I couldn’t help but cradle my head in my palm as I read about the UK’s new equality law this morning. In a nutshell the government is trying to get people to hire more women, blacks and homosexuals (their words not mine). The media seem to have focused on the tv side of things what [...]

So it seems the geniuses at Comedy Central have decided that nobody outside of the US is to watch full episodes of The Daily Show and the Colbert Report online. The rest of the world can still watch the segmented bits but as of Monday 27th April, 2009 non US browsers are unable to watch [...]

I’m a big fan of the Surly Long Haul Trucker. In the time that I’ve had one it’s been an absolute dream to ride about and only seems to get better with age. I’m constantly pushing the limits of what I thought was possible to carry around on a bike and finding new ways to [...]
