That Wednesday feeling

Ban bags and boozes, not knives and thugs?
Posted on 10:06am Tuesday 11th November 2008
A local supermarket has banned anyone from taking shopping trolleys into their shop. You can't drink in the town square or surrounding area any more. What is it with this current rush to pettily prohibit all sorts of behaviour that isn't really hurting anyone? If you ask me (and hey, if you don't ask me I'll tell you anyway), these things are a diversion – so people can pretend, to themselves and the rest of us, that they're doing something about their problems, without actually doing anything too challenging about any serious issues.

Champagne soirees and fond farewells
Posted on 4:48pm Wednesday 22nd October 2008
If there's one thing I've learned, after attending a private viewing of an art exhibition last night, it's that free champagne is a dangerous thing.

Venturing out into the (not so) big, bad world
Posted on 3:34pm Wednesday 8th October 2008
I've been out a-meeting and a-greeting in the last few days, which is unusual.
