Light bulb moment

Here follows a letter of complaint to Phillips regarding a faulty light bulb… To whom it may concern… I am the unfortunate owner of an 11w Phillips ‘Genie’ lightbulb that has started to fail. I’ve owned it for just over a year and it was purchased from B&Q in Watford. From what I understood of…

Oh yes!

Oh yes!, originally uploaded by mistersnappy. Confirmation finally arrived. I’m going to Glastonbury… who’s coming with me?

Here we go again!

Here we go again!, originally uploaded by mistersnappy. When I thought all was lost I found the I’d registered for last year’s event, even though I ended up not going. Better than that, I tried to book a ticket late in the afternoon and seemed to be successful. Now all I have to do is…

Today

Today I have mostly been writing here.

Jesus is not my cup of tea!

Jesus in my Kettle, originally uploaded by mistersnappy. Here follows an email I sent to Metro (London morning freesheet) to describe the religous experience I had this evening.

The childhood joy of space

It’s space night in the mistersnappy household. I’ve just finished watching Moonwalk One, which isn’t anything to do with the recently departed Michael Jackson, but a long lost film documenting the moon landings of 40 years ago. Obviously it’s highly recommended (by me) and available on Amazon at a good price!! To round off my…

Twitter Revolution and Foreign Policy

In an article in the Guardian Gordon Brown talks about how the internet allows people in oppressed nations tell their stories to the masses. He says that this this internet revolution gives people the opportunity to let their views be known and talks about this as if it’s new, like today new, like he’s just…

Biker Groove

Due to some strange loophole or legislation I’m just about to embark on the Ride2Work scheme from Evans Cycles. By paying for the bike over a year through my wages I make a saving of about 40% allowing me to get a shiny new bike to ride, the first new bike that’s come my way…
