August 3rd, 2009 · 1 Comment · Life
This afternoon I made the short journey up to London to go and see Andrew do his thing in Trafalgar Square as part of Anthony Gormley’s One & Other project. I went for several reasons: to support Andrew, to support a good cause, to get some use out of my cameras, and because…Â well I […]

It is a terrible thing to confess, but I have not read Pride & Prejudice, nor anything else by Jane Austen. I haven’t even seen any of the lavish costume drama adaptations on the TV. This does not bother me: I don’t cling to that idea of a classical canon that you have have read. […]

Nobody’s Diary

I do like a good zombie film, especially those made by George A Romero, so I was dead chuffed to see a DVD in the shops the other day of Diary Of The Dead. After reading the back of the box I was in two minds about getting it, despite my great affection for the […]

Two Zombie-related things to make me forget about the cold which, in its second week of snottiness, is making me feel a bit like a zombie myself…
