Sweeny Todd: Blood on Celluloid

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

(Don’t worry about the banner above saying Christmas – the film company doesn’t seem to have thought about anywhere but USA) Just been to see Sweeny Todd at FACT in Liverpool. One of my favourite musicals – we staged it on when I was at school. Almost spoilt by the couple who needed to get […]

Why did the Pedestrian (Not) Cross the Road

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

I’ve noticed a lot of the new breed of pedestrian crossing and light controlled junctions appearing across Liverpool recently. They’ve got sensors to see if there is traffic, that the traffic hasn’t blocked the crossing and to check the pedestians are standing at the crossing. They encourage pedestrians to look in the right direction by […]
