I made this cake and Worf jerked off in the flour.

Ellen has gone and abandoned me for the night to go and see Black Swan, so I’m on my own tonight with the only plan being to try and write as much as I can before she gets back, and liaising with Jonic about the site design and all that sort of goodness. What I [...]

Staying in

General,TV 31 December 2010 | 0 Comments

It is with a certain amount of relief that I can say that as the clock strikes in the New Year tonight I will be sat sober on my sofa with my best friend, watching some shit on the telly. I’ll probably even be shouting at Jools Holland and his stupid honky tonk piano, or [...]

Generic end of year post

Comedy,Demon Pigeon,Film,General,Music,Nanowrimo,Net hate,Net joy,Smoking,TV,Writing,Year of Health 23 December 2010 | 1 Comment

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 [...]

Ballad of the broken writer

General,Nanowrimo,TV 4 December 2010 | 0 Comments

Well predictably enough my first Nanowrimo post on day two turned out to be my last Nanowrimo post, given that I then spent the rest of the month writing my Nanowrimo novel. The good news is that I won! Yes, I have once again triumphed over the daily 1667 word count, for the third time [...]

Revolutions and Revolutionaries

Film,Movies,TV 4 October 2010 | 0 Comments

Again I’ve done the thing of writing a blog post at a time when I can’t post it, and then forgetting to post it once I got home. I wrote most of this last week, gleeful at the time that it would mean more than one blog post in a week, giddy at making September [...]

Procrastination Station

Demon Pigeon,TV,Writing,Year of Health 3 September 2010 | 0 Comments

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 [...]

On Doctors, Housewives, Bad Cops, Atticus Finch and Damn Statistics

Admin Stuff,TV,Writing 8 July 2010 | 8 Comments

You may have noticed that things look all shiny and new around here, as promised I have a new theme until the site gets a full overhaul for the launch of BOTM. One downside, however, is that the change seems to have borked my analytics right up, so I can’t see if anyone is actually [...]

When is an office not an office?

Admin Stuff,TV,Writing 7 July 2010 | 4 Comments

Firstly, a quick note to say that those of you who have come to the site directly and not just looked at the shiny RSS feed will notice that the site looks awful. Turns out updates are not such a good idea, and I shall be looking at a new theme soon, but in the [...]

A Cunning Plan

Books,Cycling,Football,TV 23 June 2010 | 0 Comments

Today I attempt the impossible. No, not trying to balance an egg on it’s end at the equinox. Not sitting through an episode of Big Brother without curling my fists into a ball while a rage sweeps through my body. Not even trying to explain to George Osbourne that poor people are still people too. [...]

Service please

General,Net hate,TV,Writing 4 June 2010 | 6 Comments

As I mentioned before, I am really suffering with writers block at the moment. I have managed to write one thing though, a bit of a missive to Virgin Media for the terminally awful piece of shit they call ‘service.’ I thought I might post it here, just on the off-chance that I can later [...]
