I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking at.
Do you know the story of King Canute? Hardly anyone does. It goes a bit like this: Canute, so frustrated by the sycophants and pygmies in his court –who claimed divine powers on his behalf- tried to persuade them otherwise.

No, I tell a lie, seven years. Before I’d even … Continue reading July 16 – Le Freak, c’est chic.
-I always assume that we are of the same cohort. Apologies if our grooves don’t run in parallel. There is much to catch up on. I owe you an explanation, I know, but not yet. Nearly.

In a desperate attempt to widen the appeal of this celebration of misery, I, like Sammo Bietch before me, with his ideas about football, have been offered this small corner of the internet to present my thoughts. My name is Cubby Begge and I will be writing about things that I have watched on some … Continue reading About this section
