Weird day today. The interview with Irfon Jones from Radio Cymru was brought forward to today, which meant less time to prepare, but also less time to get nervous. I don’t really do nerves, though, not beforehand. I get kinda calm before something scary. Then I fall apart afterwards. I have to say, Irfon was […]

It seems that the International Olympic Committee has finally lost its collective head somewhere in its collective lower intestine, and has decided to ban wild card entries into the Olympics.

Continuing the seafood theme, last night I dreamt of giant crabs, three foot across with pincers that could crush bricks. They were scuttling up the lane my parents live on, although no explanation as to what they were doing so far from the sea was forthcoming. At least one of them ended up on the […]
