Big Boys Breakfast

Harry's moved on from special baby muck breakfast (organic and that, but with added sugar) to regular Weetabix this week. Quite a step I think you'll agree.Putting the subtitles on when watching BBC Breakfast is funny, we do this so as not to distrac...

"Experience Folkestone's nightlife", as travellers are being urged, may be questionable as a big draw card

What are the Independent saying about Parisienne, Pipers, Jolsons, etc?(I am aware some of these places have closed, but I am a bit short of other references...)...

John Lewis have discontinued the Bergerac range of furniture

John Lewis Bergerac has been replaced by John Lewis Ardennes it seems (according to the seller of these Bergerac oak chairs anyway. This has replaced our bookcases, and it's not the same detailing, so slim chance of us getting any more matching now. ...

What's that big space in the flat?

Apart from the 70 or 80 already mentioned all the CD's are now sold! Jen did a good job at the boot fair, sold about half of them, then someone offered to take the rest as job lot, so we agreed. So that's maybe 200 quid we got in total. For a lifetim...

kent.gov.uk/libraries FAIL

So www.kent.gov.uk/libraries is down right now, but this works if you direct to our library page... Come on, get fixing, it's not like it's a lovely night to be out somewhere or anything!...

Hmm will try and stop posting those big long links, sorry

If you're reading this on twitter.com/folkestone you don't need to be bothered with the fiendishly huge URL, now do you? I will use http://bit.ly or something in future. Sorry!

Folkestone Festival is looking good!

Bit of a retro lineup among the headliners of Folkestone Festival but that's exactly what's needed to get the thirty somethings buying tickets I think. Looking forward to this.Artists so far include Feeder, Ash, Gary Numan, Hundred Reasons, Kids In G...

Big old fire in London

The fire is in the Immigration and Appeals Commission building in Bream Buildings. BBC has more, though they're probably lacking behind what you can find on twitter....

Still no review of The Cure then

Had a good time at the gig, though as previously mentioned our seats were shocking. I'm not a fan of big gigs like that anyway, but would prefer not to go again than to be stuck at the back like that. Check the block you're being offered before confi...

PLEASE NOTE Seats located on Level 4 (Upper Tier, Upper Bowl) are not recommended for those who have a fear of heights

Was talking to a friend yesterday who was too afraid to stand up when she went to the O2 because her seat was too high up. I'm sure it won't be that bad, I am building it up a bit for comic effect, but crikey. Also: Please note there are planned engi...

I was just thinking about plectrums the other day

found one in the house, think I got it from a Darkness gig. I used to have tonnes of them from various gigs, but I didn't ever keep track of which one came from which gig. You are lucky, if ever this is a demand for plectrums from Big Country gigs, y...

Big spend up

May not have managed to get a car or a house yet but I think it's time to get a new camera. We used to have an old version of this and it was good, seems clunky and heavy and slow now and basically just wore out, so I'm looking forward to getting the...

The Cure / NME Awards Big Gig tickets

Not Folkestone, not even that local, but a fairly easy journey from Folkestone to the O2 Arena, one we're making, I'd hate for you to miss out too. It's The Cure, and they're headlining the NME poll winners party type thing. Officially sold out, but ...

NME Big Gig 2009 / The Cure support acts

Line up according to various sources (including last.fm) is The Cure, Justice, Foals, and Crystal Castles so far. The supports don't seem up to the standard of last year at the moment.UPDATE:Crystal Castles and White Lies will be joining headliners T...

Cure tickets on sale at 9am

Get them here, good luck. An initial batch already sold out through www.nme.com, guess that's why there are no advanced tickets that we O2 customers are supposed to get.Maybe see you here later if we miss out, though I'm not sure we'll pay much if Th...

Kosso bigged up on techcrunch

They call him a seesmic.com clone but they like him... I thought phreadz.com was still a secret actually. For the uninitiated, it's like a chat room / message board, but based around your webcam. So many people have them these days that it makes sens...

RE: Radio 1 big weekend lineup

Seems the BBC are taking matters into their own hands and creating yet another competition disaster - apparently both Hazel and I have registered! NO we haven't BBC if you are reading and I want them to tell me where they got all my details from.

I know more about the internets than Tim Berners Lee
