Pizza update
Just wanted to let you know I had one hell of a pizza just now. You know the sort of size pizza you’d get and share between three or four? I literally ate the whole damn thing. Ham and pineapple. I was belting along through Edinburgh eating it and balancing the remainder precariously at the same time, like a waiter suddenly corrupted by greed. People looked both appalled and impressed. I bloody wolfed it, I can tell you. If you’re in Edinburgh, it’s the place just inside the Udderbelly Pasture. Aw, it was really nice. PIZZA.
Some people make out that the rise of blogging and microblogging (e.g. Twitter) has made us all into a bunch of narcissistic morons, idly yammering on about the most trivial items of our days in the delusion that it’ll be of some interest to others somewhere. I believe I’ve now finally proved this point of view correct. Thank you and have a good evening.

Sounds like we can rest assured that your skinniness is not due to starvation. Good to know.

Okay. As I type this there is a weird black splodge, which I think may be a bug, walking around on the INSIDE of my monitor. How is that possible?! I don’t like this. How the bloody hell did it get in there? What if there are more of them?
Anyway. Sounds like a damn good pizza. The appalled people were just jealous. Me and my friend walked around eating a tub of ice cream once and got much the same reaction.

This blog post can hardly be called trivial, as it has informed me of where I can get some good pizza the day after tomorrow, when I will FINALLY get up to Edinburgh!

I saw you at the back of Sammy J’s show, ”Potentially”, tonight. You were in bright green so you stood out like the flashing green man on pedestrian crossings, except you weren’t flashing… to my knowledge.

…but ‘stuff’ is always going to be of interest to someone, somewhere…thats the beauty of stuff,things,trivia…etc..etc…thats what i think…
….plus i’ve had such a good day…i went inside Paul McCartney n John Lennons childhood homes today..i was sooo excited i actually ‘eeeek’ed’ -this won’t interest many but its fun to share…well, everything but pizza….sharing pizza hmmmm thats ok… but,…eating a whole pizza is always a fine achievement…that, I agree, must be eaten as fast as possible whilst wandering the streets of Edinburgh!!!Jx

I only just read yesterday’s blog entry and now this. I am immediately struck by how difficult it must be to eat pizza “on the move” as it were, maybe this could be your party trick? Maybe eat pizza on an exercise bike, or jumping up and down on a trampoline?
I can’t eat anything, least of all pizza, without spilling a good proportion of it down my front, I have no idea why. Do they do bibs for adults? If so, you can get me one for my birthday Mark, I have that many white tops with unidentifiable stains on them now, it’s getting silly … x

I’ve just had pizza too. It was homemade. It was tasty. What I really want though is some cider but I’ve got a banging headache so it’s probably not a good idea.

damn you, watson – still an hour and a half til i can eat, and you wave this blog under my nose? i went to franco manca’s in brixton last week with a friend, and had an amazing pizza. each time i smell the basil i’m growing on the balcony, it reminds me of the basil on the pizza. damn pizza.
re: trivial blog – i considered writing a blog today called ‘achieved’ – it was going to be a list of all the stuff i got done, starting with getting up at 7.30 on a non-work day, despite falling asleep in 3 different places during the night (my floor; the sofa; my niece’s bed – minus my niece). definitely need the banal in amongst all this crazy serious shit.
