I sometimes forget that I am the only mentalist who talks to animals in their own tongue. Well, when I say their own tongue, what I actually mean is in their own tone. For example: cats have a higher pitched voice so I talk to them in that pitch in English dialect. I have a [...]

This week has been terrible, you know when you wish you could rewind and take sick leave had you been forewarned! I will relay briefly the days. Sunday – Dumped my dead car at my mechanics and just posted the keys through their letter box. Monday – Discovered my computer has a virus and possibly [...]

My baby is three years old today. Not baby in the normal sense, but in the sense of something I created with the help of handful of friends which has grown into a gaming home/hub for hundreds of people who I like to think of as my friends (I’ve certainly met some great people over [...]

Does what it says on the tin really, not much more I can add. One handy feature is if you choose to “Capture Region” then [...]

I don’t normally get suckered in by advertising, but I have to say, there’s something very appealing about the new Samsung Galaxy S phone. I saw an advert this morning for it in a newspaper (which I’ll be damned if I can find on the internet) which mentioned the Google Goggles app I’ve talked about [...]

Everyone knows potatoes are a little bit sinister. In fact, they’re evil and it’s easy to prove. Just look at this recent news story (thanks zombie) where Russian teens were slaughtered by Satanists and served with potatoes.

Being totally arachnophobic you can imagine my dismay when I read that a large batch of Tarantulas called the Chilean Rose, have escaped and been spotted around Manchester. I am itching just at the thought. If you find one though you are supposed to keep them safe and ring the RSPCA. I found a disorientated [...]
