It was recently announced that to save money, the BBC are thinking of closing 6Music and the Asian network radio strations. I am a huge fan of 6Music – I have never listened to the Asian network – and would be most upset were it to not be around anymore. I can’t write about how […]
I discovered Tom Scott‘s web site recently and, after writing this entry yesterday, thought one of his videos would fit in perfectly. His other work in the Things I’ve Made section are also worthy of your time. Enjoy! Edit: I’ve now realised that I haven’t just discovered him – I knew I knew the name […]

I added my Last.fm quilt of top albums to the main page of the site tonight. It will update itself over time as I listen to more and more music, it currently reflects the last 10,000 (nearly) songs I’ve listened to. Below is my top artists quilt. Enjoy it!

I saw these quotes the other day, had I had to share them with you. OK, numbers one and two (thanks to Gavin Esler, Newsnight presenter…) “The first door I knocked on, I was told to burn in hell. I felt things could only get better after that.” Tory candidate Lucille Nicholson in Easington, County […]
