I'm

The Hello there and welcome to the Midlife Gamer podcast. Today is Monday, the 26th of November 2012.

My name is Darren Baldock and with me, as always, my good friend and buddy, Mr Matthew Moore. How are you, brother? Do you really want to know? Yeah, I do.

I'm really good. Okay, that's all right then. You're going to spring something on me then.

So, okay, a couple of explanations here, I think, are warranted. Firstly, we kind of promised a numbered show in the last conference call, it's fair to say.

And why are we recording on a Monday?

Well, let me explain to you, listeners, boys and girls.

There's a bout of severe weather going on in the UK at the moment and my thoughts instantly

go out to to anybody who's suffering at the hands of the flooding right now.

I am, I'm close, it's fair to say, to that action at the moment.

So not so much here in MLG 2.0.

But over at Lady Fister, she lives in a village which can effectively become cut off entirely from civilization.

There's only three roads that lead into the centre of the village.

And one of them was cut off yesterday.

And if anybody followed me on Twitter,

they will have seen the photo that I tweeted,

which was literally yards from Lady Fister's front door.

Fortunately, I was able to escape the village of the damned this morning

and get myself into the office.

But unfortunately, I wasn't able to leave there yesterday.

And, you know, I could have done some crazy Skype science, but it would have sounded

shit and, you know, you wouldn't have appreciated it.
