Week 262: Blue Prince

Blue Prince is so good, it’s very rewarding finding lots of little secrets and solving puzzles that span multiple rooms across the house. We’re playing a little bit most nights and we quickly realised we’d need a physical notebook to write down all the clues and information. It’s too early to say but this could easily jump to the very top of my list of puzzle games.

On Friday we headed to Richmond to see Misdomer Murders on Stage and it was great. Daniel Casey did a good job of stepping into John Nettles’ shoes 👍 the staging was excellent, and they replicated flashbacks and memory sequences in a way that was so true to the TV series.

On Saturday, Charlotte and I went to Blackheath fireworks via a curry. Despite it being ridiculously crowded the show was actually amazing, not complaining but when did we start doing fireworks along to music? I just don’t remember it from childhood. We made ourselves feel very ill on a spinny ride, never again.

I’m feeling more invigorated about the union again now that we’ve got a new officer and we’re able to focus more on growing membership instead of casework. It’s why I joined and it’s more suited to my skills. Our last newsletter was full of information and we’re ready to start increasing numbers again.

I’m a bit obsessed with a new lunch at home, it sparks a lot of joy, Charlotte thinks it’s disgusting. It’s a tin of mackerel fillets in tomato sauce on toast, and it’s wonderful. I’m craving fish and I wonder if I’m deficient in something.

After a couple of weeks of treating it with suspicion, the lads (well, Tom Barnaby) have finally accepted their new radiator bed. It’s cute.
