Day 2 of Whisky Advent. The Caduro from Derbyshire distillery Wire Works. It’s a relatively new discovery but a cracking local whisky! #WhiskyAdvent #Whisky #WireWorks #Caduro #Day2

Great to see media coverage of the hostile and punitive approach taken by management at @sheffielduni.bsky.social towards @sheffielducu.bsky.social staff striking to protect jobs. Threats and intimidation won't work. We're out until we win! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Another morning out on the UCU picket line. At least the weather’s a little sunnier today. #UCU @sheffielducu.bsky.social @ucu.org.uk #UCU #supportthestrike

In tonight’s Mythic Bastionland it’s still eternal winter. The knights meet not one but two seers, vow to murder the Windmill Knight and regret a bit of spring looting… #MythicBastionland @bastionland.bsky.social #TTRPG #whydidwestealthatcrown #seers #windmillknight

This year I am taking over whisky advent calendar duties from @neiljmathews.bsky.social. First up is the original Monkey Shoulder. #whisky #whiskyadventcalendar #monkeyshoulder

Some of our furrier members have been enjoying our strong turnout over the past couple of weeks. Lots of comrades to cuddle #picketpups

A change of scenery for this morning’s picket. A great showing of colleagues (and dogs!) outside Firth Court. @sheffielducu.bsky.social @ucu.org.uk #SupporttheStrike #UCU

Nice day for a bit of industrial action. Striking today with my excellent @sheffielducu.bsky.social colleagues.

Yet another morning at the UCU picket line. Another reminder why: www.ucu.org.uk/article/1423... @sheffielducu.bsky.social @ucu.org.uk #supportthestrike

Warming up with a pint of stout and a book. #pintofstout #book #keepingwarm

Twink obliteration - pairs brilliantly with coffee, a crisp sauvignon blanc, or schadenfreude.

Another day on the picket line with @sheffielducu.bsky.social. Here’s why we’re out in the cold and rain/sleet: www.ucu.org.uk/article/1423... #UCU #Supportthestrike @ucu.org.uk

The eternal winter stretches on for the brave knights of the Realm. Could this have something to do with the mysterious Green Man #MythicBastionland #TTRPG @bastionland.bsky.social @nottopgearrh.swifties.social @jenduckie.bsky.social @ptwiddle.bsky.social @plandysheffield.bsky.social

I hate gay Hallowe’en, what do you mean you’ve come as a newly opened nightclub in Uttoxeter with ideas above its station?

More books I have read in 2025 #books #sf @naominovik.bsky.social #Temeraire #StephenBaxter #TheExpanse #PeterFHamilton

I really enjoyed @aptshadow.bsky.social’s ‘The Tiger and the Wolf’, the first in the Echoes of the Fall series. Now I really want to play a TTRPG based in this world. Can anyone make this happen?

More books that I read this year. #books #sf #OctaviaEButler #Patternists #GereonRath #Heinlein @aptshadow.bsky.social #EchoesoftheFall

I found quite a bargain in the Hillsborough branch of Mind! #TTRPG #Spire @gshowitt.bsky.social @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social #Hillsborough

New Quinns Quest episode! ▶️💿 You know I had to play a campaign of Triangle Agency. It won Best Writing, Best Rules and Best Game at the Ennies this year. But how does it actually play? Let's find out www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk-g...

Friday night and it’s blind, non-binary, bisexual drag king Tito Bone with an amazing set! #KingTitoBone #DragKing #nonbinary #Sheffield

Tonight was the finale of our #Slugblaster campaign. An emotional farewell to our beloved characters and a final chance to kick-flip over a quantum centipede. Thanks to @thebadspot.bsky.social, @jenduckie.bsky.social, @ptwiddle.bsky.social & @the-sanctorum.bsky.social. #TTRPG #Slugblaster #FFWD

In our penultimate session of hot new TTRPG ‘Slugblaster’, the FFWD crew heal some fractures, play a music festival in Popularia and face off against BRB, Shimmer and the Arborists for an item that could change the face of the multiverse itself! #TTRPG #Slugblaster #FFWD ⏩ @wilkiescandylab.com

Please welcome the new Chaos Dwarf team ‘Reiszlyka Phoenix’. #BloodBowl #ChaosDwarf #Chorf #Warhammer #ReiszlykaPhoenix

We are racing to the end of our Slugblaster campaign and it has taken a toll on our plucky teens. Sadly, tonight’s run was a bridge too far and after many arguments, betrayals and misunderstandings, the ⏩️ crew have split up. Can they patch things up? Or has the camel’s back broken beyond repair?

Session 5 of hot new TTRPG ‘Slugblaster’ sees the FFWD take a visit to Thennis Spar, avoid Shimmer’s goons and escape a firefight in an Arborist Temple. #TTRPG #Slugblaster #FFWD ⏩ #anyoneforthennis @mythworks.bsky.social @wilkiescandylab.com @thebadspot.bsky.social

A night of Blood on the Clocktower at the Treehouse Sheffield. Thanks to everyone for a great evening of murder etc. #BotC #BloodontheClocktower #AdvancedScripts @bloodontheclocktower.com

Episode 3 of Neighbours-themed roleplaying game, ‘The Perfect Blend’, sees the aftermath of a fire at the Waterhole, Lou receiving an emergency tracheotomy - again… and a canine invasion of Charlene’s kitchen tea. #Neighbours #SaveNeighbours #TTRPG #ThePerfectBlend
