Massive Attack - Meltdown @ SouthBank Centre

It's getting closer....We're excited!
We love Grant and Delj. Meltdown should be more than a music festival, and hopefully very visual. I can't wait to hear who's playing on Sunday.If you live in Bristol you'll encounter Massive Attack in one form or another, whether you see Grant driving around in his Westfalia VW or DJing at a venue in the city. If you keep your eyes open, they're very much part of the city I've been part of too, and they're never predictable and corporate.
My first big gig thing with them was I think in '94 at Ashton Court house, where you were greeted by a 5ft model of 'EuroChild' in all it's vinyl glory, and you then had a choice of going to the chill out room, where Grant was DJing or going to another room where there was a buffet (complete with vol-au-vents and things on sticks). It was a pretty strange gig, but at least it was memorable.
Roll on Sunday!

Spring-ey, Summer-ey Happy List

With Spring comes renewed interest in doing happy, summery things (it’s sort of like a New Year’s resolution list, but in April - here’s my list)

- give up my morning coffee which has 2 sugars in it – (replaced with lemon & honey teabags)

- cycle to work (which is getting to be a 2-3 day a week thing)


- Sort my blondish hair out (it’s got weird dark blonde stripes in it – I have such a love/hate relationship with it)


- Not spend so much money on buying lunch


- Draw something, anything every day, instead of reading about it – (it’s more like 2-3 times a week – I painted some mini Marshall amps the other day)

- Start a blog about famous Jack Russells (a Heat magazine blog for Dxtr and Dsy)

It's sunny, it's spring!

Lovely Ashton Court with the lovely Miss Daisy.

Weather's been a little weird at the moment, but it seems to be predominantly sunny (freezing as well), but this means very happy poochs.

Smorkin' Labbit - Kozik

I sooooo want this. Kozik is still producing fabulous toy-related artifacts even though he's changed direction in his work. The smokin' rabbit still lives on in this stool.




Get your smorkin' labbit sit-ey down thing here from KidRobot for $1000.
