Incredible as it may seem, we are just about midway through 2023 already. We're just a few hours out from our traditional midyear repose so of course the rain is falling here in Bradford and the weather forecast suggests that is to continue throughout our break at our destination of... Morecambe. But who cares when … Continue reading Entropic State Report 28th June 2023

Entropic State Report 20th January 2023
Dear pards, It's a steely cold and foggy day up in the hills of Bradford, which I'm fine with. It beats cold, wet and muddy and I do find the crispness and crunchiness underfoot weirdly energising. I'll just listen out for the creak of massive wheels and remain vigilant regarding strange, distorted shapes in the … Continue reading Entropic State Report 20th January 2023
Entropic State Report 2nd January 2023 – Happy New Year
How? How is it 2023? The year of...? Um. At this point I wanted to list some science fiction film or book from my youth set in an (at the time) impossibly far off future. I came up blank. I had seen a tweet last week that suggested Zardoz was set in 2023 but it … Continue reading Entropic State Report 2nd January 2023 – Happy New Year
Entropic State Report 13th October 2022
Breakfast in the Ruins podcast is three years old! Well, actually three years and two days. Whilst we adopted Dec 18th as our OFFICAL birthday (for reasons explained in our second birthday show) this week marked three years since Episode 0 - An Introduction to Breakfast in the Ruins & yesterday it was three years … Continue reading Entropic State Report 13th October 2022
Entropic State Report 4th September 2022
Well, that's summer just about over. A record-breaking heatwave, some muggy, humid weeks and now into September - rain. And more rain. Feels much more traditional now. Accompanying the change, a good dose of lurgy has landed in this house and every couple of hours I've been alternating between teeth-chatteringly cold and slowly cooking in … Continue reading Entropic State Report 4th September 2022
Entropic State Report 12th August 2022
The world is on fire. When thermometers in Bradford, up in the hills of West Yorkshire, hit 37 degrees celsius something is definitely way off with the world. The UK is in the midst of democracy spasms as around 150,000 mostly oldsters choose their favoured mannequin to take over the reigns of government. One an … Continue reading Entropic State Report 12th August 2022
Entropic State Report 8th June 2022
It's been a joyous few weeks since I sent out the Patron Demon and contributor copies of Vol II of the Journal and I've heard back from most folks that they arrived safe and sound across the globe. So, despite frequent reports to the contrary, Brexit has not quite fucked up our postal system. HUZZAH! … Continue reading Entropic State Report 8th June 2022
Entropic State Report 5th June 2021
June already. Ridiculous. The year seems to be running away. Tolstoy said, “The strongest of all warriors are these two—time and patience.” Now, apart from the fact that that is plainly bollocks (the right answer is undoubtedly Conan and Thrud), time has definitely kicked my arse this past month in more ways than one. On … Continue reading Entropic State Report 5th June 2021
Entropic State Report 7th May 2021
Unbelievably it's May already, 2021 is galloping by, and hanging a shipwrecked monkey suspected of being a French spy is now officially only the second most eye-rollingly baffling thing enacted by the good folks of Hartlepool. Stay strong Hartlepool. I still love you for your patties. They may now be Tory patties but heck... patties … Continue reading Entropic State Report 7th May 2021
Entropic State Report 6th January 2021
The new year is upon us and... without much further ado... it feels much like 2020. Here in the UK we've entered another full lockdown and have been awarded the nickname Plague Island. Meanwhile our cousins across the pond once again have some 24 hour election coverage to get stuck into (and I must confess … Continue reading Entropic State Report 6th January 2021
