn up at station at original time, see if there's a rail replacement or get the later bus. Option 2, get silly early coach to Exeter and then another bus or two to the station and pick up the train from that point...

MaliA always suggests getting as far up the line as one can as early as one can lest something happens between where you are and where you could have been.

I try to enjoy the journey as part of the break. I can relax and listen to music/podcasts or read. I suppose it's nice to not have to drive and just chill, looking forward to the next few days. :)

I certainly normally do that, but getting up at 05:00 and getting 3 busses before a train journey is a little vexing. Still, 2 busses down, 1 to go.
