Modern Toss is the potty mouthed cartoon collective invented by former Loaded staff Jon Link and Mick Bunnage. Their cartoons are a sweary, abusive joy, including missives from characters including Mr Tourette and Drive By Abuser. I swung by the exhibition to see how Toss is going down in London, and saw the Shoreditch gallery [...]

You know, this picture- snapped on Hipstamatic on my iPhone straight from the telly, was retweeted on Twitpic over 3,100 times today. There you go.

Lord of the Dandys Sebastian Horsley has died: One of my favourite writers, who I was lucky to call a friend. I first met Sebastian Horsley in a toilet cubile in Soho, in 2003. I remember he was wearing a pink suit, platform heels and a large top hat, and it didn’t feel like there [...]

I took the new Canon PowerShot SX210 IS to Los Angeles on a job, to test it out against my beloved (and broken Powershot S80). nice results.

I helped redesign the Loaded business cards this week, as we haven’t had any since 2007. They’ve got a chequered past, the Loaded business cards: Once known as ’shag-tags,’ some were once stolen by a workie who went on a drinking and blagging rampage, until I caught up with him.

It’s notable really, for a surprisingly acrobatic save by myself (listen in the background for David James yelping, ‘great save!’) and the recording of my wrist [...]

Just heard a rumour that Supergrass have split up. That’s really sad. I spent a really nice day with the band at their local, in Oxford a few years back, with Loaded snapper Ian “Picture Bat” Dewsbury. Interestingly, his photograph of the band with a suitcase is being used right now on the net as [...]

I’m ashamed to say I never saw the Libertines play live. It’s one of my only regrets. Particularly when I watch the below YouTube clip of the band falling into the crowd at the Rhythm Factory, a gig that looks nothing short of madness. Just watch [...]

This month I’m helping a journalist friend compile a feature for a top-selling women’s magazine. She’s looking to find some alternative ‘footballer’s wives or girlfriends,’ for a fashion shoot and interview. We’re not talking about the predictably fake-tanned types you see in the tabloids. They want to find some interesting, independent and attractive young ladies [...]
