It's time to start watching the adaptations of A Christmas Carol. This evening it was Ross Kemp's modern (in 1999) retelling, which maintains the spirit (no pun intended) of the original novella.

Clock faces are traditionally set at ten to two or thereabouts in adverts as it represents a smile and thus makes the customer happy. Not entirely sure it applies to digital displays but respect for having a go Sekonda.

Only Fools and Horses did a rare thing in not relying on having the entire cast in every episode for the sake of it. The fact that Patrick Murray only appeared in 20 out of 64 episodes yet made a huge impact is a testament to his ability to own his scenes as part of a high-quality ensemble cast.

I was hot and thirsty as I cycled along the river, thank goodness for Nottingham Council's innovative bin fridges. Sadly it had run out of refreshing cold drinks so they need to step up the restocking.

Remembering Andy Warhol, born this day 1928. As a tribute, I made this very short film titled Warhol in the Supermarket, which you can view here

Bins fitted with screens is a good idea in theory, could be useful for displaying local information. I hope this pilot scheme gets rolled out citywide.

Devastated to learn that Ozzy Osbourne has passed away but it's comforting that he said goodbye in his home city and saw how loved he was.
