Ah, I'm in Europe so I can't give any specific recommendations with regards to places. However, I would always suggest doing some hiking and camping. It's such a refreshing way to spend time and getting into nature always recharges me. I believe that there are some excellent trails in the that kind of area.

I believe that the languages and packages used by kids in school do a lot of the heavy lifting for them. Whereas the Basic or old C that you'd use for the ZX Spectrum would be very bare bones with you having to do a lot of work for yourself. Plus, I imagine that as code development has moved on a lot since then that a lot of the features you'd expect to have available as a modern developer would be missing. I can't imagine that it'd be too easy to develop a game for.

Witcher 3 is, for me, the best single player game I've every played. Though Ocarina of Time comes a close second - and I never even played it on release only years later when I bought an N64 at uni.

For multiplayer, however, you can't beat Halo with a load of mates round and a crate of beer.

I just finished Wind, Sand and Stars by Antoine de Saint-Exupery. It's an autobiographical piece from the Author of Little Prince about his days flying between the wars.

I'm just about to move onto Femina by Janina Remirez. Which is a history of the world told through the eyes of the deliberately women left out of it. I'm looking forward to it, it sounds excellent. Filling a much needed gap in the popular understanding of women's role in history.
