Read post

When I went to see Inside Deep Throat a couple of weeks ago, after I bought my ticket I was presented with a tie-in promotional lollipop. Ha-ha, I thought, I see what you have done there, for whilst I suck my lollipop it will be a little bit like Lin[…]

Read post

Mystery of urine stained books
This is a job for Hercule Pissoir. Or Sam Sprayed.

The Tyranny Of Choice
Read post

Menus are strange beasts. I am out at a restaurant and one is plunked infront of me, and I flip through its many pages. It rarely occurs to me to ask the waiter “what’s best”. Clearly something on there must be. But then if the chef[…]
