Another of our country’s national treasures has passed away today. Ronnie Corbett left us today. Lots of people have been lamenting the fact that lots of people we care about have died recently. I think it says a lot about our country that we care so much about the people who have played a part […]
Later this month, my favourite group of all time, The Divine Comedy – well, Neil Hannon – releases a new album, Bang Goes The Knighthood. The first single will be The Indie Disco. And it’s a cracker! You can watch the video here (and here, in HD) I actually cannot wait for the album…
I adore comedian, musician and wizard-a-like Bill Bailey and so found this brief interview with him a lovely insight into what makes him tick. With the challenge of guaranteeing a laugh a minute, comedian Bill Bailey tells the BBC’s Matthew Stadlen about music, the joys of foamed milk, his mastery of languages and a love […]

All the dates that the entries were originally published and posted comments have been preserved. ——————————- Today has been a good day I guess. My lessons went well and I’m currently having the afternoon as Non-Contact […]

Speaking to Q one issue about the perfect pub compilation album, he described Queen‘s Bohemian Rhapsody as “encapsulating the drunken night out – a quiet bit at the start, some people arguing with each other, then […]
Not so very popular on these here shores, but for those who don’t know, making decisions is hard… Thank God someone invented the 8-Ball to take the work out of it. (The idea is that you ask it a question with either a yes or no answer. Then an answer appears in its little window… […]
