On Saturday, I’ll be live on stage with Brutal Unrest again.
Yard Brixton Windmill
We discovered Yard by not seeing them at Bearded Theory, when a load of our friends came back raving about them. In September 2025 we managed to get added to their guest list when they were performing at a conference for festival organisers. They performed at a venue called ...
I think `shadowrootcustomelementregistry` just took the lead in the longest HTML attribute race:

…though still comfortably beaten by your average German compound noun 😄

Club Gascon one last time
25 March 2007 is the date that Susan and I met for the first time. This anniversary coincided with the closing of one of our favourite London restaurants, Club Gascon. The restaurant is actually closing on Saturday 28 March but it will be busy and there is a March against the Far Right that day.
The first time we came to Club Gascon was about 2010 weeks ago went because my friend, Ben, had won a meal and couldn’t go so we went instead. Since then we have been about 10 times. It’s a shame that you won’t be able to go.
Meal
- Welcome course - Mushroom cigars, chilli clouds and Negroni choux buns.
- Amuse bouche - Leak mouse
- Black Pudding and Sweetbread Raviolo, Bisque and Lovage
- Truffle Glazed Foie Gras Pebbles, Blood Orange, Confit Kumquat, Black Treacle Cake
- Guinea Fowl Balllotine, Black Lemon Sauce, Croustous
- Fondue, Chou Rave, Tipsy Sauce, Chouquettes
The new YouTube video player allows playing videos in full screen mode when launched from a PWA on iPad. No more opening an extra FeedCity tab in the browser just to watch the videos I bookmarked to watch during lunch break.

I love the storytelling work that the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York does. For example, the Frame of Mind podcast highlights short stories of people’s relationships with museums – around fifteen minutes long each. It is a great listen.
Last year, I watched a video b...

New episode: the paradox of old-fashioned modern olive oil.
Some olive oil millers in Provence go out of their way to develop flavours that the EU calls “defects”. These oils can't be called extra-virgin, but they sell anyway.

Why I Like Working From Home
A friend was bemoaning the fact that he would shortly be forced to work only from home and replied thoughtfully to my challenge to blog his reasons: Why I Hate Working From Home. I have to say, most of Larry’s reasons resonated for me, because I generally love working from h...
🎬 PG: Psycho Goreman
Honestly, this was very entertaining. I was pretty tired, but this kept me awake, no problem. It's just so bizarre and funny. The daughter and her father are absolute comedy gold. And that policeman! The costumes are so good, too. I don't know, I had a great time and would most definitely watch it again.
👍 Recommended!
🎬 Edge of Honor
Plot is all over the place and there's quite a few scenes that make little sense. But yeah, for a trash-movie night, certainly not the worst flick. "Wait, how did they lift those enormous logs and … ?" "WHO CARES, ACTION, AHHHH…!". The finale is like Home Alone but in the woods and pretty entertaining.
