Last night I braved a downpour so severe I could barely make out my own headlights on the road ahead to make my way towards a modern building in an esteemed seat of learning, and found myself sitting in a classroom for the first time in over a decade. I was surprised to see that [...]

Dumbfuck

What has actually been a pretty bloody good day has actually turned rapidly into a pissy and irritable mood this evening, through nobody’s fault in particular but my own. Incremental bits of annoyance have built up and left me feeling, well, pissy. I was going to spend the evening writing stuff for Demon Pigeon, because [...]

Generic end of year post

For the most part I’ve been taking December as a ‘month off the Internet’, save for the occasional pop round the door of Twitter or Facebook to say hello, or tell crap jokes which then get ignored or scorned upon. It’s been refreshing, and I’m not really sure how much I’ve really missed it, but [...]

Changes Pt1: Breakaway

Admin Stuff,Demon Pigeon,General,Music,Writing 9 September 2010 | 2 Comments

Bear with me on this one, sorting some stuff out in my head, and that can only lead to self-indulgence. If you don’t like procrastination you may want to look away now. Or go and read something else. Or make some coffee. Maybe have a cake? Anyway. It’s amazing the kinds of things you cook [...]

It turns out that one huge benefit of making your post a private one is that you get to see exactly who is reading it, because they have to contact you direct and ask you for a password. Which is nice. Thankfully quite a few of you did, and provided me with just the ego-massage [...]

Impatience and Virgin

Demon Pigeon,General,Net hate 8 June 2010 | 1 Comment

It has now been six days since my missive to Virgin Media, and I have yet to have a response. I’m going to give them the benefit of the doubt and give them until the end of play tomorrow, and then I am going to call them and tell them to come get their stuff. [...]

Potentially Stupid

Admin Stuff,Demon Pigeon,General,Year of Health 8 March 2010 | 4 Comments

It’s been a pretty big year so far, all told.  I don’t really need to go into it, I’m sure you’re well aware.  However, Year of Health has recently lost Ellen as a contributor, and to be honest has not been updated nearly enough.  One of the issues is that it’s not the most wildly [...]

Um, anyone still there?

Demon Pigeon,General,Net joy,TV,Year of Health 10 February 2010 | 2 Comments

So it’s official, I am utterly shit. Having promised not to let my extracurricular activities preclude me from updating this place, the truth is that Year of Health and Demon Pigeon (not to mention the fallout of that business at the tail end of last year) have been keeping me pretty busy of late. Incidentally, [...]
