Didn’t think I’d get a chance to blog today but it turns out there is wifi in the flat I’m staying in so my notions of avoiding the internet for a few days have been sharply put to rest. I won’t say its a good thing as part of me needs a few days of […]
I wanted to make a delve into music journalism today by explaining the virtues and important of the Pharcyde’s 1995 album Labcabincalifornia, after having my annual rediscovery of it last night. I was going to explain how it was the hip hop album that proved my theory to my friend Pat that there is hip […]
So far Starbucks in Westfield is doing many right things. Firstly, they are playing The Shins. Well done them. Secondly, because its in Westfield, they may have tried to lure me to pay for BT Openzone first, but being a smartypants (yes I am, and I don’t mean I have underwear made of sweets), I […]
Two things: Thing 1. I watched the X-Factor for the first time this season this morning. I don’t feel like I need to explain to you why I did it, but lets say a level of curiosity, a severe hangover and an inability to cope with the other channel showing Fearne Cotton gazing into space […]

Its only 11.30am and I’ve managed to be a huge wuss once already today. Not entirely knowing what I was attending, but knowing it was against the cuts, I travelled along to spot someone with an orange umbrella outside the Ritz at 9.30am this morning, to await further instructions with fellow dissenters. Already this mere […]
My blog today is a bit of a chore. I skived out of yesterday’s so feel as though some typing must happen, but I have a small list of things that need to be done today and this is very much keeping me from list completion. If anything, I am purely a victim of my […]
I’ve got shedloads of stuff to do today, so there will be a huge lack of text in this blog. Instead, here’s the latest bit of TiernART for you. Its been a short while since I doodled anything but promise I’ll get on the case soon. Till then, enjoy ‘Horses For Courses’:
