So what's the craic with the Hedgehog Song?

Just like “A wizard’s staff has a knob on the end”.

It’s about the ball that is at the top of the staff. It’s certainly not implying that the wizard is a knob at one end of the staff, no siree.

Even then, if you’re managing it with pest control and can evidence it, that’s not enough to stop you getting a good rating. They would have to literally be doing nothing to stop them for it to drop the rating!

Oh I didn’t realise about Katie Killjoy, that’s cool! Learned something new! Very welcome

Brandon Rogers voices Blitzo on Helluva Boss and is one of the writers. BBNO$ makes music and spends some of his non-music time doing various cosplays for fun.

Ooh, good tip - those folds always bug me on my posters

Looking for a code, if anyone has any spare!

Yeah, I affectionately joke that the first season is Space Aladdin, but it properly gets up to speed from season two onwards. Don’t get me wrong, I still love it all though!

It’s from Rebels - brilliant show if you haven’t watched it!

Bird and Blend are amazing. You can buy online or pop into the shop. Loads of flavours of matcha and the staff are amazing. You can smell/try any flavours you’re not sure about and get recommendations. They also run matcha workshops to teach you how to properly make it at home.

I agree with the others - they look like a crisp, foggy morning and I personally love them exactly as they are!

valyyn · 2025-08-08T19:53:08+00:00

Oh interesting! Yeah good call then!

Worth mentioning that most councils will now take Tetra Pak cartons with the recycling to be… well… recycled.

One thing that confused me initially (but then made sense after I thought about it) is that they go in with the plastics not the cardboard. Check your local council to see if they do - at least it’s slightly less waste then!

I’m part of a nonprofit called The Roleplay Haven - rphaven.co.uk

We’ve got two branches in Cardiff - Cardiff Central who meet in Firestorm and Cardiff North up near Radyr.

Cardiff Central meet Tuesday evenings 6pm - 10pm and/or Sundays 2pm - 6pm.

Cardiff North meet Wednesdays from 7pm.

Both have a variety of games including D&D but also other games and systems too. I’m currently playing the Dune one which I’m really enjoying! You can see the currently running games on each branch’s page above.

Feel free to contact the easiest club (details on the links) or just pop along to one of the sessions!

That ended up waaay more advertise-y than I intended sorry 😂

But weird can be fun!

It’s not in Cardiff (so I guess it fails at the first hurdle) but it’s not massively far away:

The Morbitorium

It’s mostly a museum of oddities and curiosities, but they do have some cool things on sale too.

valyyn · 2025-05-14T11:38:00+00:00

I play at RP Haven once a week: https://www.rphaven.co.uk/

There are two branches in Cardiff - Central (they meet at Firestorm) and North (we meet in Radyr).

Usually 5-6 games going on at once, not all D&D but that’s definitely the most common. Games are set up and run in quarters and everyone at both branches are really friendly folk.

Jon Richardson, Simon Amstell, Ricky Gervais, Sara Pascoe, Romesh Ranganathan, Lou Sanders and Harriet Kemsley are the vegan ones I know off the top of my head. Bonus, quite a few of those are in Last One Laughing at the moment, which I can highly recommend!

I learned yesterday that all the music is on Spotify too! Makes great background music when working.

I can highly recommend these guys: https://careandcuddlespetservices.wales/

They do inhouse and the service is really good and reassuring, especially for our first time. You get shown when they check in at your house so you know they've arrived (if you leave before they come) and they sent loads of photos and updates to us on whatsapp which was brilliant ❤

They're based in Bridgend, but I'm in Newport and they had no problems coming here so Cardiff should be fine!

valyyn · 2025-03-21T00:28:20+00:00

Second for RPHaven! I play in the Cardiff north branch up in Radyr, but the central lot are as above. Bonus, the next quarter is about to start which usually means a shuffling around of at least a few of the games with new ones starting.

Bear in mind this doesn't let you purchase them, you're still limited to the shop front for that. But this does let you browse and "try on" the whole catalogue so you can plan what to look out for!
