My Uncle Pete, aged 95, gave up his drivers licence yesterday after 79 years driving. He drove semis, the first model Holdens, and this jeep in Korea. Without any tickets!!! Beat that record people.

Some pictures from our annual #dnd marathon session. The Heroes are traversing a Beholder's den, deep in the realm of Shadowfell. A brutal grind. Vampires, Trolls, Zombies and Helmed Horror akimbo!

A video pan one of my players took as we began our multi-hour #dnd marathon. The vestibule is quiet, lined with fallen debris, old barrels of junk and a row of enlarged statues at the end of the hall... Diablo soundtrack for vibes 🎵
