This is the Tearoom of Despair: Writing about books, music and other weird shit


Me and Robert Smith


The secret origin of the Tearoom of Despair


True Stories


I have very strong opinions about pies


The ancient and lovely shelving of Skara Brae


Inside the Majestic


This marriage is getting dorkier by the day


I only drink at funerals now


Happy to be the token boy


Paperbacks From Hell: The sweet smell of rot


Faith No More: Do you often sing or whistle, just for fun?


No fear like a nuclear fear


Fred Dagg's Meaning Of Life


Music videos in the dead of night


Tying the world together (and getting your end away) with Philip Jose Farmer


Iron Maiden: Barren wastes and decaying grins


I'm not a foodie, but I'm up for anything


The last CD at Disc Den


Wrestling with Superstars


Pulp: Catch us at it, in the front room


This lack of bookshop is bad for everybody


Wold Newman (or: The Ubiquitous Doctor Shade)


The six-minute clean-up


I was a teenaged arsehole


Spider solitaire: You have to cheat to win


The day we saw the Loch Ness Monster


How to find new music: No context, all feeling


I still think digital watches are neat


Writing about writing: Everything I've ever done, everything I ever do


Goodbye, Readers Book Exchange

Old toys are the best toys
