- Webcurios 17/10/25 - Reading Time: 37 minutes It turns out that I am in a bit of a hurry today – THINGS TO DO, PEOPLE TO SEE, YOU KNOW HOW IT IS (I need to get on a bus, it’s all glamour here in South London) – and as such I am going to eschew too much preamble in favour of…

- Webcurios 10/10/25 - Reading Time: 39 minutes Oh Christ, it’s one of those days when I get to the bottom of Curios and have to write this opening bit and I realise that…nothing. I have NOTHING.

- Webcurios 03/10/25 - Reading Time: 36 minutes Leaving aside the obvious tragedy of the attack on Manchester synagogue and the deaths that resulted, and the miserable reality of the continued rise in antisemitism being seen the world over, it was also miserable to be able to broadly predict the way in which the attack and its perpetrator are likely to be…

- Webcurios 25/09/25 - Reading Time: 36 minutes You know, I haven’t felt nostalgic for the experience of attending political party conferences for…well, never, as it happens, they are fcuking AWFUL things.

- Webcurios 19/09/25 - Reading Time: 38 minutes DID YOU ENJOY THE POMP? DID YOU ENJOY THE CEREMONY? DID YOU ENJOY THE SYCOPHANCY? Well it doesn’t matter whether you did or not, YOU DON’T COUNT.

- Webcurios 15/08/25 - Reading Time: 42 minutes Have you detected a…a certain ennui about Curios in recent weeks? A degree of fatigue, possibly? A slight uptick in my mentioning how FCUKING TIRED I am? No, of course you haven’t, because I am a PRO-FESH-YUN-AL (a professional *what* is, of course, open to debate) and I wouldn’t ever let the mask slip!…

Ok, so this week I am eschewing any sort of pithy commentary on THIS FCUKING WORLD WE LIVE IN in favour of an update about everyone’s (ok, my) favourite annual awards – THE TINY AWARDS!

- Webcurios 01/08/25 - Reading Time: 38 minutes We’re not going to talk about w4nking AT ALL this week, don’t worry.
