Just found out one of my friends passed away suddenly yesterday, to say I'm gutted is an understatement. We were only just talking about hanging out soon and all 😔

Will have some souvenir keyrings to give away for you to remember your time at the Scotiacon Barkade 2026

Hubby made a really cool sign for the Scotiacon Barkade

I'll be looking for some help running the Scotiacon Barkade in February, I usually run it for 12 hours a day every day of the con so as you can imagine it leaves me with little time to do anything else. If you're interested drop me a DM and I'll get back to you ASAP

It has arrived!

Her last chance for survival.......her last escape!

Sorry I've not been very active as of late, had a lot of personal stuff to deal with and I'm finally feeling like I've worked through it. Definitely aiming to get myself back out there and start seeing folk again

You can't walk through Shenmue's most iconic location without seeing a massive SEGA logo emblazoned across the skyline. The two are forever linked, so why is it that @sega-west.bsky.social won't help finish the series it pioneered? #LetsGetShenmue4

Thought this was a nice cover youtu.be/exvzOKMbbTw?...

After watching this I suddenly find myself hurting less and understanding myself more youtu.be/RxrJoKrjcIE?...

Movie night with Xan, very excited for this

I want to start feeling less empty again and getting back out there to meet new people and create a new chapter in my life.

Actually riding on such a big high this weekend after hanging out with a new friend and my bestie ❤️

1 month to go before I'm in Tokyo!

When the duck racing in Shenmue 2 gets real

Decided to play Shenmue before I go to Japan. I'll be spending my birthday in Yokosuka where the game is based. It's going to be so surreal walking down the actual Dobuita street after walking down it so many times in the game.

Movie night with Xan

Movie night with my bestie!

I may have faked some smiles to pretend I was ok, this weekend was not one of those times. Hanging out with the right people really feels like therapy

Does anyone else make playlists to remind you of the important people in your life?

Double bill at the cinema tonight with Xan

Movie night with Xan

Feeling called out

Actually smiled like a complete idiot today because a certain someone I've recently got on well with called me a friend 🧡 Right in the feels, I needed that.

Planning out all of the places I'm visiting in Tokyo, Osaka and Yokohama. I'm insanely excited about my trip to Japan

Ticking off a bucket list holiday this year! Spending my birthday and three weeks in Japan, I'm beyond excited!

Time to plunder some booty

This has been the worst bout of con crud ever, I've been bed ridden for 3 days straight now

Trying on @leohmann.dad at the Barkade was great fun, I look extra cute and I think i need to get my own head sorted out

Always get the big sads tearing down the Barkade every year, lot of good times and memories

Scotiacon Barkade 2025 set up

Movie night with my best friendo to chill out before Scotiacon

My hubby made another great room sign for the Barkade

And the last console for the Scotiacon Barkade is ready to be packed up

Lightgun games will be making a return to the Scotiacon Barkade this year

Can't wait to open the doors to the Scotiacon Barkade next week and show what I've been cooking up

Pay day, and that means some shopping for the Scotiacon Barkade

Weary travellers, the Scotiacon Barkade 2025 has been approved. The dinosaurs have been removed and the potion shop is getting it's supplies ready......See you in February #Scotiacon #Barkade

Last night was so mild that I slept outside in the back garden staring at the stars, it was peaceful
