Got two sets of dice.
One General RPG set much like those, that I won in a contest.
Another is a World of Warcraft TCG set, in a themed plastic chest.
One of these.

Yesterday was my dad's 78th b'day. Ofcourse we were not in the mood to celebrate, but we still did a little.
We went to my dad's room in the nursinghome, arranged a few chairs. My mom, me, my sister and 2 of her kids, my dad's sister and a daughter of her and our neighbor's wife.
The room was full but it was intense for my dad.
After a bit over an hour we saw him getting tired so we started clearing stuff to say our goodbye for the day. It was the first time that my aunte and cousin saw my dad in this… See More

His newest lung infection has cleared, it's still tough to see my dad like this.. an almost completely helpless man, it hurts.
We do realize this probably was the last time he celebrated his b'day, his body and brain can't take much more then it already took.

Today it is 11 years ago already that they removed 40cm of my large colon... 11 years without that tumor... time has flown by...
Oh wait.. thats tomorrow... today 11 years ago it was the admission in hospital.. either way it has been a minute.

my dad has another lunginfection, but they caught it early so hopefully broadspectrum antibiotics does the trick. He will not be hospitalized anymore so if this doesn't improve it will go downhill and then they will put him asleep so he won't notice the end is nearing.
But we have good hopes it won't go that far since it got caught really early. It's odd it happens so fast again after being hospitalized for it for almost 3 weeks, in about half a week after the hospital in a climate controlled environment… See More
he caught it again.

My days of writing games on the Sinclaire Spectrum 48k+ by copying the text from monthly games magazines. Most of the time there was a misprint and it didn't work. lol

I remember learning this on the TRS lol, then made the jump to doing it on PCDOS Basic
First game I ever made was a one I spent a week typing then saving to cassette, loading it over and over, debugging line by line, then playing with my uncle.
It was a racing game with "Pa Cautious", (my slow driving pop), "Na Leadfoot" (Nana) and "Speedy Von Mark", (My uncle).
3 coloured squares racing around a grey racetrack with random pitstops, and various random obstacles. Game ran for 3 minutes lol.
