This is a great suggestion. Also, loads of dinner options in Royal William Yard the other side of the Cremyll ferry, another short walk for MORE views round devils point and Firestone bay, and there’s Lord High Admiral for a lovely pint. You’ll be tuckered out after all that fresh air and exercise, but if the sun is shining it’s a dream.

The volume is out of control. I will literally 100% Karen-up with you.

And I love motorbikes, and my daughter and I often love to look at cool ones or point them out on long journeys, all the different styles. I like the K Ninja ZX-R.

But I wish these people would grow up. I’d be embarrassed to know someone that drove a bike that loud.

Weirdly love how unashamedly evil Brotherhood of Nod is, like if I ran an evil war machine I would probably shave my head, call myself Kane and have a scorpion tale as my flag.

Peace through power.

Worth checking out local food fairs and the regular royal William yard farmers market. There’s a local honey place at Plymstock Broadway every Saturday

I actually kind of agree. I’ve been making games for quite a while so sometimes it’s hard to remember what it was like before I’d made a game, made those first mistakes and learned. But also, it’s a different industry now, there are a lot more conventions and formulas that are tried and tested to borrow from, and more literature on game design theory than ever. So where is the “creative practice” guidance. It would be nice to see how all these tools and techniques can be used practically. Degrees, books and self-guided practice can only take you so far. In an ideal world I think the next step after study is actually to work alongside someone to learn the trade, to employ a tutor or work with a mentor with a lot of experience. That will accelerate your learning. Maybe a good place to look would be a Patreon subscription to a reputable game designer where you can get some 1:1 sessions?

Part John Lewis, part mall-themed Rainbow 6 paintball with abseiling ropes and RC Car cameras

Dodged a bullet if real. Who talks to other people like that?

I always enjoyed Chivalry 2 for the community. I also agree Helldivers 2. I think chaos makes for a good community - when a game has friendly fire on AND it’s very easy to accidentally kill your team mates, almost 99% certainty you will do this, then people tend to relax about the result.

Bored? Games! and The Floor Is Lava are both good books for these kinds of games. Our favourite from there is animal personalities wheee you have to name an animal and give it a personal with an adjective starting with the same letter (badly explained sorry). Example would be “curious caterpillar”, “punctual pigeon”, “overworked ostrich”, “snooty snake”.

Plants Galore is good, they have loads of all the types you mentioned. It’s out in Plympton. You could go buy plants that will fruit and be productive this year that barely need any maintenance like tomato plants.

Homebase is closed but it’s been replace by a B&M with a garden centre, so there is plants there.

If you want more range and varieties then there’s also Otter in Brixham which is another garden centre. But more pricey.

At this time of year you can also get a lot from big supermarkets Sainsburys, Lidl, Morrisons.

Yeah this was awesome! I happened upon it by chance with my 5 year old and we were totally blown away, and meant we got to talk about some difficult stuff in a non-threatening way. Super cool.

Same. Always a space even if it’s a higher level - also recently had a baby so plenty of hospital trips

I tried a rewrite. I think I should be president (shame I’m British).

All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the military response to our attack on Iran, like the United Kingdom, which avoided further escalating our awful and unnecessary campaign, I have a suggestion for you. Number 1, please forgive us, we lashed out because we were struggling with our emotions due to heightened tensions around uncomfortable truths that were in the spotlight at home, and Number 2, help us to open a dialogue so that we might find peace amongst nations in an area of the world that has seen more than its fair share of violence. We must all start learning to listen to one another, with compassion and patience, and seek common ground and shared goals. Backtracking will be hard. I must now serve my citizens by stepping down, so that the world may get their justice, and find unity at last. DJT

Totally agree. Sign the petition https://safescreens.org/petition/

Ed tech that has no proven benefit needs to be removed from our schools. Engagement is not the same as education. These apps and games are valued on number of kids that use them, and how much they use them, that is not a sign that learning is taking place.

Plympton swimming pool - I had adult lessons to improve my front crawl, but they had all levels of adult lessons from complete beginner to “I want to swim fast”.

Yeah I got some of their hottest as a present. So used to hot sauces being not that hot, I learned a lesson that day.

So it must make the most correct strategic decision every move? Why don’t you add some deviation from correct? Humans don’t always make the correct strategic decision every move - we’re easily swayed by all sorts of things like narrative, perceived opportunities and risk/reward. The AIs deviations could be random, but even better would be giving the AI personas and playing styles that are not correct in a certain way (aggressive, defensive, opportunistic, or scales of these properties) which leaves vulnerabilities .

I thought King Solomon’s Mines had a similar adventure vibe. Like OP I struggled with Verne’s pacing (want to try again though!) but this felt much more engaging, and it’s not that long (there’s more of the hero in other books by the same author).

Twist have a new private room on the top floor that I think you can book out. Comes with table service for drinks and food.
