Final day of Wogan

Story location: Home / Blog /
18/Dec/2009

It's the end of an era. Things won't be the same again. Terry Wogan is leaving the Breakfast Show on Radio 2. Chris Evans takes over in the new year and I really hope he has matured, or at least stopped being such an annoying tosser, otherwise I'll have to avoid Radio 2 in the mornings.



Steampunk in Oxford

I passed the Museum of the History of Science while I was in Oxford. They were advertising a Steampunk exhibition, which looked interesting, so I decided to pop in and have a look.

Rather than being strictly history or science, the exhibition was of sculptures and models made by different artists. Some of the pieces looked like they could have come straight from an anime film. It was a fascinating collection. A lot of the objects were simply amazing to look at.
