Whilst searching for gigs in London earlier this month, I stumbled upon a band called Massive Violins. Comprising of seven talented cellists, this London-based group perform a range of eclectic covers. Being their Christmas concert, I was swayed by the prospect of jazzy festive music – and thanks to my penchant for eclectic music, I booked a couple of tickets without even listening to any of their material, which is definitely a first for me! (On a side note, I also may have been aware that one of the members happens to be in one of my favourite bands who I’ve seen live a fair few times, so I had it on good authority that the performance would be wonderful anyway.) After a brief stop at Hache in Camden (no gig night is complete without a delicious stop-off beforehand!) we arrived at Cecil Sharp House on a cold and slightly […]

My Burger Kingdom for a Horse
The chevaline stall — you should pardon the expression — in a market in Poitiers. The current scandal over beef burgers “tainted” with horsemeat has me mystified, to the point that I’m tempted to downgrade it to a mere moo-haha — though it’s been hyped and sensationalized in every press outlet. Granted, one would prefer to know what one is eating, and even I observe the strict dietary rule of never eating anything that’s smarter than I am. (This rules out orangutans, dolphins, and, in some but not all cases, Presbyterians.) But unless one is an exceptionally strict vegan, the difference between eating a cow and eating a horse strikes me as extremely fine. It’s true that little girls seldom develop sentimental attachments to cattle, as they do to horses, and movie audiences are far more likely to attend a screening of The Black Stallion than The Black […]
