Dear BBC/iTunes people

Why oh why do you insist on putting this twat in the comedy section…..

He may have a funny personality, but he is not comedy. Insulting people isn’t comedic, when he attempts comedy it’s shite.

So please whoever is in charge remove it. And maybe substitute it with some of those comedies from Radio 7 or some of the other shows on Radio 4

(I really do not read the D*ily M*il – It just sounds like I do)

London Midland Trains are….

…shit

So here’s the proof.

So there we have it, a fairly normal piss poor week at the hands of London Midland. Apparently they are French owned, is it possible to hate them more?

So, what’s been happening

I guess some are wondering how things are.

Well, baby has yet to arrive – Currently 4 days late. My spawn is obviously being sponsored by London Midland ‘Train’ company.

Also been fairly busy at work, last few days been on early starts, so I’m a bit knackered.

So nothing to report…………….

Library of Birmingham – Public information stuff!

To help celebrate the development of the new Library of Birmingham and the power of libraries in the 21st century Birmingham Library and Archive Services invite you to a special afternoon with poet, comedian & broadcaster Ian McMillan.

Thursday 16 October 2008
@ 4.30pm
@ The Library Theatre
Central Library, Birmingham

Poster to prove it!

No doubt they’ll be a bit of Whitby ‘the old library is shite’ spin about.  Still be worth seeing his face if the government decide to agree with English Heritage and list the site.

(and yes, I did just copy the word doc text)

Virgin, spend before you leave

Probably my fault. But when I left Virgin Mediocrity (mobile contract) I had built up around £50 in rewards. When I left they said this would be fine. However after a number of attempts to get in to the system I’ve called them.

Because I left everything is gone, so they’ve stolen my money. Still gives me a chance to post a picture from Burgy’s blog I nabbed a while back.

Thanks.
