The End of New Onion

Posted in Local Politics on September 30, 2008 | 15 Comments »

Its with deep regret that I must also acknowledge that the New Onion blog has also decided to cease operations along with Politics.bm.

The End of Politics.bm

Arrived in Scotland – Blogging to Resume Shortly

Posted in Announcements on September 13, 2008 | 5 Comments »

This is just a quick note to say that I am now in Scotland, camping out in my maternal ancestral village of Kirkcaldy (yes, the hometown of Adam Smith and Gordon Brown) for the immediate time-being. I’ve been down to Edinburgh to check out my new apartment and move some stuff in. I’ll [...]
