The Grim Design

Woe is me…

So my last post was about the fun I had on the shooting excursion organised by the lovely people at Hinchliffe’s Farm. It is with no small degree of sadness that I post this…

Of Blood and Zombies…

You’ll have to forgive any shonky typing from me over the next few days… Unfortunately I’ve had a wee bit of an accident yesterday. On my way back from town I decided to pop into Sainsbury and pick up some cheese and some nice bread to make myself a nice cheese sandwich for lunch.

What’s wrong with this envelope?

I’ve just been doing a spot of tidying up and in and amongst the various junk mail the poor postman is obliged to deliver I happened across a brown envelope. It was completely plain and unassuming apart from the phrase ‘What’s wrong with this envelope?’ written across the bottom in Times New Roman. I hate [...]

Such a scientific breakthrough has attracted the usual torches and pitchforks from the ethical crowd. Usually I’d be shouting ‘FUCK ETHICS!’ about now, but strangely I’m [...]

Of Mobile Phones and Vomit…

I can’t help feeling that I’d have had a better [...]

Underneath the Moon…

Seeing as I’ve spent the morning swearing at PHP and MySQL I figured come lunchtime that I needed a break to do something a bit silly. So I did.

I started with the famous 3 Wolf Moon t-shirt and set about making it even more awesome!! The result is that there’s 2 new shirts in my [...]

The Rise of the Straggly Man

A little while ago the charlatans behind Most Haunted spent 4 nights buggering about in the dark in Prague. Despite my best efforts (and those of the people I roped into helping me) I was unable to demonstrate the whole thing was a steaming pile of excrement. Fake plastic excrement.

I went about this by ‘inventing’ [...]
