Forza 3
I bought Forza 3 the day it came out. My reason for this was being destroyed online in Forza 2 by people who had tuned the life out of their cars, and I wanted to be in there early. And I was.

Catch up on demand
Not much doing lately, apart from incorrect smally fart allegations, conker hunting, climbing horizontal trees and explaining why pufferfish do that puffer thingy.

Watch out Lancashire, we’re coming!

Stewart Lee @ Arc, Stockton
Me and Mikey went to see Stewart Lee last night. He was on sensational form, moving from one hilarious story to the next with grace and invention, never living up to cliché or going for the easy line. Then Stewart Lee came on and Mikey had to shut up.

Some Albums I've Listened To Recently
Dizee Rascal - Tongue ‘n’ Cheek
I personally think that Tongue ‘n’ Groove would have been a better title. If you like Dance Wiv me and Holiday, then you’ll like this. Some awful rhyming and some pretty obvious samples. It’s as far removed from Boy in Da Corner as it is possible to be, Dizzee, I fancy, has sold out. The last 30 seconds of Holiday though, is the...
