I’ve loved plushies since I was a little girl and that hasn’t changed as I’ve gotten older, they’ve just gotten more geekier. Between my original 80’s Care Bears, my fiance’s Pokemon plushies and our combined World of Warcraft ones we’ve got a nice collection growing. Plushies are a gift that transcends all barriers and I’ve yet to meet a geek who hasn’t melted when presented with an adorable plushie – especially if it’s from their favourite fandom! They’re fun and innocence all wrapped up in one and that is what makes them such a perfect gift for the holidays. As mentioned in my Gift GuideRead More →

Honestly not much happened in that month so skipping ahead to December and January instead. Christmas Markets There are two Christmas markets in Glasgow each year and we used to go to at least one of them regularly before our health problems got too bad. Every year we try to get there but are unable to do so, so it was great to be able to do it this year! It was just such a shame that the markets themselves were aRead More →

Now that you’ve worked out that your geek is a gamer the next important thing to do is to find out which device they use if they are a video game player. This is especially important if you are going to get them a new game (I would suggest using their wish list so you do not buy one they already have) or a gift card (see below for details). There are multiple different devices now and if you don’t know which one they use then the chances of you purchasing something they can’t use is high. If in doubt; don’t buy an actual game.Read More →

This week Fandom 5 is about podcasts and since I don’t actually follow any (I occasionally listen in to Chris’ ones) I decided to do the one from the previous week which I missed.   Game of Thrones I love fantasy, I like the themes in the show/novels and yet I just can’t get into it. I’ve tried reading one of the books, I’ve watched 1-2 seasons and I’m just not hooked in the slightest. I’m not ruling it out completely, but at the moment, I have so many other books and tv shows I want to read/watch that it is very far down inRead More →
