  • Rest in Peace to the Wizard of Ozzy

    Over a week ago, on the way home from a comic convention in Birmingham, a friend and I were reminiscing. I told him about the time I was working a shift with a security agency at a stadium in Coventry — this was during the Olympic events. One day, outside the stadium, I spotted a…

  • Happy 2023!

     Happy New Year readers! It’s that time again where we celebrate the start to a brand new year after a night of boozing in town and singing Auld Lang Syne or however one prefers to celebrate.
