  • Looking who I may have been following…


  • If you care about children, please sponsor me for 10k run – https://www.justgiving.com/mandoescareboutallthat


  • Im back on the Vim train. Trying, once again, to learn to use it. I know it will be worth it if I stick to it.



  • Also, “Ellen Ripley” sounds like “Elena Rigby”. Just saying.


  • I liked how in the Aliens: Director’s cut, the addition of the scene with Ripley and Burke where he tells her about her daughter, makes the relationship between Ripley and Newt more special and meaningful.


  • Just finished the horror symphony that is Alien on the big screen. Now time for the balls-out, face-melting metal that is Aliens.


  • Guardians who have no discipline over kids and don’t even try, really do my tits in.


  • Yayyyyy. Looks like my home server was Ddos’ed. Boom!


  • Woman at the Sainsbury’s cafe queue getting a bit too upperty over the fact that there’s no ham left. Get a grip.


  • Tempa-T valentine’s gift tag

    When you’re looking for that perfect gift tag that says it all, look no further than Tempz. Love it.


  • Chas and Dave gig was thoroughly enjoyable – allbeit short. I didnt know many of the songs but it didn’t matter. Lots of jumping about and dancing. Brilliant.


  • Setting out to Leamington Spa soon to see Chas & Dave. Yer that’s right – you heard me.


  • Once again clever Dave had messed up my site. This time only my personal one, and I’ve only gone a deleted all the photos this time.


  • Lethal Bizzle Rari WorkOut ft. JME & Tempa T


  • Really enjoying Orphan Black.


  • JUTRØ – Travva (voc. LINDA)

    Dark, industrial, brooding and haunting. This song scares me – which probably has more to do with the accompanying video, but a great video it is. It feels as though I am falling down into the abyss of hell when listening and to be honest, when I am listening to it, I’m happy to just…


  • Long Way Home by Låpsley

    One of the first thoughts that came to me when I listened to Låpsley’s first album, “Long Way Home”, was just how ahead of her years she sounds. She has the air of an artist who has been around for over twenty years or more, when in fact she herself is less than that at…


  • The restaurant at the nature centre is like a rowdy feeding pit.


  • Interview with Queen of Hearts

    This week I had the pleasure of not only publishing my first interview, but also to have interviewed one of my favourite artists at the moment – London-based, electronic royalty, Queen of Hearts – real name Liz Morphew. Her debut album, Cocoon, is currently getting a daily playing on my headphones and you should check…


  • Snakes don’t belong in Alaska. Vulcan Raven — Metal Gear Solid


  • Just what I’d expect from someone with the same codename as the boss. — Metal Gear Solid


  • There’s no one I’d rather have in a fox hole than you. Solid Snake — Metal Gear Solid


  • I can’t believe I’m being hit on by the famous solid snake. Mei Ling — Metal Gear Solid


  • Restarting this fine game series and am gonna live message my progress. Just cuz.


  • Kicker by Zella Day

    The bohemian style of artistic life has always seemed like a very romantic one to me. The idea of an artist just upping and heading to a remote place for some unknown amount of time with nothing but a journal and a guitar and just writing for themselves. In today’s world of rushing about and…


  • This is amazing. I am genuinely addicted to this song. I imagine him as Jack Bauer singing about his wife.
