...and you also do music? Yes… Well… I was in a band with Scroobius Pip collaborator The 6’ 2” Pianist. It was called crackpuppet (www.myspace.com/crackpuppet). I also played drums on Scroobius Pip’s album ‘No Commercial Breaks’ and I will soon be working with him again. I also make some instrumental hip-hop-electronic-stuff which is… difficult.

Can you believe it's not butter? I can. It spreads. Butter doesn’t spread. Even spreadable butter does not spread. Its bullshit.
What do you think of David Cameron? When he was in his phase of cycling to commons, a car followed him that carried his suit. Bloody idiot, is my actual answer.
If you were told you had 24 hours to live what would you do? I would catch a train to North Wales, climb Crib Goch, and watch the view while sipping Jack Daniels. I’d probably take a lady with me (to Wales, not the afterlife).
