Disabled Dolls - The DebatePermalink| Discussion:6 CommentsPosted in on June 27, 2008 at 11:44 am The air is thick with all sorts of things at Bizarre Towers: clouds of toxic gas, biblical plagues of winged beasts, wisps of neon yellow smoke…most of them emanating from Picture Editor Tom Broadbent’s crotch region. Today, though, the air is full of debate.

HEXellent - New horror attraction in Blackburn needs eerie actors, creepy characters and peculiar performersPermalink| Discussion:No CommentsPosted in on June 18, 2008 at 6:31 pm Desperate to be in the limelight but still stuck under the strip lights of the British Gas Call Centre? Toiling in Tesco or stacking shelves in Sainsbury’s when you should be lapping up your encore? Want to be treading the boards, but are just bored instead? This might just be your chance to spend the summer using your acting skills to make people soil their smalls with fear…and get paid to boot. New Designers Exhibition 2008 - talent more fresh than a vacuum-packed foil-wrapped daisyPermalink| Discussion:1 CommentPosted in Uncategorized on at 12:24 pm Morning puffalumps. The New Designers Exhibition is running from 3rd-6th and 10th-13th July this year, in Islington, London.

My goat is my sole mode of transport. How the hell am I supposed to get around without my trusty steed? Guess I’ll have to stay put and grumble about this article by The Times Online’s Doctor Thomas Stuttaford which suggests that folk who like to dress up in costumes or indulge in other fetishes have a ‘problem’ which should be ‘treated’ with therapy and drugs. Jeez, I’m glad this guy isn’t my local practicioner, or I’d have had my personality pulled out with pincers and every last drop of difference doped away by now… Read more |
