  I'm a Hario version of the clever dripper enjoyer and honestly, I'm in the world of let it brew for at least 3 mins before draining into a cup but often it's longer and I get pretty good results once I've fiddled with the grind a bit.

  I'm curious what the good options are in the space - will probably never do it but would like to have a look anyway!

  I've done a fair amount of putting together synth modules, imagine this might be a bit more complicated/treacherous?

  I was actually thinking about picking up the little brother s2 - glad to hear you're enjoying it.

  With all the resident evil love I feel compelled to say I finished Alan Wake 2 - different game but an absolute master piece.
  Such great narrative gameplay. I don't think I've played anything quite as proficient at pulling you through a story and it not getting boring or feeling restrictive.

  Agree with previous sentiment it's more scare / jumpy than I'd usually tolerate but, Alan Wake 2 is awesome - so worth being out of my comfort zone.

  It's a great amalgamation of Twin Peaks and L.A. Noire and a million other things, feels like a total bargain at £40 when you look around what folk pay for some games cough diablo 4

  Also started playing Alan Wake 2, enjoying it so far but haven't got very far.

  I've gone the Geforce Now route as my PC wouldn't cope and I think I'll play Cyberpunk after which will also benefit from all the fancy RTX gubbins. Cool service, seems to work really well and even though £17.99 a month for the 4080 tier is pretty pricey that's a lot of months before you'd have paid off a 40XX card.

  There's pretty much no room - door out to the balcony on the left, wall/bookcase on the right. I do think I'll go stands either side of the TV on the long wall - have to run cables over the door for that though.

  I haven't had anything done for like 3 years, but then I guess there's a lot of us in that boat when you think about why!

  Curious, has anyone tried Thomas Hooper since he moved back over this way?

  Will likely get something small in the next couple of months or so, or at least look up Xam to finish up my arms.

  Yeah, these are ace!

  Yup, this was pretty much exactly what I was alluding to!

  I think I'll probably find a way to move the speakers to the wall along the left - but then they're on the long axis in a long room. There's no winning really.
