I blogged last month about my online shopping experience with Tesco ‘Home Delivery’ – A Disgrace! Having published my blog, I sent a copy to Tesco for transparency, allowing them to comment if they wanted to. At 1636 hours the same day, 35 minutes later I was sitting with my iPhone in tow, when an…
Earlier today, well 1749 hours to be precise (from the receipt) I had the unfortunate reason to visit a branch of the Post Office, London for my partner Alex. It was a case of necessity, rather than choice. For a while now, I have been quite saddened at the expressed demise of this once Great…
My partner Alex earlier today mentioned that one of our friends had got into the Pink List 2010 published by The Independent On Sunday newspaper. Not only had our friend ‘newly’ appeared in the top 101, but entered at a stomping number 8. Obviously, we congratulated him. Anyway, Alex and I then tried to work…

At 12.30pm today, I was walking along a road in Islington, London towards Angel Tube Station on what is a beautiful sunny British day. As I crossed the junction with a convenient store, to my surprise I saw ‘hiding’ an Islington Council CCTV car. Well, not much of a car, actually a ‘Smart’ Car parked…
