Photography, Aurora Battleship St Petersburg Russia

The ship that signaled the start of the Russian Revolution in 1917, on display in St Petersburg. This was one of the main things I wanted to see while in Russia and I am glad that I did. I do like a nice old battleship and this one comes with some interesting history.


Classic 1980's Gaming Chuckie Egg!


I moved at from my parents over 10 years ago now and I now live a good distance away a few counties south. So I don't get home all to often, but on a recent visit I found myself in the loft digging through boxes of my youthful belongings. Its amazing what you find and forget what you owned. So under my extensive stamp collection and next to a box of early nineties cassette tapes I found Chuckie Egg an old game for my Atari. 


I spent a huge amount of time playing this as a young man! The cover makes it look better graphically than it was. It took about 10 minutes to load, so you really had to want to play it if you invested your time in loading the damn thing.
