The Bridge

Have written a short story, linked here called The Bridge; it's essentially about a drunk old engineer who killed three girls with one of his poor designs and makes up a ghost story to make himself feel less guilty about it. I hope that comes across. Anyway, I'm going to go over it and iron out a few things (namely, the ages of the characters and, ahem, the clarity of the plot) at some point and hopefully post some other things up there if and when I get the chance.

Olaf Breuning
















Here's an interview with Olaf Breuning which I did for Wonderland about a year ago which I forgot to upload. Interesting guy.

Fab40: Germany













Written a few tiny things for the November issue of Wallpaper* about things you can see in Germany. 

Le Mazagan















Just got back from the Mazagan, Sol Kerzner's latest hotel, in Morocco. It's 5*, though about an hour's drive from Casablanca, so it's quite isolated. There was a big bash to open it; Lindsay Lohan was there. The Mirror said she kissed Gerard Butler, though as far as I could tell, she was with her boyfriend, a guy called Petey, the whole time. 

Here's the review.

Kings of Convenience















Just got back from Norway; met Erlend Øye yesterday for dinner but didn't go on; then walked around with his bandmate, Eirek Glambek Bøe at the top of this mountain before walking to his flat for a nice cup of tea and then on to lunch. They were overworked but really nice. And am sure I saw the lead singer of Casiokids walking through central Bergen...

I later reviewed their gig at the Barbican.
