A little lacking in spin right now, as we just played the show of our lives last night and my whole body, inside and out, ACHES. But we, the full eight piece LC! (let’s just call it “LC!”) will be playing in these places, on these dates. (All details to be posted shortly. To confirm, [...]
Mark from Islet made a joke during their show, asking, as there was The Venue, does that mean that was “The Pub”, “The Shop”, etc. I didn’t find “The Restaurant”, but there was a Chinese restaurant above The Venue so some of us went there. The menu was pretty widespread and cheap. I fancied something [...]
When I was young we used to go to a place called Pizza Land for birthdays and other special occasions. They had a pizza, which I would probably hate now, but I used to love then; Fish and Chip pizza. It was probably the most stupid concept for a pizza since Heinz’s failed attempt at [...]
When you are on tour, its always nice to eat in new places that you may never have heard of before, but sometimes its good to know what you’re getting. After several failed attempts at finding food we happened across a Wetherspoons in Dundee called The Counting House. It was pretty busy and didn’t have [...]
We have friends in the Aberdeen area and they had promised to take us to a cracking restaurant for lunch. We went to Carmine’s and ended up sitting in, what felt like, the front room. We seemed to take up the entire room and everyone else having lunch was on first name terms with the [...]

So as many of you had suggested Egg we went to it last night. Gareth and Kim had been to it earlier and had come back praising it. There was a nice amount of choice. I went for the Dahl and opted for half rice, half salad. When it appeared it was a massive plate [...]
Tonights catering was in Yales Café Bar attached to the Central Station. I opted to go for the pasta, which comprised roasted Mediterranean vegetables in a spicy sauce and garlic bread. Some of the vegetables hadn’t really been roasted. The pepper and tomato was still pretty much raw and despite it providing a nice contrasting [...]
So i’ve been expanding my vocabulary over the past few months. I’ve been avidly reading Nigel Slater’s Food Column in the Sunday Observer to see what sexy and salivating words he uses. For anyone who doesn’t know who he is, he is the greatest food writer ever. So if you want to suggest somewhere; not [...]
The Oscars fall between our UK and European Tour which is just perfect timing for me as it means I am available to attend! Mr Oscar give me an invite! The cinematographer from “All About Steve” must need a date?! (Actually him) You could nominate me in the “Best Use of Recently Reinvented Soap Opera [...]
