(Yeah, I wear a hat indoors nowadays. What of it? 🤠)

Huge thanks to @leoh1138 and @wyrd.science for reviewing #CroydonSpaceport: Mission Control - our daft little solo journalling game of municipal bureaucracy.
Wyrd Science is a very handsome magazine, packed with good stuff from #RPGs and beyond. And it smells as good as it looks!

You know what all this Artemis II stuff reminds us of, don’t you?
Yeah, it’s a bit like that time when Poppet 1 - the Croydon space programme’s 1970 test launch - collided with an unusually substantial seagull and crash-landed across several back gardens and the bowling green at Penge Conservative Club. Except, of course, this Artemis II bunch actually made it a bit further than Penge...
Still, at least nobody from Croydon Spaceport had to contend with an invitation to the White House. 😱

“We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard. And also because if we don’t do it, those gits in Bromley will do it first.”
These are the infamous words of Croydon’s inaugural mayor Councillor Bobby ‘BB’ Bibby back in 1965, as he launched his ambitious bid to be the first London borough to land a human on the moon. And it very nearly worked…

Happy new year, Croydonauts! 🚀
Now here's a thing: with a bit of spare time on my hands the other day, I thought I'd make a start on the latest donations to the Croydon Spaceport archive.
After a few minutes of thumbing through the usual familiar ephemera, my enthusiasm began to flag. However, just then something bright and exciting rose to the top of the heap...
I'm looking forward to digging into the pile with renewed vigour. Who knows *what* we might turn up?!
