- Webcurios 12/04/24 - Reading Time: 35 minutes I went on an open-top bus tour through London last weekend, and, honestly, it was FCUKING GREAT and you should all do one. That’s it, that’s basically all I’ve got for you this week, just a general sense of unbridled enthusiasm for taking a bus around some tourist attractions – seriously though, it is ACE…

- Webcurios 05/04/24 - Reading Time: 37 minutes You know what, everyone? I…I really enjoyed having a week off. I know, I know, I’m supposed to say that I missed all the web and the links and stuff, but in actual fact it was really, really nice not to actually have to read 300 fcuking websites every day. Yes, I know that I…

- Webcurios 22/03/24 - Reading Time: 33 minutes THEY MADE FOOTBALL WOKE, ALAN! THEY ONLY WENT AND DID IT! (As ever, this is an INTENSELY-anglocentric opening line which I can only apologise to any non-UK readers for; although, honestly, for any North Americans reading this, it feels like a reasonable exchange for having to hear so much about that tedious fcuking anti-Apple case)…

- Webcurios 15/03/24 - Reading Time: 31 minutes This week in the UK, racism and monarchy – it’s just like old times! I imagine you’re probably all DESPERATE for something to read that isn’t about That Fcuking Family, in any case, so thank GOD for Web Curios, Republican (not in the American sense, for the avoidance of doubt) and largely-disinterested to the very…

- Webcurios 08/03/24 - Reading Time: 38 minutes HELLO EVERYONE HAPPY BUDGET WEEK DO YOU FEEL RICH? Lol! Sorry, once again I have to remind myself that not everyone reading this is from the UK, and therefore not everyone will have had the uniquely-unpleasant experience of having a succession of millionaires appear on television to tell you that actually, contrary to every conceivable…

- Webcurios 01/03/24 - Reading Time: 37 minutes I didn’t think that UK politics could be rendered more unpleasantly-risible, but the return of George Galloway to Parliament (and for those readers to whom this name means nothing, please do yourselves the favour of watching this, keeping in mind throughout that this man was just democratically selected by several thousand people as the best…

- Webcurios 23/02/24 - Reading Time: 36 minutes Gah! I have a call in 24 minutes and I am still in my pants and need to wash! Gah! Apologies, you didn’t need that image – but then again, none of us needed the sight of our elected representatives competing to see who could demonstrate the most nakedly-self-serving and venal behaviour while ostensibly pretending…

- Webcurios 16/02/24 - Reading Time: 35 minutes HELLO AGAIN CONGRATULATIONS ON NOT BEING DEAD! (Presuming, of course, that you do in fact consider continued existence to be a general positive – I’m currently ambivalent) It’s a lovely day here in London and I would quite like to spend at least some of it not staring into the digital abyss – so you’re…

- Webcurios 09/02/24 - Reading Time: 35 minutes In the 90s, did people in the US have to suffer through endless coverage of David and Victoria, their courtship and their eventual nuptials and the outfits and and and? Presuming that the answer to that question is ‘lol no you fcuking loser’, can someone please tell me why the fcuk it is that we…

- Webcurios 02/02/24 - Reading Time: 36 minutes February is the worst month of the year. January gets all the attention and the opprobrium, true, but it’s February that’s the real cnut – all of the misery of January with none of the sympathy. BUT I AM SYMPATHETIC! I FEEL YOUR PAIN! Still, WE CAN GET THROUGH IT TOGETHER! Here’s the deal –…
