You are here.
(I bet you didn’t even notice it was missing…) Some while back I wrote a thing so that it was possible to look at all my old gig tickets. Because for reasons I can’t fully explain in an acceptable timeframe, I have the ticket to EVERY GIG I’VE EVER BEEN TO scanned and stored in…
I’ve literally no idea who reads this any more – and I totally understand, because it’s fair to say that in the last wee while things round here have gotten a little… neglected. In addition to not really having any time to spare to speak of to write about anything, things in this WordPress installation…
Any keen and diligent readers of this blog will no doubt remember last year, when I was given the opportunity to write about the utterly splendid Drinks By The Dram Whisky Advent Calendar. It’s a truly wonderful product, which ties up the three concepts of having an opportunity to try a selection of different high…
It’s fair to say that the Internet’s full of people who want you to hear what they have to say about whisky. I can’t always say I find them interesting. HOWEVER… back in January a fella appeared on my Facebook feed courtesy of another whiskychum’s posting, with what sounded an interesting challenge. Ben Bowers has…
It makes sense, doesn’t it – sending an advent calendar to an atheist who has a famously shady grip on time… But if there’s one way to ensure that THIS little black duck knows exactly what day it is during the month of December then Drinks By The Dram have come up with the perfect…
Yes. Movember is here. This year marks a decade of me upsetting all around with the curation of yet another absurd-looking lip slug.

I may have mentioned in passing (17 or 18 times) that this year I’ve been involved in the Movember charity cause… So this year’s goal for me was to try to collect £1000 in donations, and to up the stakes a bit and encourage people into donating (because this is the 8th year in a…
It’s just past the middle of Movember, and you’ve had to endure my constant pleading for funds for a couple of weeks – so I thought I’d treat you all to a glimpse of how this year’s sub-nasal adornment is going… After an initial gestatory Chopper phase, I brandished the precision tools this morning and…
Mid October already?! Well, as anyone who’s known me for any length of time will be able to tell you, that time coincides with only one thing: the preparatory phases for… MOVEMBER Starting on October 31st with a clean-shaven face, then participants in Movember grow as much of a moustache as they can for the…
Hey wow, it turns out you can use your personal blog as a noticeboard. So, as mentioned in my previous post, I’m in the US right now and will be here for a few weeks. I’ve got a few tickets booked for things which I now can’t use, so I thought I’d mention it here…
