vinegar breath
Saturday, December 31st, 2005
i woke up this morning, needing a drink of water. i grabbed the nearest bottle of water - only to find that it was the bottle i had carefully placed away from the floor to stop it being knocked over - containing not water, but decanted red wine vinegar.
a swig of that wasn’t […]

biscuit tin
Friday, November 25th, 2005
whoever invented biscuit tins was a moron.
there is clearly no need for them, because since when did a worthy-of-eating biscuit ever exist long enough to go stale?
and who wants to keep biscuits which aren’t worthy of eating?
a first class experience
Friday, September 9th, 2005
Yesterday I moved to Edinburgh using a Virgin Train. I travelled first class, because for some reason it was the only advance ticket Virgin would sell me, and it was only £25.
Unfortunately, Virgin’s complementary food wasn’t so first class, although there was a lot of it. During the journey I knowingly consumed E134, E127, […]

‘a selection of cheeses’ appeared on a number of larger band riders during the course of the weekend, however not a single artist actually ate any of the supplied cheese. i suggested that next year we purchase a single selection […]
burgers and bikes don’t mix
Tuesday, June 21st, 2005
from caroline lucas’ press office:
BURGER giant McDonald’s is under fire again after refusing to serve a cyclist for ‘not having an engine’.
Southsea former shopkeeper Charles Burns, 57, was turned away from the drive-through McDonald’s at Portsmouth’s Pompey Centre, despite the restaurant being situated next to a designated cycle path.
market madness
Thursday, June 9th, 2005
Today i visited the open market in Brighton for nearly the last time.
This time, to visit C H Mears for some veg:

And what did i find? There is a new shop at the market, called ‘Fetish and Fantasy’. I wasn’t able to find a photo I’m afraid.
