Week Notes - 2026-20

Another week spent in the valley. We completed the community centre bundles in Stardew Valley which is usually where I bounce of the game for the next 12-18 months, honestly. However I carried on and we crafted a ton of quality sprinklers and now have far too many fruits and vegetables to process in a sane amount of time. I think we have space for something like 550 crops on our farm. It's a massive chore getting the fields ready on Day 1 when you still have to water. I did manage to catch a Legendary Fish though. That was cool.

I've stopped playing mostly but since we were smart enough to host the save file on my wife's Switch she can keep playing without me. Apparently time in Skull Cavern slows down in single player so I not sure if I will ever be welcome back??

The rest of my week was mostly spent reading. I finished Monkey King, and thought it was overall pretty decent. The ending felt rushed, but that could just be a by-product of the translation I read. I started Jingo by Terry Pratchett. I am not a massive fan of the Watch stories, but I am warming to this one so far. I feel a pang of sadness each time I read a Discworld book and inch ever closer to the final one.

We watched Good Omens Season 3 on Prime. Whilst it was obviously rushed (being cut down to a single long episode), I don't really get the hate. I'll leave it at that though...

One thing I forgot to do last week was go outside. Oops. I should try and be better next week. 🫠

Every day we've been watching Sam Culley hike the South West Coast Path, learnt about crazy Stardew Valley speedruns, and watched Tom Scott explore the worlds first "smart house".
