Went to see unravel the other night. Twas good. Aidan Moffat was the grumpy man. Or was it Ziggy? I think it was Aidan. Aidan was grumpy when everyone kept laughing at the tweets. But he did smile when the arrow pointed at Tommy. I drank a free dram of whisky it was lovely. I […]

So, Homegame was bloody good. As is my wont, I took a bunch of amateurish footage (this time on the iPhone) and have compiled it into this video which hopefully gives a small taste of how good the performances and atmosphere were. Apologies for the general shiteness of the cameraman. Here are some random […]
This was an amazing night. Well done to Bart and the rest of eagleowl, our host Matthew Kelly as well as all the musicians that took part and everyone in the audience who contributed to it being so much fun! p.s. apologies to Kate Bush who I didn’t get any decent footage of but she […]

But if you’re interested in the good and bad points of Amazon’s e-reader, this super-quick overview might […]
Why I should care about what a bedraggled girl, with lank, dirty hair thought about me I don’t know. But I couldn’t resist her steely eyes, beautiful but dark and brooding like sassafras in the moonlight. And why did she like me? Well I may have been a disillusioned vegetarian after my last wife took off with the local […]
Urban Dictionary definitions for Gadgey: Non specific person in Scotland; ‘joe bloggs’. Often used to refer to workman, or random person in street/crowd. Another word for a ned in scotland. Derogatory Scottish term for someone who’s not so well-off. I’m obsessed with gadgets, and never more so than now, when I’m trying to stop myself […]

So I don’t usually talk about work here but I will make a rare exception because yesterday was my last day working in the Media & Communications Division of the organisation I work for*, where I’ve worked for almost 3 and a half years, both as a Media Monitor and on the mysterious “News Planning” […]
