Some call her insane, others choose to hail her as a hero. I’m not really sure what to think so I’ll do a Simon Cowel and let you, the public decide!

The Hood.
November 4, 2009 · Leave a Comment
Grantham is my hood and this is where I be for the rest of the week, as I attempt to write my first mini, factual, insightful adventure. First I need to get into the mood so I whip off my socks to unleash those size 10 surfboards and lay them to rest on the spongy cream carpet. There is a cup of Tetley Tea to my right, and a couple of ‘Nice’ biscuits to my left. I’m ready.
The adventure will be called, ‘London to Edinburgh via York, Pickering, Grosmont, Whitby, Middlesbrough, Newcastle.’
It’s time to put all those letters, words and fragmented sentences to use. Good use. I’ve never written an adventure before so I’m not sure how long it will take. I’m hoping to get this done within a couple of weeks. Want to get it right.In the mean time, feast your eyes on some photography that I captured during my trek up north.
More images HERE.
O yeah, I almost forgot again. We won gold at the Campaign Big Awards for our Barclaycard Waterslide online work, including the i-Phone game. You can see the moment captured on CCTV below.

Fuck Spain, I’m staying local’ish’
October 28, 2009 · Leave a Comment
October’s here and has almost flown past like the brown autumn leave that hit my face last night. 15 days holiday still registered in the green old school hardback folder that has a smell of the 90s.
What to do, where to go and who to see with my days of pleasure?
Budget ‘was’ tight so I thought I’d do my bit for the planet and wallet by travelling local’ish’. After weeks of booking, then cancelling my plans are finally saved.
Tomorrow morning I make my way up towards Whitby, via York. The reason being or not so ‘human’ being is that I’m going to track down Dracula. Yep, you know the blood lusting guy with those awfully sharp teeth! He made an appearance in Whitby. Check out the tour held by Harry Collett, also listen to THIS. I’ll also taste the best fish n chips in the world – I can’t wait.
The next day my journey continues further up north. I’ll be cautious from this point on. Firstly, it’s going to get cold and secondly I hear coloured people aren’t ‘that’ welcome. Middlesbrough. I’m here for an hour. A lot could happen, but I’ll be wise whilst I wait for the train to Newcastle. I hear lots of great things about New-castleman, night life, tits… anyways. 20 minutes connection time, down a few beers and possibly munch on a pie. Next stop Edinburgh.
Nothing planned on the Friday, maybe just ‘hang out’ here and there, get to know the locals and also try to find ‘pubic triangle.’ I’ll keep this for myself for now, but could be interesting. The next day I go on a mammoth 12 hour tour of Scotland. Check it out HERE. AFTER, I’ll spend my last night hear with the locals.
There was a reason behind my northern adventure but now I’ve left it open to see what I come back with. A short film, mock-documentary was always in the mole-skin. Hope it lives on. I’ve never been to these places before so it’s about the experience I’m going to gain whilst throwing my little rear, deep in to unknown shit. Could work, could fail. At least I gave it a go.
My only friends are a flip cam, Lumix, Holga and my macbook.
O yeah, how could I forget!
Tonight I’m off…
… wearing these
Keep those testicles crossed for tonight and my little adventure. Let’s just hope I don’t get too shitfaced and miss my 8am train!

Why Americans should never be allowed to travel…
October 20, 2009 · Leave a Comment
The following are actual stories provided by travel agents:
I got a call from a man who asked, “Is it possible to see England from Canada?” I said, “No.” He said “But they look so close on the map.”
I just got off the phone with a man who asked, “How do I know which plane to get on?” I asked him what exactly he meant, which he replied, “I was told my flight number is 823, but none of these darn planes have numbers on them.”

I’ve experience sharp prodding towards the anus, trying to change the wordpress url to something a little more personal. Well it’s done now, and I’m bloody chuffed. My anus still hurts, so if there are any remedies please let me know.

An Idea is not yours if you don’t do it.
October 2, 2009 · Leave a Comment
Don’t you just hate it when YOU have an idea, but never get around to materialising it?
We all have those eureka moments, where you feel you’ve been touched by god’s bell-end bringing you to a sudden halt. You then reach for your precious moleskin. A pen or pencil is always available.
But then the dust settles as time goes by; you have several more ideas thus forgetting the little gem.
Then, one day as your riding the tube in to work. There it is. YOUR idea, thought, eureka moment, epiphany, only to be executed by a plumb who has all the time in the world.
Let me step back a little, before I sound even more of a cunt.
Credit is giving, where it’s due. A huge *HARD slap on the back to Sam Wilson ‘South African TV Writer’, for creating ‘I’ll scream your Tweets’.
Simples… 1 man standing on Cape Towns’ Table Mountain shouting out your tweets.
The thought of taking something digital and pumping back out to analogue is genius.
A similar thought popped up as I submitted my entrance to take part on the fourth plinth.
I’d become either the messenger of happiness or the bearer of bad news by shouting out people’s tweets off the plinth. O well, I never got a place so no love lost.
It seems so long ago when ‘we’ would get an idea and then execute it. Time was putty and our hands were eager at University. These days I don’t get time to wipe my arse properly, hence why I always have that pesky turtle giving my pants grief!
However, a few personal projects are lurking around and here is one that’s escaped the closed pages of the moleskin.
Idea – A month in 60seconds.
If you happen to know me or have the pleasure of my company, you’ll notice that I’m always filming my surroundings, to the extreme annoyance from the other side of the lens.
My goal is to get better at editing short films so I’ve decided to edit the footage I capture in a month, to 60seconds. No poncy soundtrack will be used, just real sound. Here is July and August 60 second make overs.
Hopefully the will be a progression is quality as I go on.
