Delving through the family album has rekindled fond memories for Nick
-
About a year ago, I needed to print a shipping label for work. No big deal, right? Wrong. Ever since our last day in the office back in 2020, I simply hadn't needed to print anything, so I didn't own a printer.
Fortunately, my sister had a printer she'd been keeping in storage since she left university, so I only had to pay for some new ink cartridges - and better yet, the integrated scanner allowed me to finally get on with scanning our family photos, which I'd wanted to do for a very long time. If you've been reading for a while, you've probably seen one particular photo of me receiving a Master System II for my birthday (the first of many), but I found enough other gaming-related photos that I thought it would be fun to share some in the magazine.

It's-a me, Pauline!
My daughter turned 16 this year, which means I've officially entered the stage of parenthood where anything I say is answered with eye-rolling.
