Drink + Computer

Yep, I did it again. I must stop because this is silly, oh so silly. However, I seem to be on repeat. I seem to be on repeat. I seem to be on repeat.
Drink + Computer/Internet = foolishness and embarrassment. My wine addled brain realised I had made a rather severe error when I was […]

What Not To Do When Drunk No. 13

Cut your own hair.
Merrily chopping away at your long locks you will end up with a ridiculous and comical fringe. You do not want to leave your flat because everyone will laugh at you. They do. You cannot glue it back on but you will give it a go anyway.
Have you seen the drummer’s hair?

London Loves #2

A quick message of heartfelt thanks goes out to the couple who live in the flat above mine. Just after midnight they generously took the brave decision to have a party; a party that ran from late Monday night until six am Tuesday morning. What a fabulous idea and I am so happy they shared […]

London Loves

It is with a degree of honour and respect that I want to thank certain individuals who use their valuable sleeping time to serenade me in the wee small hours of the morning. Couples and lonely gentlemen stand beneath my bedroom window at three in the morning and proceed to shout and swear and argue. […]

Hats Off To Harry

I recently met up with my bear outfit wearing friend Barry Barrington. We met in the notorious gangster watering hole The Blind Beggar. I wanted to establish how he succeeded in hijacking my website and posting a number of inane blogs. He has been a very naughty bear and I wanted to chastise him.
Before we […]

Beary Barrington

Let me explain.
I was hijacked. Barry Barrington took advantage of me whilst I was trapped under a landslide of work and rubble. He infiltrated my website. I apologise if he upset anybody, he usually does because that is his main skill. He is a drunk and a disgrace and an embarrassment.
I met Barry a couple […]

Barry’s Bits #2

Hi folks. Baz Barry Baritard Barrington here again, everybody’s favourite brown bear impersonator. Nelson is still trying to catch up. It’s his own fault for taking a couple of days off work. What a silly sausage.
My fishing trip down the Regent’s Canal with the one and only Dr Keith Moon ended in a splash and […]

Wet Trousers

So it is officially the end of summer and about time too. As I sit here in my soaking wet trousers, shoes and socks, shivering and snuffling and smelling of wet dog, I remember what an utterly wonderful summer it was. Oh sorry, no I am wrong. It rained . . . and rained again.
I […]

Off Soon

Just to pre-warn you - I shall soon be taking a short and well deserved break. I am off to visit my family in the East Midlands. The original trip was meant to coincide with a performance by the mighty Enormous but that gig was cancelled at the last minute by the powers that be. […]
