I recently sat down at my drums and didn’t get up for 90 minutes. My hands, which’d been holding the sticks for such a long period of time, were in pieces and needed a good stretch because they’d been holding the drumsticks for so long. I thought it was only long spells of typing that [...]
10,000 tweets 100,000 page loads. I’m planning a get-together in Dublin to celebrate these, more details as they emerge.
I’m an aural guy. I’m very not-paper-and-pens stuff. I will know 50% of a song’s lyrics after the first listening, and there are at least 3 musicals I can sing the entire libretto for (regardless of how well I sing them…). I learn by taking it and changing it like putty and arranging it in [...]
I Love xkcd from NoamR on Vimeo. Won’t. Get. Out. Of. My. Head. Boom de yadda, boom de yadda, boom de yadda…
The last symptom of the pig flu – a wicked sore throat – is finally beginning to fade. I’m still not back to school today because the doctor says I’m still contagious. He can call me what he likes though; I’m feeling good. So that means I get one more day arseing around at home [...]

Does he mean a writer of fictional books or a writer who’s not real..? :D Like all kids, I’ve gone through more career changes then changes of socks. First it was a train driver, then astronaut, then teacher, then TV actor, then stage actor, then blogging consultant. As I’ve grown up (unsure whether to use [...]
Or so says Tommy’s GP, who we called at about 8pm last night after my persistent fever wouldn’t go down. She gave us our probably and we redoubled our efforts to get my temperature (which spiked at a very worrying 39.19 degrees C.) down, finally succeeding about an hour later. I’m a bit surprised. This [...]
From a friend: The recession graphed using pasta. However, he informs me that he has the photo upside down, and that the pasta’s economy is on the up. Sorry if people saw the title of this post and thought this’d be a well-thought-out and witty look at the recession… all one of you :)
