National Expletives

Later today I will be off to the darkest, deepest reaches of Derbyshire, to enter the top class and brilliant recording studio of one of the UK’s best producer/sound engineers; one Napoleon Fantastic. However, before I get there I have the indignity of travelling on the National Express coach. This is always nothing less than […]

It’s Snot Singing

I’m right on the cusp of laying down some mean, beefy, shouty, punky, new ravy davy vocals and the worst thing imaginable has happened. No, my trousers have not exploded. I have a cold. It has become a rather vicious little virus and is now in full attack mode. Mucus has begun to seep out […]

Happy Holidays?

It is only a matter of days before I am visiting Napoleon Fantastic. We will be spending a whole week in his studio, laying down tunes for my new all electric balls-out album. There be a pitched battle with the urge to drink booze and it shall make Napoleon feel rather ill - post-drunk. It […]

Night Terrors

Periods in my life that involve extreme stress always lead to nightmares. These dreams share the same theme and are occurring far more often as my work situation spirals out of control. Nightly, I find myself sitting bolt upright in bed, trying to catch my breath, covered in cold clammy sweat, having just expelled a […]

Hitler Tourettes

Last night we had a company drinks event. To make things interesting everyone had to endure a pub quiz. So we could mingle and meet members of other departments we were placed into teams made up of various little known colleagues. My team was a very international affair, with people whom originated from India, Norway, […]

Black Friday

Today marks the US shopping event that is known as Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving and the beginning of the hectic Christmas shopping season. Black Friday is not a traditional holiday but workers are given the day off so they can get a head start on their Christmas retail adventures. It is given such […]

The Stupid Ones #2

Another Prime Slice of Absolute Stupidity
No. 2. George Dawkins
Sitting near me in the office there is a girl of rather limited mental capabilities. She has the brilliant knack of saying really stupid things. Her chair was giving her postural problems so the company provided her with a specialist and intricate upright contraption to solve her […]

Replicant Night

Is Deckard a replicant?
Yes, he is.
It’s obvious.
This is why:
Whilst tapping away at an old piano Deckard has a slightly drunken vision of a unicorn. Later, Gaff presents him with an origami unicorn. Thus suggesting he knows that Deckard is a replicant because he has insider knowledge of his programmed memories. He lets Deckard escape with […]

Jazz Muppet

There is a little ratty man at work whom is quickly becoming my number one enemy. His name is Robby and he is a right git. What he is doing to me is tantamount to bullying. He is a short fellow with very close-cut curly hair and an ill-fitting suit, with garish pink shirts and […]

Until the Razor Cuts

I’ve managed to give myself a number of severe razor cuts. I have red, bleeding sores all over my chin and have sliced a part of my lip off. I did this a few days ago but it still has not healed and is continuing to bleed every time I speak. It would not be […]
