Blehhhh…brrrble… buhhh… My brain is squished.
If you’re a Kickstarter backer, you’ll know by now that Digi Level 2 is done (you’ll get it this afternoon, and will have until Friday evening to watch it, when it’ll switch to being a premiere).
Well, barring the extra...

Happy Monday, gang.
Sorry to bore you all with our roof again – but it’s done! Well, almost. He has to come back this week to finish some cement work, but we have a leak-proof house once more. Symbolic.
Thanks for the nice words about Digi Level 2. A lot of you are saying it’s o...

And with that… Digi Level 2 Episode 5 was done. It may even be with you tonight. It’s a lovely, LOVELY episode. It’ll be premiering on the 19th, and we’ll be in the chat for it – but you have a whole week to watch before it goes out to the general population.
I’m now moving stra...

We have men on our roof. I can hear them up there now… bangin’ an’ scrapin’. I’ve closed the curtains, because I don’t want them to see me.
This is the third batch of fellers in our home this week. Yesterday we had a plumber out to fix a persistent dripping f...

It’s Sanja’s birthday! Hurrah! An excuse for me to delay going back to work for another day (though technically I was back in the “office” last Thursday). You don’t need a big long list of superlatives from me, but it’s probably pretty evident how much she means to...

This was a lot of fun - with "special guest" Dan Does - we discussed Wimpy, Playmobile, crescent sausages, racism, and much, much more...! But mostly Wimpy. We also tried and failed to show a bit of Digi Level 2 Ep 5, and met Beanus's twin sister.... Thanks to those who joined us. Happy New Year,...

Well, that’s the end of that year.
Bloody hell. I sort of did a recap last week, so I won’t go over it all again. With hindsight it was a mix of the absolutely terrible, a lot of good, and some stuff that was transformative in a pretty profound way.
It was a year of enormous chan...

A couple of years ago, lovely Kathy Holloway made us a Beanus nutcracker for Christmas. Now she's made us a Beanus caganer. It's amazing and awful and she's wrong in the head.

Here's half an hour of outtakes from our latest video - including Sanja's exciting story about a giant slug, and various other bits and pieces we had no room for.
Sadly, we didn't catch the moment when we were filming the finale - with the UFO lights - and a car stopped to give us assistanc...

Hello, you lot. Well, we’ve had our Christmas Part 1… which comprised our trip to Brighton, followed by the rest of the kids – and grandsons – coming to visit. That was lovely.
The rest of our Christmas should be fairly quiet by our standards, but that’s what we need. I think ther...
2024-12-19 11:15:56 +0000 UTC View PostWe went to Brighton on Friday. Got home about 4.30pm yesterday afternoon and I went straight to bed. Was asleep by 5pm. Between sorting out my mum’s house, the UFO video, and clearing the day job decks for Christmas, it was just sheer exhaustion I think. Still knackered today. Looking forward t...

Something I've been wanting to do for a few months now is release an album of the music I've written for our Digi videos over the past year.
And here it is - just in time for Christmas! It's more ambient soundtrack pieces than traditional songs, but if that's your sort of thing you might l...

It's here! At last! The product of almost six weeks worth of work - the most complex, involved, video we've ever made. Objectively, the best we've ever made too; a proper feature-length documentary, done as only we can.
I've spent every spare minute working on this for over a month, we've ...

The UFO video is done. No, really. Finally… it is complete. It’s rendering (very slowly) as I type, so we’ll give it a watch, check for any errors, then get it uploaded. It’s a whopper, so bear with us while that happens – it won’t be quick. But you’ll k...

Kinnell. I got walloped by a migraine during filming on Friday (you'll actually see the moment it hits during the video). Managed to carry on afterwards, but yesterday I was floored by the postdrome phase, and spent most of it in bed.
Thankfully, way better today (looking at you, Biffo's ...
