[17 Jul 2009|07:00pm] [ mood | nostalgic ] This was meant to be a comment on Kyle's post here about the passing of Momma cat, but it raged out of control and grew too long, so I'm linking to it on my own journal.

[21 Apr 2009|06:36pm] [ mood | sad ] Sadly, I found out a week or two ago that the Taurus Steak House is no more :o( According to their website, the staff and owner of this Welsh bastion of after hours munching just couldn't take anymore of the grim behaviour exhibited there every weekend. I fully concur with their thoughts behind why St Mary's Street has ended up like a scene from Dante's inferno and applaud xxxrated's (from whom I nabbed the second link) decision to site the new Bogiez night well away from it. How very depressing. 9 open doors| turn a key?

[27 Mar 2009|11:56am] Spookeh! I'm fairly ambivalent on the subject of ghosts, I did see something very bizarre once (in the company of boyfriend-at-the-time who also saw it), but I suspect it could probably be explained by a natural occurance in some way. But anyway, some of the photos featured are clearly the result of long exposures, but a couple are quite intriguing - I fail to see how the shot in seventh place could be explained away by a stick in the water! 15 open doors| turn a key?

A cautionary tale [07 Mar 2009|02:24pm] [ mood | disappointed ] Never buy faux suede lampshades in a fawny-camel colour. They may look nice unlit, but turn a completely dreadful retro-orange when the bulb shines. 6 open doors| turn a key?
