I was in Nottingham, Robin Hood country, this weekend. I was attending a charismatic evangelical conference for people in their twenties and thirties. My parents wanted to visit Nottingham as well, so we went together and they did some sight seeing while I attended the conference. I had stayed at the Jury's Inn hotel before and so I recommended us to stay there.
I was born in Nottingham and my parents both come from that city. It's changed a lot since then, of course. I noticed that a lot of people sounded a lot like how I talk when I am speaking a little less posh.
I met up with my parents on Sunday after the conference had finished. We went on a pub crawl, visiting several pubs in the city. Among them was Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, which is the oldest pub in the country, founded in 1189. It is actually built into the rock immediately below Nottingham Castle.
After out pub crawl, we went to a trendy steak house type restaurant. I had a crispy duck salad, followed by some BBQ pork ribs. I asked for a Sam Adams lager to drink with this, but they had ran out, so I instead I had a Camden Hells Lager.
Games Workshop has their headquarters in Nottingham, and this morning, the hotel was filled with Games Workshop employees from Spain, France and Italy. It was odd to see so many in one place.

Star Wars Commission
Another Star Wars commission drawn for me by ~Warpentak-Prime (https://www.deviantart.com/warpentak-prime) Please check out his page and consider him for work.
In this orginal scene, the senior crew of a Star Destroyer are taken prisoner by a Rebel boarding party. Any suggestions as to the background of the characters or the story are welcome.
Worse Happens at Sea
Ugasanie and Xerxes the Dark: Abysmal
~single-leg (https://www.deviantart.com/single-leg) likes ambient recordings rom Cryo Chamber. They have indeed put out some really atmospheric releases. 'Abysmal' by Ugasanie and Xerxes the Dark is my favorite. It can be summed up by an old British expression "Worse happens at sea."
Abysmal captures the mood of creature features about sea monsters. That terrifiying sense of isolation of being out in the desolate empty oceans, coupled with the expectation that there is some horrific monster lurking in the depths below. It's a soundtrack to the greatest sea monster film never made.
The sound is constructed from waves, bubbles, sonar blee

Imperial Girls
I commissioned ~Warpentak-Prime (https://www.deviantart.com/warpentak-prime) to draw me an original scene, featuring Princess Leia capturing two female TIE fighter pilots.
I haven't come up with any kind of story for this, but it features two original characters, an human and a Zeltron TIE fighters pilots.
Does anybody have a backstory for my two Imperial girls and how they managed to get captured by Leia after the defeat of the Emperor? Maybe you might inspire me to actually do some writing.

What is the Nottingham accent like? Its not one you hear of often as compared to all the other regional ways of speaking. This is like halfway between the North and South right?
Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem Pub! What beers did you drink there?
Amazing that Sam Adams has found its way into the UK.
Also Im sure the fall foliage is quite beautiful up there.
