White Air: Why not mix the music with the sport? Next weekend is the "most extreme music weekend in the UK". However without exception, the music stages and the extreme sportiness coexist but never overlap.

This is not some Jamie aping exercise, it is a truly original idea. Ainsley Harriott is coming to Brighton to campaign against the humble chip.

Mr Harriot wants ...

Tim Dowling loves to google himself. But he has stopped, so he may never read this.

When not self-googling he champions ukulele players, throws out pot smokers and fills my Saturdays with the minutiae of his family life. If I was him I would also tell everybody about my life. Because I too would be payed to. Tom Dowling, what ...

 

Find a Fluffing Job

Let's not get into why the job search has begun again for the 100th time let's see why it has become harder. So, after re-locating to Cardiff and joining hundreds of agencies I resort to looking for a cleaning job, but alas, even the duster needs a levels now. The phone rings and someone from an agency ...

 

Looking hot on Brighton beach....  

  When the sun comes out in Brighton, a certain buzz fills the air. The beach volley ball courts fill up, the live reggae music starts playing and people start wearing a great deal less.   After sitting in the sunshine for awhile on Sunday, drinking my ice-cold Bulmers, I couldn't help but notice that a few of ...

 

Pan-Asian Pants Spin produced by Madame Geisha's PR team has sucked me into their vortex. toshio-saeki3 I was particularly struck by a full-page write up in a local free mag that was so conflated with praise a cynic might be mistaken for thinking that it wasn't a review at all but actually a ...

Dani and the Gypsies   The sun has been shining for me this week so I have been mainly pleasuring myself on the seafront.   As I strolled past the excrement of Duke's Mound cottage zone, I noticed that the council has thoughtfully provided a caravan park by the Black Rock trains station. They are to be commended ...

 

London 2 Brighton   Today saw the first of this year's oddball migrations to the seafront.   The Pioneer Motorcycle Run sent lovable eccentrics pootling down to Brighton on their pre-1925 motorbikes. Cute. There is nothing more endearing than a man so obsessed with his hobby that even his clothing and hairstyle is dictated by the era of his motorbike.   From now until ...

Monkey Brain 

I would like to begin by thanking the Hussy for giving me the opportunity to share my subtle yet profound thoughts with its readers.   My worldly experience does not amount to much, but that does not mean that I am not an important person.
