Radio4 is on! I have been typing for approximately 6 straight hours and my fingers hurt! I should be heading towards art and culture…

- Webcurios 04/10/19 - Reading Time: 33 minutes HELLO EVERYONE! What’s happening? Does anyone have any idea? No? GREAT! For once, though, I genuinely don’t care. I am about to embark upon a disgustingly lavish weekend of eating and drinking with my girlfriend, and, frankly, everything other than food, booze and the happy functioning of my gastrointestinal tract can get royally fcuked until…

- Webcurios 27/09/19 - Reading Time: 28 minutes HELLO I AM BACK MY GOD I HAVE MISSED YOU! I went to Spain! I saw some sun! I met an Australian millionaire who was responsible for coating one of Perth’s major roads with 1000 litres of concentrated sulphuric acid a few years back!

- Webcurios 06/09/19 - Reading Time: 27 minutes HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I wasn’t expecting this, I have to say, but as I prepare to take two weeks off (yes, that’s right, I’m AWAY!

- Webcurios 16/08/19 - Reading Time: 30 minutes HI EVERYONE! I MADE IT! Yes, despite having only had three days in which to scarf down all of the week’s internet, I have somehow managed to curl out an almost-fully-formed Curios this week! Yes, OK, fine, it might be a little light on the miscellaneous links and videos this week, but I’ve made up for it…

- Webcurios 02/08/19 - Reading Time: 33 minutes A majority of one! It could all fall apart within weeks! PLEASE GOD LET IT ALL FALL APART! It almost certainly won’t, of course, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t all pray fervently just in case there is a God – if there is, they’re definitely not a Tory.

- Webcurios 19/07/19 - Reading Time: 29 minutes Well, Donald might be a racist, but it looks like we’re getting one of our own in next week so, well, let’s not get too smug about how we’re ‘better than all that’.
