The Garage in Highbury and Islington is a fairly small venue. I would have thought the Union Chapel, just down the road and where Slow Club played a Christmas gig, would hold more people, but perhaps the Garage's lack of pews gets more people crammed in. 'So many ...

I admit that I am one of those RP weirdos who keeps a change of clothes for when I am in Stormwind and Dalaran. I feel much better walking around in a pretty dress and hat than stuck in heavy armour all the time, particularly when draenei are naturally ...

Listening to Livya raving about Blackrock Depths for fifty levels was amusing. I'm sure when I started running the instance years ago I was full of wonder and awe at the sheer size of the dungeon and convoluted corridors and connected rooms. But after many visits, most notably ...
