Stand back green grocers, there’s a new kid in town! It’s not really forgivable for someone to not have an apostrophe in the company name Chaplins Disco but a lot of company names are being written like that, e.g. Tescos rather than Tesco’s. They cross the line when they blatantly abuse the apostrophe […]
Why oh why oh why would anyone buy 750ml of grape juice when you could buy 1 litre for exactly the same price? Any sane person wouldn’t do that. Plus the larger package comes in a lighter tetrapak carton rather than a heavy glass bottle. However when that grape juice has fermented […]
Nothing elaborate here, just trying to add my voice to those wanting Alan Johnston to be released immediately. I firmly believe in the Freedom of the Press worldwide, otherwise it’s a dark place we are entering. You can sign the BBC’s petition too:
The Beeb are running a story that some “hacker” has discovered which two characters die at the end of the sixth and (hopefully) final Harry Potter book. Why? If it’s not true and just “another theory” (according to the publishers) then why print it? Thinking there is more truth to the story, I did […]
Wow. Two full years. My little baby is growing up. And to top it all off, this is my 300th post and I’ve had over 200 comments (including some from a few long lost friends). What a year it’s been. I’ve changed career, scared my replacement by my resignation notice and […]
What can be done with The Scotsman? I’ve previously mentioned bizarre comments by them and a real dumbing down of the product however I was out last weekend and spent a couple of hours having a fascinating conversation with their Scottish Government Editor, Peter MacMahon. He’s an incredibly articulate, witty and intelligent yet […]
For some people, the 80s never went away. 1980s related things are cool again to the mainstream. David Hasselhoff, Dirk Benedict, Mr. T and of course Alf (or is that David O’Doherty?). I’ve been listening to “Waiting for a star to fall” over and over again on my MP3 player (no, not […]
Please do not shoot me done for being derogatory to women. It was Neil McRobie that spoke this little entry first. Women can now post topless pictures of themselves online (gasp) and men will pay to see them (shock). What is the Internet coming to? It seems men are willing to […]
It’s that time of year again, the Fringe Guide 2007 is out now! For those people who would to speculate to accumulate, why not become a Friend of the Fringe. It was my leaving present from SNIPEF and I’m going to do it every year! Not only do you get to book […]
Not to leave out plays and musicals, here’s a quick shout to:
Killer Joe – Phil Nichol stars in it, ’nuff said
Breaker Morant – Phil Nichol co-directs, should be interesting
Xenu – It mocks it to Scientology, pay to go and see it
Fatboy – Last chance to see it before it gets adapted in to feature film
