Not too shabby, went to Japan in Jan which was great but I'm now back home with dwindling funds and out of work so hoping something comes up soon to support my decadent lifestyle (eating out once a week and spending £4 on 12 teabags)

How about you, Gene? Happy feb!

Going ok. Set some new year's resolutions and I'm trying to stick to them. Discovered Beetleborgs is on streaming. Trying to get a cowroker to play Expedition 33, which she said she'd do after she finished playing a game called Abiotic Factor. Reading a book called The Secret of Secrets to try and revive my interest in reading. Stupid screens destroying my attention span. Dodgy

How about yourself?

Fingers crossed something comes up for you dude! It’s no fun watching your bank balance drain! How was Japan though, where abouts did you go?

Been looking at going myself, but unsure where or what to go for as I’d like to go to various places… but that’s both money and planning - 2 things I’m not so great with.

@black king sounds cool! Are we planning on launching expeditions into her pants at some point or is she just a work colleague? 👀

A mixed bag of a year for me so far! Work is work, no better no worse really. My car has developed a ticking noise - fixed it by turning the radio up - and now it stinks of burning rubber when I drive it. Can’t get that into a garage until Monday. My other half got Bell’s palsy….then had to go to a&e for stomach pain which they suspect is her gall bladder, now she has covid. They do come in 3’s, apparently I make a pretty good nurse though. The sexy uniform is coming in handy. Heading up to York for valentines weekend though so that’ll be cool, get see some Viking stuff and go to some haunted places. Quite looking forward to it.

Damn first Wayno, then me, now Gene-at this rate the MGF meet-up will be hosted in York.

In Japan I went to Kobe, Kyoto, and Tokyo. I managed to find cheap hostels and didn't really do too much in depth planning as it was all super last minute and it worked out pretty well regardless! Flights were the main expense really.

Cool as she is she's just a work friend. Plus she's married and I generally won't date cowrokers. She's quite the gamer though, plus enjoys learning random fun facts Cool

You didn't go visit Kojima and ask him: "So...why Peace walker when you had a perfectly good PO already sitting there?"
