The sub-heading is 'There is funny shit everywhere... sometimes you just have to squint a little to see it."
Originally an online diary with humorous leanings, it now also covers my theatre reviews and interviews, interviews with musicians, actors, extreme skiers, you name it. The interviews have appeared in various magazines. Throughout, there are also examples of my long running humour column, Grumpy.
