Fire Hazard is a company which started about a year ago, bringing with it the opportunity to act out those things you’ve always wanted to do. Yesterday I went on their heist.

Ten of us met in the back room of an old pub and were given our briefing complete with  maps, walkie-talkies, and other bits of useful equipment.

We had to stalk a security guard back to an old abandoned police station, break in, steal all the swag and get out again without getting caught.   The great thing about it was that everyone had a different journey.

I would definitely recommend the experience.

Went to see this over the weekend at the Hayward Gallery. If  I’m fully honest I was actually a little bit disappointed. The fabric (nylon)  is meant to represent the skin of the body, but it felt more akin to a giant pair of holy tights, and I couldn’t get away from this thought the whole way round.  It also felt a bit cheap. I understand that it’s site specific, but I think Neto could have invested a bit more in his er… nets.

I did like the squishy section where you stomp about barefoot – the interactive element hightened the experience here.

More sensuality, please!

I saw this ad for the first time in the cinema when I went to see *cough*SATC2. The whole audience  P*** themselves  laughing. I think we have a bit of a cow theme starting. You can’t not like cows.

Dancers: Head-boppers, deck scratchers and swayers. No it’s no okay. Being a man, and English, I have to get pretty inebriated to stem the flow of self-loathing and before I even attempt to unleash body form its arhythmic cage. So I suppose in part my annoyance is my own doing. But I just feel embarrassed for them. But not only that, standing near one is akin repeatedly being poked in the arm. It’s Monday, it’s hot, we are breathing burps and armpit-air. Don’t seem happier than me, I don’t want to know.Well I suppose that leads nicely onto bus DJ’s. I get it, the tube is noisy, Apple make some pretty crappy basic headphones. You crank the sound up to max, it sounds awful. You are a minor annoyance, I’ll be praying you get tinnitus. My real gripe is with people who play music out of their phones and then talk over the top. Stop making these fucking phones! They are the scourge of the underground. I can’t think of a single instance when something like this would be useful. What happened in that meeting? ‘Let’s create a phone capable of noise pollution,’  I have pretty appalling taste in music, I wouldn’t inflict it on anyone else. Yours isn’t much better. Singers. You don’t see them very often. There is a party of me which finds them quite entertaining in fact. But you can feel the collective shift away as someone stares into the middle distance, mouthing ‘Bad Romance’ in mono-tone. Putting up with crazies is something you learn to do living in a big city, and we become acutely aware of the tell-tale signs. Either that or it’s the smartest way to get a bit of extra wiggle room in the mornings. While I’m still spewing bile someone sent me this. I don’t think there is much hope.

I love this new ad by CHI & Partners for Anchor butter. It’s ages since i’ve seen a good reveal at the end of a TV ad. Whoever came up with the idea of cows getting grass out of a vending machine – brilliant.

It also made me ponder a bit what other animals you can make butter from. I’m just going to pop to Sainsbury’s to see if i can find any goat, sheep or horse butter.
