- 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!

- 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 21/06/19 - Reading Time: 30 minutes Man, holidays are good, aren’t they? The sun and the sea and the swimming and the ability to read books again and not having to pretend to care about the stupid clients and the stupid job and the stupid industry that you hate and disdain and want to get as fas away from as possible and…

- Webcurios 31/05/19 - Reading Time: 25 minutes OH HELLO! I finished a job yesterday and as a result feel GREAT – even better, I seemingly managed to leave without alienating or upsetting anyone, although that will probably change next week when they realise that I have a secret backdoor login to the website and fully intend to go and make subtle but…

- Webcurios 24/05/19 - Reading Time: 37 minutes Oh God, it’s going to happen, isn’t it? IT’S FINALLY GOING TO HAPPEN! Hello again, by the way!
