I think I’ve been shifted forwards many years and this is what global warming has done to our planet. I went to be and it was 13°C and still was that when I woke up. Over lunch I saw a guy cycling in shorts and an old lady walking along with her sleeves […]
After almost two years of pestering and begging some wonderful person has now fix Issue 36696 that gives the (MS Word ‘97) option to hide blank lines when printing labels (or a letter with the wizard one would assume). Instead of being over joyed I find myself incredibly sad as with the new release […]
I’ve lost my grip on reality! Big hearted scousers have set up a mini shrine to a baby who was left dead in an alley way in Oakfield Road (in Anfield, Liverpool) following police cordoning off the street. Word spread around the city as “Paramedics could not identify the body and neither could […]
Oh dear. It seems that on Monday night Johnny Haynes, 71, collapsed whilst driving in his car and ended up in a head on collision. These injuries were so severe his family decided to turn his life support machine off on Tuesday. His wife who was also in the vehicle remains in […]
How can I watch Corpse Bride and not let the fact that we both saw the movie for free at a special preview screening before the film’s officially released influence my review? I shall try… ahem. Best movie of the year. I’ve looked back over all the films I’ve seen this year […]
Damn. Okay, the big beast is out and all the credit goes to David Davis. He had 67 declared MPs and was suggesting he would get around 80. He only got 62. That clear shows several people who had declared for him switched to Dr Fox in order to try and […]
As of this Saturday, BBC2 will never be the same again. Having lost Larry David’s semi-improvised Curb Your Enthusiasm to More4 (kudos to them though for making it available on Freeview), the BBC have more than recovered by getting Family Guy from the third series and putting it on directly after American Dad in […]
For almost two years a TK Maxx store (I’m not saying which one as I don’t want people to buy it) has had a kitchen utensil on sale and no one has bought it. It’s only £2.99 but the reason now one has bought it is no one knows what the hell it is! […]
In true Damian Day fashion (possibly inspired by Ab-normal Beauty from last week) I was wandering down Dalry Road this evening and thought to myself, “Hmm, it’s a bit quiet”. Adhering to my voyeuristic needs I snapped a picture and then three more. (I know my finger is in two of the shots, […]
In the past few weeks I’ve had two images the have actually amused me even though they were sent in the usual mass forward manner. A couple of months ago there was also the photo of the sign outside Notting Hill Gate tube station, the day after the Brazilian electrician was shot by police. […]
One the films I considered during the festival but then found out that it’d be released shortly afterwards and I could watch it for a damn sight less! Sei Mong Se Jun is about a teenage photography student (Jin) is bored with her pictures (and talent) but then sees a fatal car crash and […]
Friday and Saturday night we played Cranium (get game, loads of fun). Each night the situations inspired me to come out with a truly amusing line that I am very happy with. The first night I read the yellow Spellbound question which was “Spell the word ‘isthmus’”. I wasn’t certain how to […]
Five men go in, only one walks out. Rifkind is the first to go and Davis wins by a large number of MPs’ votes. Sir Malcolm then throws his support behind Ken Clarke as he shares his “One Nation Conservatism” ideas, despite disagreeing on Europe (which is a none-issue in this campaign). […]
I’ve been waiting for Hauru no ugoku shiro for a very long time, the hype surrounding it is huge. Disappointing is a word I could not use to describe this film. ‘Mesmerised’ and ‘in awe’ would explain quite well how I felt throughout the whole film. The genius of the director is […]
I get a nice warm feeling when I realise the new “series” of politics is back on the air. It started with the Labour Party conference last week when Gordon Brown said he won’t return to old Labour (i.e. socialist) policies and was a Blairite through and through. I didn’t read one article […]
“Rampant Chelsea Crush Reds” is the headline the BBC are running with in their sports section. This is unfair and untrue. Yes Chelsea beat Liverpool 4-1 but they simply had good luck on their side rather than being rampant. I’m not bitter about Liverpool not getting either of the two certain penalties […]
