This evening I went against my better judgement and, after alighting from the bus from Oxford in a state of extreme peckishness (at 10:30 on a Sunday night), thought I’d pop in to KFC for a bit of quick grub. In “So I Married An Axe Murderer” Mike Myers utters the question “How could you…
Whilst skimming over my site stats recently and seeing what the hottest keywords that mistakenly send people here at the moment are, I couldn’t help but notice that in the middle of the pack for this month have been a few visits for folks seeking out webpages featuring the phrase “gaping anus”. Finding this hilarious,…
There hasn’t been a good razor-related marketing whinge on this blog in a while, so whilst combing through the back catalogue of emails that’s built up in my inbox over the past week I’m extremely surprised and shocked that I didn’t pounce on Toby‘s message regarding the new-if-inevitable offering by shaving boffins Gillette, in the…
And now, the reason the internet was invented: Piecost.Net I feel like I get a bizarre amount of email, and this is a good thing. Quite a lot of it is stuff that’s been forwarded around in the name of being amusing, and much of this I would duly forward on to the correct people. …
An ongoing war of wills has been going on between me and our front door knocker for about the last 7 or 8 months, and I’m embarrassed but not surprised to admit that the doorknocker is presently winning. In fact, this weekend’s battle proved to be quite a savage blow from the forces of darkness….
In a followup to my story on keyboard/hand hygiene, I’ve been noting with growing concern the state of my office keyboard, and idly musing to myself “Hmm, I must do something about that”.

As hinted previously in this blog, in February there are awards ceremonies to be found other than those centred around the US Film Industry. In this particular case, I’m talking about the Chortle Awards – awarded by UK Comedy portal Chortle.co.uk & sponsored by Fremantle Media – and as hoped by the staff here at…
Unexpectedly ended up as the guest of The Puzzler at last night’s sold out Chris Cornell gig at Scala. I was vaguely aware of Cornell’s rock pedigree, although didn’t specifically know much, and so it was one of these “feel your way as you go” kind of gigs. Anyone, by the way, who is getting…
The last 2 nights have seen me at a couple of comedy sessions – as usual, a testimony to my alertness & awareness… I was mainly looking for an opportunity to see Daniel Kitson without having to trek out into the middle of nowhere, and both gigs turned out to be multi-comic showcases of which…
‘Tis the gently beating wings of my old guardian, The Fuckup Fairy. I ought to have learned by now it’s pointlss to try to get to airports. Today, however, she’s pulled off a rare confluence of subtle cockups, and it would be both unfair & out of character of me not to share them all…
