He was wearing a smart suit with disturbingly shinny shoes. He looked middle aged and his hair was greying at the temples. As he […]

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 […]

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. […]

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.

Following my near crush yesterday I was later confronted with scenes of utter chaos on the streets of East London. During my walk home I was shocked to discover that society had broken down and people had reverted to base savagery and craziness. I later found out that this was Eid ul-Fitr, the Muslim holiday […]

No, I am not angry that the brilliant US band Pavement are no more, this is to do with the causeway. According to a new study carried out by Nurofen Express commuters spend almost three and a half days a year waiting behind slow moving pedestrians. Around 52 per cent of the British workforce are […]

That’s right. My portrait will be plastered all over the walls of a trendy central London café bar. The First Out Cafe Bar on Giles High Street (WC2) is exhibiting a collection of images by Northern Stars, the collaboration between photographer Nadia Attura and stylist Laura Steel (Mercury).
On show […]

I have not slept for the last two nights. I feel sick and have started hallucinating. My temper is now so short that if anyone so much as smells me I’ll have ‘em. Oh boy, pumped up on caffeine and sugar I think my eyes are about to pop out of their sockets. Boy […]

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.
