Achievement Unlocked: God's Monkey Puzzle Tree

Achievement Unlocked: Hippy in the Wild

This is my friend Tia. She is a bit of a pagan hippy. Tarot reading, clairaudient, crystal healing, tree hugging, dream interpreting, clairsentient, Sylvia Plath loving, psychic medium of a girl that she is I thought it'd be nice to take some pictures in our horribly overgrown garden. What with it being a whole heap of nature it just seemed... 'right'

Achievement Unlocked: Music Life

Has music really been getting worse during my lifetime? There can only be one kind of test...

Achievement Unlocked: Retro Modern Art

Sometimes I like to paint. Sadly I have no skill for it so I'm restricted to simple colours and shapes. Doesn't mean you can't have fun with it though...

Achievement Unlocked: Find a Mac more commercialized than Apple's

If Mac and Me taught us nothing else it's that the moons of Saturn have a delicious and nutritious core of gooey sugar.

Achievement Unlocked: Stats in the blood...

Sometimes I think about blood...

Achievement Unlocked: Aggravated Avian Flu

Achievement Unlocked: Happy Little Love Song

Sometimes you don't want to express anger or sadness. Sometimes you don't want to be abstract or circuitous. Sometimes you want to be direct.

Achievement Unlocked: Musical Building Blocks

Achievement Unlocked: Here comes the Calvary...

Updated Lyrics for Calvary, now with a completed third verse, but still with some words missing...

Achievement Unlocked: Swift Lunching

Sometimes the only thing that can sustain you after a bad morning at work (with only the promise of a worse afternoon) is a good lunch.

Achievement Unlocked: Toweling Off

Achievement Unlocked: Hyde in the Park

Everyone has a first true music love. Sadly for some people it's Barry Manilow or Rod Stewart and increasingly these days it's more likely to be some group of dressed up teenage rapists with a drum machine. As if anyone could ever consider N-Dubz to be lovable. (For legal reasons Dappy is NOT a rapist or a druggie.)

Achievement Unlocked: Mike Lightning

To say the Garbage Pail Kids cards where THE thing in my school when we were kids is to state bald unopposed fact. Like saying that Jeremy Kyle is everything that is wrong with humanity or that anyone raising a child on chips and ITV alone is the very worst kind of terrorist.

Achievement Unlocked: Pretty Puddle Lights

Achievement Unlocked: Hate as Love

This is the second set of lyrics I've been working on. The last set were quite abstract, i think these are more refined they're sort of built around the concept of two people feuding until they're the only ones left.

Achievement Unlocked: Lyrically Abstract Extract

This is the first set of lyrics i am working on for one of the micro songs (Micro3) i'm working on with Hilder. This is a rough draft, unfinished, the piece of music has a repeating progression so it's just three stanzas. No melody yet, just phrasing over the music.

Achievement Unlocked: Record Some Music

Despite the raging beard melting heat yesterday I not only managed to make it over to Castlenau but also set up some recording equipment and arrange and record a few melodious bits with Hilder...

Achievement Unlocked: Revelation. On a boat.

Sometimes films don't start at the cinema until after 18:30 on days when I finish work at 16:30. So what's a boy to do?

Achievement Unlocked: Outlive Some of Your Heroes

In 63 days I am going to turn 30. It's weird. I know that thirty is an arbitrary number, a nice round figure. I know that I've already had my thirtieth xmas, my thirtieth Easter and my thirtieth new years.
