  • So I’m Sat At Work…

    ...minding my own business, and some random guy walks in through the office door, looking lost. Nobody seems to get up to see to him, so I - in my new desk, which is quite close to the door - go over to greet him. "Is there;" he begins, sounding a little unsure of himself, …

  • Thai-Style Turkey & Rice

    I've always been drawn to trying to prepare a fried-rice dish, but I've always been put off by the risk of burning it (I'd have imagined that it would be difficult to prevent rice from over-cooking and sticking to the pan, which would make for far-from delightful cleaning, later). But having watched Ken Hom preparing …

  • Future History Of Comedy

    Went to the Future History Of Comedy last night. I'm not going to write about it here, because this is what I would have said.

    That post by Andy subsequently got made friends-only, so I've republished it here to save you dragging it off archive.org:
    Went to a student-run comedy night last night on the promise …

  • Nice β€˜N’ Naughty

    Claire, Matt, Paul, Sian and I visited Nice 'N' Naughty, Aberystwyth's second sex shop, as it opened at 9am this morning. Other folks who'd promised to come along, such as Jon and Hayley, Andy, and Ruth and JTA, were nowhere to be seen. What follows is, essentially, my "review" of the establishment:

    The shopfront itself is …

    This is just silly. I have 50 - yes, count 'em - 50 GMail invites. Nope; 49, now. If you want one, shout. And yes; Becky, I'll sort one for you as soon as you tell me where to e-mail it to.

  • Dreams Of Scrabble

    Odd dream last night:

    Claire, Matt, Sian, Andy R and I were sat in a circle on the large pavement outside the dry cleaners on Great Darkgate Street, Aberystwyth, playing Scrabble. I wasn't very comfortable sat where I was (between Claire and Sian), so I swapped places with Matt (between Sian and Andy), which was …
