Red car stopped at the lights. AS I slowed down (about 10 feet from it), some cunt in a Corsa pulled alongside me, then in (all in the right-hand lane). I pulled in front of his off-side front wing so that he couldn’t get by. As the light went green, red car moved off, I [...]

Fresh white bread, think, rindless bacon, butter, and brown sauce. So much brown sauce, in fact, that I broke in to a sweat. Perfect.
Next time you’re in Madrid and fancy some really good chicken and a glass or four of cider, Casa Mingo’s (Paseo de la Florida) is the place to go. It’s about 800m from Estacion del Norte, or a 20 minute walk from the Palacio Real. We had half a roast chicken each, mixed salad and [...]
Flickr is full of photos of the same flower, same angle of the Trevi Fountain, all devoid of emotion, inspiration and originality, but these two photos, taken by two different photographers from different viewpoints are amazing. At first glance they look different, but if you look closely at the position of the couple, in particular [...]
I just heard her say, “Was that a fart?”, and then proceed to crack up on TV while watching an elephant take a leak. Brilliant. There’s not much better than hearing classy chicks like her say words like that.
The advert for this car is unbelievably good. It must be the most unique and inspired TV commercial in a very long time. Kudos to the ad. agency behind it. Can you imagine the pitch meeting.

The criminal’s comment about Friday nights is pointless and irrelevant. The fact is that she was caught, and the drunks aren’t. The sooner more [...]
I made some of these for the bride & groom to give away as gifts. I couldn’t find a company that would print them in small quantities, so I made the template, set up the calendar and had them printed as 7x5s. I had to crop the prints to fit, but the end result is [...]
Just got back from “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” by RSC at The Swan in Stratford. Bl__dy hell! I studied “MacBeth” and “Romeo & Juliet” in school and hated it, but this was something else. It was incredible, performed in English and several South Asian languages, all interwoven, with acrobats, martial arts experts, and three brilliant [...]
Getting there Setting off at 1.45 in the morning is how I like it. Clear roads make the drive to the airport easy. The boot full of luggage, skis tightly attached to the roof and TomTom spouting destructions at me when necessary. We arrived at Coventry Airport at about 3.30, with two of the other [...]
