The topic de jour (that’s french for [...]

You may have noticed that the frenetic early pace has eased a bit in the last week or so. Unsurprisingly, this has coincided with me having a new role at work. A role that involves working. This is actually a great development, and I think I’m going to be kept very happy working on stuff [...]

Advanced Hair Studios have been dragged over the coals for claiming that their treatment to halt and reverse balding works. The public have been shocked to discover that it actually doesn’t work.

I went to a place called Macro for lunch the other day. You can read for yourself their approach to food, but you know the deal - organic, free range, dairy-free, nut-free, pleasure-free food.

This story was written a while back, but it is all true. It got published, but in a publication that no-one - not even my mum - reads. Against the odds, people apparently come to my blog though, so I might as well get some extra eyes on it. And you know you want to [...]
