There’s a colour of hope in black and white… — A dog barks at it at dusk. A painter paints it. Everyone else thinks nothing of it. Branches in winter, frozen in time by the eerily silent slumber of everything you used to think alive. Hangouts for crows gossiping and cussing, apart from the days the snow finds its way…

LEGO makes biology cool again with their new Insect Collection set… — Apologies for reminding you of your early school days. If you’re anything like my dad, it was the most traumatic experience of your life. To this day, he wakes up screaming at night, having had nightmares about being back at school. Honestly, I can’t say I have too many fond…

And I, for one, saw it coming… — Hang on. Where is my “I told you so” banner? Ahh, there we go. Under the bed. I knew it would come in handy someday! 😁 Jokes aside, the TLDR of this story is as simple and as straightforward as I imagined it would be when the time came. Major…

Apple’s worst event in a decade… — Can’t begin this report with anything more fitting than my best friend’s remark as we were watching the event: “remember when these used to be exciting?”. Yup. I definitely can. It was just a few short months ago when Apple announced Vision Pro and other goodies. This time around? Not…

Just like the classic jet, LEGO pushes the boundaries of what’s possible with LEGO bricks. Review of the new Concorde LEGO set, some interesting supersonic facts and lots of nostalgia… — If you wanted to get to New York from London in just three hours, you either… Wait. There were no options. You either boarded the Concorde or you had to settle for a 7–8 hour trip on a Jumbo. While this is a famous example of just how fast the…

Apparently #BatteryGate is back. Or, what’s more likely, many users forgot how batteries work… — Oh, how the pundits like to call everything a #SomethingGate to make an extra buck, or get an extra like. Look, I get it. Apple does make mistakes and when it does, it’s really embarrassing. #BendGate was definitely one to remember. I feel, though, that since the iPhone 6 started…

Everything you need to know and more about the latest Harry Potter, Hogwarts Castle and Grounds LEGO set. — You might assume — wrongly — that I am a Harry Potter fan. I’ll admit, I have seen all the movies, and I used to have a crush on Hermione, but who didn’t? I enjoyed every Harry Potter movie, but as a movie and nothing more. I never became an…

For the first time in a decade, I’m very much considering an Android smartphone, and perhaps you should too… — Forget foldables and flip phones. Sure, they’re cool if you like bending plastic screens or seeing creases in the middle. If you’re in South Korea, they seem to be virtually the only kind of phone people own these days — according to Netflix, anyway. As “innovative” they may seem though…

Everything you need to know about the new LEGO Icons Tranquil Garden, set #10315… — I might have mentioned a few times just how much I love LEGO’s Botanical Collection sets. This isn’t one of them, but you’ll be absolutely forgiven for thinking it is because it brings everything a Botanical Collection set would and more. Whether the LEGO Group made this conscious choice to…
