ON THE ROCKS!

Bam and I had been wanting to go kayaking for some time now, when a deal popped up on The Price is Wight website, offering an adult and child deal for something like 45 for two hours. Sold. [The deal is currently off but does appear from time to time].

We arrived at Freshwater Bay on a Wednesday evening into an empty car park. I asked the instructor – Matt – if there would be others coming. He said ‘yep, two more.’He told me usually there were groups of 7-12 mostdays, and we were his fourth a...

Awakenings 2016 (The Man in the Tulip Suit)

I’ve been toTomorrowland (twice), EDC Vegas, Ministry, Fabric, Club NL, and so many more places and events I cannot remember exactly where I’ve been!

Which is one of the primary reasons I write this blog; to entertain you and to remind myself of what I’ve done over the years… good and bad.

And this one was good. So fucking good.

AWAKENINGS!

This shit had been long on my radar and I’d wanted to go for a while. Plus, it was in Amsterdam; scene of some of my most (in)famous moments!

If you are...

Have you ever been stabbed?

WARNING: Even without photos, this ain’t gonna be pretty.

It all started with a piss.

Well, actually it didn’t start with a piss. Because I couldn’t piss. And it was taking the piss.

It was August last year (sorry for the lateness of this blog, but I’ve been busy failing a degree (which isanother story I owe you)) and I woke up and headed for the bathroom like every man does every morning of his life. I stood at the toilet, dropped my Iron Man PJ bottoms… and did nothing. I couldn’t wee. At a...

Therapy: Week 3

Originally posted on Alexandra Katrine:

I’m pleased to say that Week 3 was good and I know that I engaged more. This was because of the activity that the therapist used. The session was based around expressing my emotions. Last week, we discussed how I find colour a helpful engagement tool as well as visuals. So the therapist got out a pack ofEmotional Literacy cards. (These were the ones).

These cards each had seemingly random doodles on. For example, a brick wall, a broken heart, a sky, sq...

Tomorrowland 2015

So, in last year’s blog about Tomorrowland I wondered if I would get the chance to go back again.

Well, I did.

The Model and I returned to Belgium, but instead of camping we stayed at The Lodge in Vilvoorde. It was a beautiful hotel and was an old prison in one of its previous incarnations. It was obvious when you were inside, as the layout had the feel of a prison, and there were bars on the lower windows.

Our room. The number 007 seems to follow me around. It’s part of my phone number…

A(nother) Day in the Life of a Zombie.

I was in a zombie film, I’ve writtena zombie book, and now I’ve starred in a zombie music video. Plus I have a zombie tattoo. But I’m not obsessed. I’m not. I tell myself. Often.

Zomboys

The video is below. The excellent song is by the Isle of Wight band HOLLOWDRONE; comprising of Joshie Adams, Jack Singleton, and Andy Barker (who has now been replaced by Ollie Grant on drums). You’ll recognise the hunky hero as Yours Truly, and the damsel in distress is Alicia Penney.Both my sons are in the...

London Comic Con May 2015

Last year, myself, my youngest son Bam, and my friends Adam and Emily all took a trip to the MCM Comic Con held at the Excel in London. We had such a fun day out, but there was one we thing lacked… costumes. Everyone else was dressed up in fantastic cosplay, and we knew that this year we had to get in on the action!

Ad and Emily made their costumes, while I imported Bam’s and mine (at the last fricking minute), as well as doing a little DIY work myself.

The results?

Emily, Ad, Spider-Bam, and...

A general post about general stuff.

Originally posted on “To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.”:

As I’ve got older, I’ve come to realise that I really am an over thinker, and a highly emotional one at that. The world’s happenings really seem to effect my every day life. I get easily frustrated with all that goes on, knowing I personally can do nothing to change it, and there is no way of controlling the future, really, at all. I’m sure I’m not the only person in the world like this. For the first tim...

From Steampunk to Tavern Drunk: Where did the Social Assassin Go??

Originally posted on Social Assassin:

So it seems I suck pretty hard at this whole ‘I’m totally going to start writing again’ thing. There are a number of reasons why I disappeared for so long, and I’ll discuss some of those here in a moment. The reason involving 432 rubber ducks, six cubic yards of liquid latex and the Llandudnow Male Voice Choir is, sadly, still covered by a super-injunction, so please don’t ask. Over the last year, having been once a relatively regular poster, I dwindled...

Allie’s Way – An Interview With Allie Haze

(I’ll begin this blog by telling you that this interview is around 2 years old. I had the opportunity to interview Allie because a website asked me to. And I’m glad they did. However, they didn’t run the interview, and I figured it was a waste sitting on my computer, so I’ll share it with the world.

Bearin mind some of the information in this interview may be dated.)
