Had an amazing 40th birthday on 27th, thanks to everyone involved. Here’s a little video I made of Jam through the last 40 years 🙂

I’ve been thinking about making a couple of time capsules, one of which would be buried. I’ve read into it a bit online and seen a few YouTube videos. I am wondering if sealing the capsule in its own concrete box would preserve it for hundreds of years longer than normal? Would it be waterproof? Or airtight? Or would it make no difference at all other than harder for people to open? If anybody reads this and knows the answer feel free to get in touch replying here. 😃
Getting this done rather quickly. Still have a legion of cards to do and praying my printer has a bit of info in it. Some ingredients arrived today. Problem make a back up set just in case. I was worried I’d find making a rulebook a rather daunting take but (it’s) such a simple game set that I could probably fit it all on a piece of A4. I must redo the probably ratios of the 3 Turn dice. Without them it could whittle on forever with 56 combinations.
Got my Sponge making me dinner tonight and it sounds delicious. How did I get so lucky? Came so close to giving up and she was a mile away all along.
I recently had a chat on Twitter with Ian Livingstone. I had mentioned in a tweet that of late I came up with a game formula based on one of his works. I never expected a reply but received two, along the lines of ‘go ahead and build your idea then get back to me’. Even nicer he congratulated our engagement. So last night I started work, and will construct a scaled down version of the idea out of bits of scrap paper and cardboard. Once complete, I’ll play test it and if all goes well, make a demo video for him.
My Sponge came round tonight for dinner. We decided to be naughty and have a takeaway. That’s not a euthamism. I miss her so much when she’s not around.
Apparently there’s going to be a High School reunion later this year. It’s be nice to see a few. A very small few. In the cold light of day I hated high school and a lot of my schoolmates… maybe half a dozen staff as well. I’m happy with what I have now. Don’t need demons of yesteryear to reenter my life.
A lovely day out geocaching and being romantic 🙂
Will soon have a set of the first 10 Discworld books by Terry Pratchett. Victoria’s recommended them for me and I shall commence after finishing sharkpunk. Lovely few days here have ended, today’s been a total washout. Anyways, got engaged with Victoria so there’s something that’s brightened my day 🙂
It’s so important everybody has the right to vote. As far as I am aware the is only forfeited by jailed criminals. So why is it that women that have fallen on hard times in it isn’t even their fault have their right to vote taken from them when they have had to go into refuge.
This is absolutely appalling and surely not beyond the wit of politicians or other powers that be to come up with a system which they are anonymous to exposure and can still vote.
Please, whoever you are reading this blog, share, like and sign this online petition. It is so important!
And many thanks, Jam x
