I actually look that blurry in real life.

About Me

Not much to say about me really. I'm 27, live in Coventry of all places, work for a big four accountancy firm as an IT auditor and play bass for a band called evenflowerskill.

This made me smile. And my girlfriend laugh at me.
You Are Dr. Bunsen Honeydew
You take the title "mad scientist" to the extreme -with very scary things coming out of your lab.
And you've invented some pretty cool things, from a banana sharpener to a robot politician.
But while you're busy turning gold into cottage cheese, you need to watch out for poor little Beaker!

My Interests


...although that's completely out of date now. There are two new songs on that page though, so go and have a look if you've got five minutes...

I'd like to meet:

People. Of all shapes, sizes, colours and creeds. I'm Equal Opps like that.

Music:

This could be a long list :) I like all sorts of stuff from hardcore (eg Poison the well, Fall of Troy, Sikth, Refused, Montana, Shaped By Fate, pretty much anything on Ferret, Trustkill, Equal Vision etc) through beaty stuff (like DJ Shadow, Blockhead, RJD2 and the divine Cinematic Orchestra) to jazz (Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk). My life is an empty space waiting for a soundtrack. God, that sounds pretentious :) Oh, and I quite like my band too :)

Movies:

I like all sorts of stuff, I watch a lot of movies. I like good films, not of any particular genre, but they have to be well, good. Recent films that have floated my proverbial boat are: American Splendor, Oldboy, Tattoo, Anchorman, Serenity, The Proposition, A Bittersweet Life, Sin City, Dodgeball, The Cooler.... there's way too many to list here.

Television:

Don't actually watch much TV. Love the Simpsons, regard Futurama being cancelled as a tragedy. Also love CSI, Family Guy, Garth Mehrenghi's Darkplace, Coupling, The League Of Gentlemen, Black Books, Arrested Development, Curb your enthusiasm, Peep Show, Mighty Boosh, Brasseye etc. To my shame I actually find myself enjoying Desperate Housewives too. Well, the first series was good anyway. :)

Books:

Like two types of books, funny and grisly. With occasional crossovers. Particularly love the Alex Delaware series of books by Jonathan Kellerman, pretty much anything Tim Dorsey has written, and still have an attachment to Terry Pratchett from when I was a wee nipper. In terms of an all time favourite book... well, I don't think I have one. Although 1984 is probably a close contender. Or Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas. One of those. Probably.

Heroes:

Tough one this, got asked it in a job interview a few weeks ago. I'll have to have a think.

My Blog

Funland

Funland is possibly the best new TV programme I've seen in the last year. Funny and disturbing. Excellent saturday morning viewing. And Dead Rising is awesome too. I'm having a good weekend :) Andy...

Working away from home blows.

Haha, so much for the overhaul... Currently sat in a crap hotel in truro trying to put off going to work. I hate working away from home. ...

Broadband is great

Finally got broadband, which means: a) This page might get an overhaul for the first time in a year and b) I'm much less likely to get fired for internet abuse. Hurrah! Andy...

work aversion

This will be the shortest blog entry ever, mostly because I'm at work and trying to fake being useful. Good to see I still don't have any friends in cyberspace anyway Andy...
