Archives for: September 2011
Welcome to my blog, my name is Catherine Woolley and I work as a Designer in the games industry in the UK.
I am a graduate of the University of Wales, Newport and games are pretty much my life. I'm a massive fan and player of games from all genres and platforms.
I use this blog for any work I produce, reviews, general musings and whatever tickles my fancy to be honest. Please feel free to comment on any of my posts.
I would also like to point out that all views expressed on this website are not those of my employer and are those solely of my own.
Proudly taking part in the One a Day Project

I know I shouldn't… more »

I say generally, what I really mean is always, I've considered usin… more »
Two Hundred and Sixty Eight: Clever girl!
Came home to an awesome t-shirt I bought off Qwertee recently, I couldn't resist as I'd seen the design before and knew I wanted it.

Two Hundred and Sixty Seven: A Spectacular Sunday to finish of the Eurogamer Expo

Two Hundred and Sixty Six: A Superb Saturday at Eurogamer Expo
So day two rolled around and I was starting to wish I was staying in a hotel as opposed to coming home each night. I was feeling a bit tired after getting home late and was hoping I'd perk up a little during the day.
There was a lack of gameplaying f… more »
