I’ve added a couple of things here recently - down at the bottom of the page is a new archives section where you can just click on a link to go back to previous posts. There’s also a grey box which is meant to show the most recent previous posts, but for some reason that [...]

I HATE shaving. Horrible, so I try not to do it too often. But I’m not growing a beard.
One thing that really annoys me about shaving too (apart from the fact it’s boring) is Gillette - I don’t know why, but I don’t like them as a company. They keep introducing new razor blades with [...]

Starbucks have a nicely designed Christmas site up and running at itsredagain.com - you can basically enter your own or search through a list of worldwide Christmas traditions, or if you are bored, you can send Yuletide greetings to people. They’re performed by a selection of cute characters, but rather than your greeting just being [...]

Well it seems all I’m writing about at the moment is nights out - probably because I’m not doing much else.
Last night G and I headed out and ended up (via White’s) at the Pott House. First time I’d been there for a while, and it was good! I met a really nice girl from [...]

In the words of the song, I really have been partying like it’s 1999 recently - I feel I am going out a bit too much to be honest, but I guess it’s Christmas. So… last night Christine had us round to her house for a spot of dinner, and as a surprise, presented us [...]

Well in the desert which is work at the moment (I still don’t have anything to work on just now, so am spending my day surfing the net, writing Christmas cards etc.), I did help out on a studio show on Monday.
ATL Rock School is a kind of one-off battle of the bands show, where [...]

I’m Scottish, and proud of it as well, but the humiliation of watching the X-Factor over the last couple of weeks has made my stomach churn. I’m talking of course of the MacDonald Brothers who were booted out on Saturday. Grrreat! And thank goodness for that. An embarassment to Scotland.
Scotland has given the world some [...]

My mate G has started a blog, which you can find here. It’s a little bit crazy, but then so’s he!
I really need to get a blogroll up and running here on my site, but I can’t be bothered. Maybe in a couple of days.

Well I’ve had another week of going out. (Though not this weekend as my liver needs a rest, so I’ve been good and stayed in.)
Last weekend, G, Christine, Jill and I headed off to the Paolo Nutini gig with Majella and her family. Maj is going out with one of the guitarists in the band! [...]
