Trying to find the time to work my way through these Fighting Fantasy books I found in a charity shop. Spectral Stalkers was fun. I must make more effort.
I never had - or remember seeing - any of these titles back in the day.
Here's a 'Nyet problem!' ALF badge from my collection.
How big was ALF in the USSR / Russia?
This ALF Bouillabaseball Melmac Orbiters hand puppet and flexi-disc record 'Take Me ALF to the Ballgame' were part of a Burger King campaign in 1988.
On this day in history: ALF premiered on NBC on the 22nd September 1986.
Atmosfear - The Video Board Game. A charity shop find.
I never had this back in the day.
Have you ever played it, or one of its sequels?
Just dug out a Regular Show t-shirt I bought about a decade ago. It's the only Regular Show one I've ever seen.
Are there any/many other designs out there?
A Metrolink tram and a Northern train at Altrincham Interchange station in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, England last Friday.
Altrincham Interchange is a transport hub that is home to a bus station, heavy rail operated by Northern, and light rail through the Manchester Metrolink - where it is the terminus of two lines. The station also sees freight trains pass through it.

Well, two hauls.
I usually, if ever, only see the odd Commodore 64 game while out and about. But I found all these games in two recent wanders.
Now working through playing them all!
Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea, Hampshire, England.
This was the first course we played on what would become our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.
The venue has two 9-hole courses - the Victory Trail and the Warrior Trail.
We first played the Victory Trail on the 30th September 2006.
A few trains spotted at Stockport railway station in Greater Manchester this evening.
A Transport for Wales Class 197 heading southbound.
Spotted in Edgeley, Stockport, Greater Manchester this evening.
Doing a little bit of office work in-between playing games on this rainy Saturday afternoon.
I picked up this 1985 Mini Office tape from Summit's 299 range for £1 in a Cash Converters recently.
Did anyone actually use this software in their business back in the day?
Sadly it is now a lost minigolf course since the holiday park closed in 2023.
I spotted this RSQ-SV222 Video CD Player on a second-hand stall on a market. It's the first full-size VCD player I've seen IRL.
I would've bought it, however it had quite bad damage to the right side and corner, and there was no way to test it on the stall.
Still, interesting to see such things exist and can be found in the wild.
Northern Class 156 Super Sprinter trains passing each other in Shaw Heath, Stockport, Greater Manchester earlier this evening.
156409 was heading towards Stockport railway station. 156411's next station stop would've been Davenport.
