Finally I can stop plugging THIS because its tonight and there’s little I can do to pull extra crowds in now. Instead today needs to be spent remembering the damn thing. I went through it yesterday and its nearly all there. However certain little gags and bits of wording appear to be lost forever. I’m […]
I like that this spell of cold weather is being called ‘The Big Freeze’. It sounds a bit like a book by Raymond Chandler. Perhaps one where Phillip Marlowe has to solve a problem of a diamond call the ‘Snowflake’, while someone’s bank account has been frozen and its winter. There is a reason why […]
I have, on several previous occasions on this here very blog, complained about the snow. This is usually because I have had to travel in it, or its not proper snow, just sludgy wet horror or because kids on my street are throwing snowballs with knives and bombs in them. Well today I don’t have […]
I’ve started doing loads of drawing again, which I really enjoy. Ever since I was very tiny I’ve enjoyed doing art type things. You may say a starting point was when my mum walked into the living room one day to find I’d stuck all her sanitary towels to the wall. When she gasped in […]
I was so planning to go jogging this morning. It was going to be step 1 in my ‘get healthy’ plan. Its not really a plan, more something I put in this blog and have said a few times to a few people until I myself would believe I. But that’s enough that meant I […]
I had the most horrible dream about an epic scale zombie attack last night. Before I carry on, I’d like to point out that I am not one to witter on about dreams. I tend to have an automatic switch in my head that plays elevator music and drifts off when people engage me in […]
I’m sitting on my sofa watching in sheer disgust, a program called Beyonce vs Rihanna. So far, neither of them have actually appeared live, let alone bludgeon each other to death with large weapons. If you call a show ‘something VS something’ then I expect violence. Instead they are showing their music videos while two […]
‘Start as you mean to go on’ is a phrase that people seem to continually use on the first day of a new year. Its a stupid phrase and doesn’t really apply to many things. For example a triathlon. If you started with swimming and then tried to swim through the cycling and running events, […]
Its the last ever day of 2009, and, much like the end of every year, it feels pretty much the same as the middle of the year or the beginning or any other bit. Without meaning to sound bah humbug or whatever the NYE equivalent is, I’m never really that fussed about the promise of […]
As of today I have blogged everyday for an entire year! That’s 365 blogs, which is 8 million paragraphs, 670 trillion sentences and 900 bazillion words*. I’ve used more words than you’ve had accidents on a space hopper**. There have been some cheat days, and there was the one day in Bestival where I was […]
