I've been meaning to write about Simon O'Brien all week.
Well, I suppose I HAVE written about him, but they were all news stories about his sudden demise as Radio Merseyside's breakfast show presenter.

A retrospective exhibition of the work of Sgt Pepper artist Sir Peter Blake opens at the Tate on Friday.
And I was lucky enough to get a sneak preview this morning.
In fact, it was such a sneak preview that they were still putting works on the wall down at the Albert Dock.

Northwest Vision has announced the shortlist for its new Digital Departures micro-budget film-making initiative.
Not the snappiest explanation of what essentially is giving people the chance to make a movie on a shoestring budget.
Well, £250,000 a film isn't to be sniffed at of course, but it's not going to make you Pirates of the Caribbean 4 (although that's probably a good thing - Johnny Depp is....Jack Scally).

What is happening down at Millennium House?
It's only Wednesday and the Culture Company has seen two resignations so far this week.

You nip off for a holiday and all hell breaks loose.
