IN NO MANS LAND

I have had some good luck regarding a job though, the day before my interview at a supermarket I received a phone callContinue reading “IN NO MANS LAND”
Supermarket sweep
Its been a little over a week since all work disappeared, the last few days Boris finally shut bars, pubs and restaurants.

Time to HUSTLE like a MOFO

As we get to the end of VEGANARY, a new concept trendies seem to embrace forContinue reading “bloody vegans!!!”
I CAN’T ESCAPE WEDDING FOOD
“We do the usual kind of thing, soup, roast dinner and brownie type dessert”. As the manager of the restaurant is doing his best to tell us his wedding package options. For some reason he has lost his wedding coordinator, maybe he misplaced her, maybe they had a falling out, maybe she moved on toContinue reading “I CAN’T ESCAPE WEDDING FOOD”
