Roll of the Dice - my attempt at a single 1992 album

Spent a while with all the songs of the era, at one point had 15 to choose from, sequenced them a few ways. In the end I realised... if a song was a "maybe" it only weakened the record. So I cut it to 10 and I'm pretty happy with it. A tight 40 minutes of only great songs.

This is an album about Bruce as he was in this era - hopeful, gambling on a different band and different sound. Rolling the dice on a leap of faith, hoping for better days. Deeply in love and not afraid to show it.

So:

  1. Roll of the Dice

  2. Lucky Town

  3. Human Touch

  4. Sad Eyes

  5. Trouble River

  6. Better Days

  7. If I Should Fall Behind

  8. Living Proof

  9. Over The Rise

  10. Leap of Faith

Big brisk title track opener. Some "real big songs" to follow. Tender moments. Rockers. Better Days as a side 2 opener. Leap of Faith as a big finish. Never two huge rockers side by side, nor two quiet low-key tracks. A flow between those bigger and smaller moments with high quality, mid paced tracks.

Of course, many of you will comment "what about x track?" - well, these are my picks and I think they hold up pretty well.

Any good new content (quest/dungeon/gameplay) mods since the relaxed limits?

It's cool we are getting some of the larger texture and follower mods now, but I'm not seeing much on "content" being ported.

Anything good coming across to PS5?

How do parents manage school holidays?

I've been lucky enough that my wife has worked in schools since my daughter (6) started there 3 years ago, meaning she gets holidays off and can look after our girl when she's not in school. However my wife is now thinking about changing to a different industry and... we realise we don't understand what other parents do during the 13 weeks a year of school holidays.

How do you manage it? Do you just use up all your holidays as a couple taking separate weeks off to cover the time? Do you pay for holiday clubs and if so how expensive are they? Are you relying on family to have them some of the time?

I totally understand I am probably a total idiot not to know the answer to this, but we just haven't had to think about it until now. Insight very much appreciated.
