Even better than listening to Tanzwut is reading the entry about them on Wikipedia: it is straight from the file marked couldn’t-make-it-up.
Covered in glory

I may have mentioned it before, but I do like a good cover version. I also like a bad one. Most of all, I like an unlikely cover version and delving into the recesses of Spotify I have found some crackers – combinations that you could hardly make up.
Clever but pointless

I am finding this story hard to believe. I am not saying that I think it is not true – I do not know enough about truck specifications have a qualified opinion – just that it is hard to believe, in the same way that it is hard to believe that something the size of […]

We are well into the Christmas party season now. Last week Jayne was out at various functions for four nights in a row. One was my company’s annual do.  Being the sort of miserable bastard who doesn’t really like Christmas much I normally avoid company parties, but after hearing tales of how lavish they are […]
