Nick Ellis

You know it's gong to be tricky when the promoter apologises in advance for the blue light. Oh, it's OK, we say - we'll sort it out. Well, there is blue and too much blue. Ah well. Enjoyable evening at the Nick Ellis album launch, nevertheless.

Spent an irritating amount of time on the phone with Virgin Media to complain we have no broadband and unlikely to be fixed until Thursday. They offered me £10 credit and stonewalled me when I asked if they thought that was acceptable for an outage of nearly a week. Then had the cheek to like my tweet to them.
