OK, *I'm* not in Holland, but Pat and Jules are as part of their European Tour (obviously they couldn't fit the rest of the band in their luggage… but what else do you really need other than a bass player and a guest vocalist ?), and they showed the good judgement to send me a [...]

(Incidentally, if you haven't heard “The Prole Song” by Snog, check it out - it's a favourite of mine at the minute. Thanks Richie !)
Nothing much new - just slaving over a hot keyboard for endless hours a day. I still have mixed feelings about working until 10pm on a Sunday night. [...]

One of things about living regular everyday life, rather than going off on big adventures, is that there usually ceases to be great important tales of circumstance to relate. However the large nuggets of story-like matter are replaced by a vast amount of little tidbits of interest. That's my way of saying “not [...]

Wow. I had my first Ikea experience today. I had to get some things for my room, like a bedside table and a rug (cos I hate walking on polished floorboards barefoot!), and it seemed like it was going to be the easiest option. Well… lemme tell ya, irrespective of how [...]

Aaaaaah, the cavalcade of f*ckups continues (that fairy must be back around here someplace !?). Not that I want to spend EVERY web page entry complaining about it… although I'm gonna

I was reading a Microsoft propaganda rag on the tube on the way home last night (I've stopped buying the Evening Standard, because it spoils my read of the Metro the next morning… that, and the weird old dude who sells it at Canary Wharf reminds me a lot of Nuddley, my old housemate). [...]

Now, you'd think that since I had such a bloody marvellous time at the They Might Be Giants gig the other night that I'd have written it up straight away. Just didn't seem to get around to it, really. Now the I've got a minute though, I'll give it a shot.

When I got [...]

GRRRRRRRRRR! What is it with this bloody country ? You wouldn't think it'd be that hard to find A5 diary refills !?
Maybe it's not the UK's problem - maybe it's just the Internet. Damn Internet. If it wasn't for the net, I'd get SOOOOOO much more work done !
Except of course [...]

I can't believe I missed TimO's birthday - it was his 21st, and all! Not that I could have made it to the party; it being in Adelaide and all… but it still would have been good to have the presence of mind to have called on the night, or something. Not [...]
