Oh, my WORD. I cannot believe the prices that tickets for the Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine at Brixton at the start of November are going for on eBay... I've been watching the prices for a little while now, and up until recently tickets were goign for £60-70 each (face value of £25), and I thought that as time passed the prices would get a ( Read more... )

Ooh. I just noticed that the last time I posted here was April 3rd. That's six months since the last time I posted. I am such a lazy wombat. Fool that I am...

I guess I just spend far too much time hanging out in Facebook these days...

So. What y'all been up to? Owt exciting...?

I'll post a proper update here some time.

I am indeed a happy wombat; today I found out that there's an Even As We Speak website. It must be quite a new one, as it's at the obvious place where you might find such a band ( Read more... )

I'm trying my best to be a writer, yet really I don't understand people. That's really quite a problem, as if you can't understand other people. it makes writing other characters quite tricky. Of course, there is the option of writing a first person novel based on your own experiences (even if embellished) but then why write a thinly veiled ( Read more... )

How very frustrating. I mean, today is Monday, and it appears that NO CINEMA IN THE ENTIRE WORLD yet knows what it'll be screening this Friday. I need to know where I'll be able to see INLAND EMPIRE, which will be the film of the year. Better than any other movie you might see this year. It'll be great. Well, it's by David Lynch, the second ( Read more... )

So, to keep up with:

"4 - read, on average, a book a week and write a short review, here, of each. So, 52 books in 2007. Of these 52 books, six should be by an author I have never heard of, chosen solely on the basis of liking the front cover."

Here's a short review of the first book, finished Monday, which does mean I'm running behind:

A Devil' ( Read more... )

I've decided to amend my list of "Twelve things in twelve months". Number 5 was a bit wimpy, and should really have been a sub-clause of #4. So, I've added in a new Number 5, which is a little more challenging ( Read more... )

I was going to write a nice lengthy post here detailing the year that's gone but frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn. That 101 things in 1001 days thing I started almost a year ago has floundered badly with me only actually suceeding so far in completing about two or three of them and failing several already. So I've hit it on the head and have ( Read more... )

And I need a new icon.

Pirates are FANTASTIC, especially when they look like Robbie Rotten from LazyTown, but they're so 2006, and I need one for January 2007. Maybe I should have an icon a month. Yes. That would be a splendid idea. Splendid!

Argh, me hearties!

: )

Strewth! Is it really October since I posted here? Must be. Anyhow, I shall try harder in the new year, and post more frequently. (And also cross post all entries to the Blogger and MySpace pages as well. Wouldn't it be terribly handy if there was a McGuffing you could use to type the posts in which would automatically cross post it to all three ( Read more... )
