It was really weird walking through larger than life astonaut at the Nottingham Contempary. It felt like you were in a mix between A Clockwork Orange and 2001. Very disconcerting. I’m on line at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/guthlac http://simonmarchini…. Continue reading →

You have to admire Gordon Brown for his tenacity – certainly far more than I ever will be. I have been listening to the Clive Anderson tapes podcasts – which are now two years old – we find that Gordon Brown is still as unpopular then as he is now… Continue reading →

I have started to really think about what my ARPS submission is going to be about. I keep a close eye on what other people have submitted and it is a very broad church – how many of them submission seem to go for more exotic locations and creature… Continue reading →
