whatever happened to rick astley?

is the question that arose in my conversation this afternoon with barny. according to what we could find out...

Rick Astley made approximately 20 million dollars when he was in the limelight. He now chooses to live away from all the stardom in Richmond, Surrey with his wife Lene, and his daughter Emilie. Rick Astley is now mid in his 30's and has been intermittently working on a comeback making pottery otters

robots are cool. robots are clever.

two fine examples of handmade robots.

firstly is the bobby dazzler of a autobot made by florian and alexandra for their daughter ava. notice the rich encrusting of large shiny crystal like jewels. these will work well for maximising and focusing death rays.

and secondly is probably one of the best christmas presents ive ever recieved - made by my lovely friend luke and coming in at a teeny tiny 7cm tall.

which reminds me i must finish the last of my robot army.

message to peter...

well, they've only gone and bloody done it again

as much as i love radiohead (and judging by my past blog posts i really do love them) they do wind me up when they do things like announce tiny little gigs at record shops about 2 minutes away from where i work, but on the day of the gig so i cant arrange to get the time off and go and queue. i don't mind sitting on the curb for 8 hours. i could take supplies. read a book. generally watch the world go by wait with excitement for something that has been a bit of a pipe dream since i first bought pablo honey all those bloody years ago.

but only if i can get the day off work. goddamn.

i hope my friend michael hasn't given up waiting. he was 5th in line and so pretty much guarrenteed to get in. lucky bugger.

one of these days ill get my turn. i hope.
