Heathrow departure queues! Originally uploaded by bobweasel. This is what terminal three was like tonight. A queue as long as the building:-( ...

I was watching a bit of TV at home on Friday night and found myself laughing out loud at Nikki Graham of Big Brother fame on 8 Out Of 10 Cats. Famous for being both spoilt and self-obsessed, the bleached blonde embarrassed herself admirably in the first 10 minutes by not knowing Heather Mills-Macartney only has one leg, not having a clue who Stephen Hawking is, and not realising the former home secretary David Blunket is blind.

The last 2 days, The WIRE have hosted another group of Danes who have come across the water (via Stansted at 1am) to witness our shining example of community work ;) The guy leading the team was none other than Peter Senholt who until recently was a teacher at Skovbo Efterskole. The last time I saw Peter he demonstrated his suicidal tendencies by taking his youth group on a fun-filled outing over the local by-pass. I just happened to catch it all on ...

Although the store is still relatively small, it beat iTunes and Napster to the title due to its eclectic and abstract content, high encoding rates and insistance of having all music DRM free. From the site: This summer Bleep passed the million downloads threshold, and is now home to over 300 labels and counting. All new music to the site is ...

The last 2 weeks have probably been the hardest I have yet had to face in my vocation as a youth worker because I have spent much of my time supporting particular families in crisis situations while wrestling with my own role at work. I have felt singularly useless and found myself exhausted of practical ideas or suggestions. After much ...
