Brassica and Emperors

Sucker for free stuff

It’s been over a year since I last posted at my defunct expat grad student blog, and I’ve been thinking about getting back into it for quite some time. Attending a day of Northern Voice provided some inspiration, enough to investigate WordPress and create Brassica and Emperors but not enough to really do anything with it. The possibility of a free Pro account on Zooomr for bloggers seems to have tipped the scales. I am devotedly addicted to flickr, but the geotagging functionality at Zooomr seems like it could be fun to play with.

Supposedly fun games I’ll have to check out some time

Collected mostly from Matthew Baldwin’s games reviews at defectiveyeti.com and at The Morning News. I wrote down a list before Christmas, then didn’t manage to fit a games store into my shopping time. So that I can recycle the paper:

China or Web of Power
Cluzzle or Barbarossa
Fairy Tale
Ingenious or Travel Blockes
Settlers of Catan
Ticket to Ride
Carcassonne
Bohnanza
Mamma Mia
Category 5
Hera & Zeus
Niagara, Diamant, Ra and For Sale
Jambo
That’s Life
Around the World in 80 Days
