The other week I tried out the kiln again to have another go and see how stuff turned out.

A few links for your perusal:

The trailer for the US version of Life on Mars
I really don't know what to say. I hope this emoticon :/ goes some way to showing to you how I feel about it. Will they have the scary Test Card Girl? (Did American telly even have anything like that?) If they'd taken the basic plot and then completely reimagined it then maybe it'll work but so much of the trailer is shot-by-shot of our version. And Chief O'Brien is just too nice to be the Gene Genie.

I saw the ever-lovely Elbow the other week at the Academy in Birmingham and I actually use this icon in a completely related sense. As I am made of fail I am only writing my review now when I've got a spare few minutes at work. Elbow, please don't think that I love you any less.

The band were brilliant, I love going to see them very much and they're always worth the ticket price.

9/10

And then the parking cost us £6.40 for two hours and ten minutes in a city Centre car park. Bloody Hell Birmingham, why rip us off so much! It's not as if you're a poor city. Bloody Tories.

My internet is all borked, so I'm spending my time wisely and instead of doing the housework I'm trying to catch up on my episodes
( that's very Ood )

Hmm, how strange, the entry has managed to delete itself. UNIT are obviously trying to cover it up

Greaseball and Electra are spinning in their sidings. Seriously. WTF?

Why the hell don't I have a Starlight Express icon???

ETA: and Grizabella would come down from Cat!heaven and send in Macavity to knock some heads together.

Is it this awful every week?

I can haz tickettes!


See Tickets!

Even better news (for you) is that I owe you all some money because instead of charging us £3.37 per ticket booking fee we've actually been charged:

£30 ticket - £1.80
£27.50 ticket - £1.65
£15.00 ticket - 90p

So when you come for the panto you'll all get presents of money. (Although is it technically a present if it's already your money?) How very cool for you all!

Dear Last of the Shadow Puppets

Muse would like their opening to Knights of Cyndonia back. Theiving little scallies.

No love

Look! He even responds to my title! Awesomesauce!!!

As some of you know, I've been playing at glass fusing for the last few months with a little microwave kiln and decided just after Christmas to ask people to donate towards a proper grown-up kiln for my birthday.

After doing *a lot* of research I decided on a kiln and I've been talking to a kiln-seller for the last few weeks. One thing led to another and I somehow ended up with £260 less in my bank account and a massive box waiting for me on my doorstep when I got in from work the other day. (Seriously the box was 70cm square!! The kiln's not much bigger than a sheet of A4 paper)

Of course, I needed to try it out to make sure it worked and that it hadn't been damaged in transit and that all the kiln walls were in good condition and that it actually, y'know, fuses glass so I cranked it up and set off on a test run.
