Fopp is shutting down.

This is a bit shit. A great shop that for the most part priced their stuff fairly (or even way too cheaply). I recently bought the two volumes of Hilary Spurling's Matisse biography for a fiver a pop. Better set aside a chunk of cash to back-catalog it up!

Oh, and there were some bombs in London too.

Cheers for reading mate!

Penelope: Princess of Pets

This is the video Kristen Schaal showed us at the David Cross and Friends night that sent me into some kind of mental shock (judging by the blog post. The vid is funny.

Flight of the Conchords

This just made Will and me laugh like twats.



Its from my favourite new show(this week)Flight of the Conchords. It seems they've been around for ages, even to the point where they had a show on Radio2. Well it takes for them to get a show on HBO to grab my attention (even though i live in fucking Briton, thats how insular I've become). If you can download it or watch it, do, its real funny.

Adam Buxton!!!!! and comedies

Sorry I've been quiet lately but I been up to stuff. We went to Wimbledon on Tuesday (more of which coming soon) and yesterday I went to see David Cross and Friends at the 100 Club. it was a totally brill night full of some of the best stand up i've ever seen. eugene mirman was an absolute revelation to the point i've bought his latest CD on amazon. kristen schaal was a great surprise having only just discovered her myself on flight of the conchords. Her mildly disturbing but engaging act was a great foyle to the other brash acts. and the videos, OH THE VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!! i'm sorry but there was just too much ace stuff to talk about here. If you wanna know more, phone me or something, my heart is too full and i don't want to empty it just yet.

What i do need to tell you though is that I MET ADAM BUXTON!!!!!!!!!!!! and he remembered me from the radio show/podcast!!! He was great. His act was dead funny and unbelievably energetic. Plus, he was a very nice and friendly chap to this nervous, silly little man and was good enough to sign my DVD.



I'm still high from it all.

Goodnight Kiwi
