Today I shall be commenting on news things. Yes, you heard me. Except you didn’t as this is typed. You heard the voice in your head that you think is my voice. I hope its an apt representation. If not, then please imagine it as sort of James Earl Jones crossed with Tom Waits. Then […]

This is one of those weeks this week where funds are a little tight. As soon as Saturday passes, things will be all ok again, but up until then there is little cash for various things including necessities. Yesterday I had to wisely spend a small bit of cash on some food to sustain me […]

I’m gonna have a bit of a moan today. Moooaaa. There, that was a bit of a moan. Tee hee. No seriously. Its not often anything bothers me and to be fair this doesn’t bother me that much. Not as much as say, someone constantly flicking my face. That would make me really upset. Chances […]

Once again, much like the renegade master, I have somehow not left myself enough time to blog. Actually its not at all like the renegade master. He generally leaves enough time for most things, particularly giving power to the people. I often wonder if he works for N Power or something. I say I don’t […]

Despite me saying I would make yesterday’s blog brief due to having to write my Edinburgh show, I spent the rest of the day not writing my Edinburgh show. Well ok, I probably spent about 5 minutes with pen actually on pad making some scribbles, about 4 hours staring into space with a facial expression […]

Several things to blog about today, but I must also not blog too much as I have an Edinburgh preview tomorrow and while since the last one, I’ve definitely thought about the show a lot, I haven’t necessarily improved it. Actually the word ‘necessarily’ doesn’t even need to be there. I haven’t improved it. Fact. […]

I felt the need to blog about this today and as I’m sure many of you will know, my lack of political knowledge may mean this is a tad ropey but here we go. I saw the Labour Party Political broadcast last night by Eddie Izzard. I wasn’t really sure about it at all so […]

That Icelandic volcanic ash has given a lovely grey tint to the day. I woke up this morning and the skies seemed rather blue, which led me to believe that the airports were taking a tip from the Tube drivers and trying to get an easy day off at the expense of others. But now, […]

I can’t figure out why hotel’s kick you out at 11 but then won’t check you in until 3ish. What happens in the 4 hour interim? Sure rooms are cleaned, but does that take a whole 4 hours? I can clean my flat in about a quarter of that time. Yes admittedly, Layla would say […]

Yesterday, in Longleat, whilst sitting on the Lady Bath boat and gently chugging along the Longleat lake, we spotted Nico the sad gorilla. He was sad, the tour guide told us, because his partner Samba, died a few months back and he is too old for them to pair him up with another gorilla. He […]
