It’s been a pretty quiet month on Michael 84, April 2023 has possibly been one of the quietest since I have started this blog.
It’s been a while since I last posted, but don’t worry, there’s still plenty more to come. I’ve been planning out content for the blog going into the summer, so there should be a lot more frequent posting over the coming weeks.
If you’ve missed anything, here’s a roundup for what’s happened on the blog in April.
Yesterday EA Sports released the first details and logo into their newest venture, leaving the FIFA brand behind to bring EA Sports FC.
This isn’t a surprise, as this was announced back in 2021 that FIFA 23 would be the last FIFA game made by EA, after FIFA were asking for $1 Billion for the license, as reported by the New York Times.
What will change? Here’s what we know so far from the announcement.
One of the newest cocktail bars in Newcastle is The Mad House. I went a few months back for the first time, and it was pretty good.
It’s certainly a bar with a difference in Newcastle, and the only one where you can sit with your mates at a bath on a neon toilet seat while you drink.
Today is such a busy day with lots of things going on.
First of all it’s 17th March which means it’s St. Patrick’s Day. Second, Newcastle are playing later on tonight, on a Friday night?! And finally, it’s Comic Relief, so I had to get a Comic Relief T Shirt in the way of MR Happy from the Mr. Men.
Testing new beer and ale has been something I’ve been doing over the past couple of years. I discovered Northern Monk, tried one of them out and liked it, so bought a few more.
The cans I got were Northern Monk Uprising, Faith and Eternal.
For the past few weeks I’ve been watching The Last Of Us on Sky Atlantic. It’s brilliant!
The TV show which is based on the computer game of the same name started a few weeks back and I’ve been waiting to tune in each and every week to find out what’s happened.
There’ll be no spoilers here, but this is what it’s all about if you want to give it a try.
