Hello there
Well first up, it wasn't a holiday, but it's a nice title so we don't need to be pedantic about it.
Here is a video for you where I essentially walk you round my garden showing you stuff. When I put it like that it's not so appealing, but we've had two days running o...

Hello there
I am going to dispense with any grand intro here, and just present to you this story.
This is the first bespoke story I've written for Tales From Castle Diablo, although it shan't be the first story in the collection. It is called "Re-Test" and I've not incl...

Hello there
Here is the pilot episode of Reboot which is myself, Rob and Jon having a long chat about all manner of stuff, personal and general.
As I flagged up in the video the other day, there were tech issues which took a looooooong time to edit. I m...

Hello there
This isn't a real post, which is why it is being snuck out to you on a Sunday which is now my Patreon day of rest. I wrote this before the hiatus and it was originally scheduled for the 4th March, but then I went off so I parked it to bring it to you at a later date. &...

Hello there
It's Cabin Fever podcast day, and here we are with new highs in utter blabber.
It was, as is often the custom, a late night slurry train of consciousness, with a Wonder Stuff song on the autoharp at the end. If you feel like you need know more than ...

Hello there (as I said in the title)
Long time no see (if we don't count the free booty call Cabin Fever Podcasts I forced upon you when we were meant to be on a break). Here I am in a video for you where we can all get back up to speed with where we are at.
There's lit...

Hello there
Here I am with another free one for you, which I'd actually completely forgotten about so recorded it quick this evening (Saturday).
In my mind I am doing these as a kindness so there is something for you for free whilst the payments are paused, but in reality they may be ...

Hello there
Slightly delayed freebie Cabin Fever to touch base whilst I'm away. Don't forget you haven't been charged/fined for March on this Patreon.
Some high drama (to me) discussed in here, as well as a right awful go of an autoharp at the end which was somewhat ine...

Hello there
Just a little touching base with this Cabin Fever podcast for free in your month off paying/my month off doing.
Usual blabbering on and getting you up to speed with stuff, and a little added autoharp right at the end which is equally optional.
Here's the carnage in c...

Hello there
EDIT 1:
Just a reminder, in case some folk haven't realised, that you haven't been charged for the month of March. Just in case people had missed it and were wondering where all the posts were.
Hello there
Well here we are with a very special post of a very special and exclusive little film.
I know February claimed itself to be Codnor month, but there are bits left over and I wouldn't see you go without. This is the first one, which is the original recce, when myself, ...

Hello there
Apologies for late night drama but I’m pausing the billing on Patreon for a month. Have completely fallen apart over here, and feel in kind of crisis mode. So, rather than subject you to that I’ll duck out for a bit and take a breath and plan of action.

Hello there
Today I bring you a video (yes, another video) where I take you through the pre-shoot aesthetic check of Codnor.
It's basically a walk-through of the farm house, which Simon and I filmed during the recce, so you get to have a wander through with us. It's shame I didn...

As mentioned in yesterday's Cabin Fever podcast with Jon, here is the completed pilot episode of The Rocky Robot Show.

A little different on the Cabin Fever podcast front this week as I had to record it whilst Jon was at my house for our working meetings.

Hello there
So, my daily offering for your audio consumption today is a one-off podcast where I play the autoharp.
I must stress that this is a one-off so don't be leaving loads of comments begging for me to do more of them because, as I say, one-off innit?
There's only three so...

Here's the last of the tombstone build videos of the little mini-series I've been doing.
It's not strictly the last of the videos relating to this build as there is one more to come which ties up loose ends and is far more informative (he says before he's ...

Every now and then, I'm showing you a thing from behind the scenes in the ongoing production movements of The Rocky Robot Show.

We are getting so so close now. Couple of hiccups here again, but am in the process of riding it out and the next video, whenever that is, will be the concluding part.

Hey, I shall tell you straight, this one is for hardcore only.
I found this a genuine struggle to record on this occasion, and listening back to it just now I think you can tell. There were some tech/distraction issues early on, which I explain, but it's defin...

I was gonna take a day off Patreon today, as I've had a sudden spurt of creative vigour coupled with a wave of pouty sulking that everything work wise is pointless. However, I ultimately decided to not take that out on you, so no day off in the end..

Okay, that title is a huge exaggeration/clickbait, but I’ve plonked myself down at my desk this morning to jot down a few thoughts. Like I do sometimes.
It’s been a mega-heavy video week, and I’ve found myself a bit tuckered out from it. Not just the putting to...

As I said in the blurb bit for yesterday's post, I'm doing a trio of consecutive video posts of the tombstone video, of which this is the second one (but Part 5 overall).
