Sometimes having a Dad who works in the games industry is the coolest thing in the world for them. Other times it's confusing and spoils all the fun.

While playing computer games with my kids:

Daughter in a panic: "Papa don't get the moving platform you're on too close to the enemies!"

Me calmly: "It's okay. They probably can't generate navmesh on a dynamic entity."

Kid both confused together: "What?"

@Schemerwoude Mystery solved. Thanks 😊 I'm still going to tell my kids that they have awoken a vengeful spirit though

My kids think they have found a bit of bone in the garden. I don't know what it is but if it is bone it's kind of disturbing that it seems to have been sawn.

The funny thing is, when you come across Dutch people wearing clogs for real you usually hear them before you see them. It's a very reasonable sound.

I'm used to occasionally seeing real life Dutch people wearing wooden clogs but today I spotted a father and daughter team wearing them together in the supermarket. The clogs of the little girl had a leopard print pattern on them.

I've been a contributor to @Dutchthemag for a few years now. I write a regular column and comic strip.

Recently I got to share some of my crazy stories on their podcast. If you've ever wondered if my cartoon of myself is accurate check it out.

I'm in my mid-forties. You'd think by now I'd be used to how it gets lighter in the mornings as we get closer to summer. However, each year I still react with surprise when it starts happening, as if it's the weirdest thing in the world.

@AliBess I know. It's crazy how fast time goes isn't it.

As my daughter becomes a young teenager I've discovered how easily I can embarrass her now. On the one hand it has taken some of the challenges out of it, but on the other there is a simple joy in seeing how extreme her reaction has become.

@DownieSeb Being both busy and lazy at the same time 😄

[Stuart B 🇬🇧 🇳🇱 @Accidentally_NL]

@DownieSeb Just saying...

[Stuart B 🇬🇧 🇳🇱 @Accidentally_NL]

@cmdrstarion It seems like a good fit to me 😄

[Stuart B 🇬🇧 🇳🇱 @Accidentally_NL]

@DownieSeb Yeah. It was so stupid that they gave him a new body with all the problems of old age.

[Stuart B 🇬🇧 🇳🇱 @Accidentally_NL]

@DownieSeb I tried to watch season 1 & 2 but could not do it. They were horrible. Season three is great. The only thing you need to know from seasion 1 is Picard died and got put into a synthetic body.

Okay, when I read the article it turned out it was a different train line but for a while this morning I thought badgers had almost stopped me getting home last night.

Last night I got stranded at train station in Friesland. My wife had to come and pick me up in the car. #FriesianProblems
