Sparky Malarkey: Reading list 2014
http://sparkymalarkey.blogspot.com/2014/12/reading-list-2014.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2014. OK, lets get the obvious out of the way ASAP: yes, I've been a rubbish blogger this year for the simple fact that I've not blogged. At all. Oops. Let's just say it's been an interesting year. So the last post I wrote was my reading list for 2013, which I would post a link to but seeing as I haven't written anything in the last 12 months all you need to do is scroll down if you're interested in taking a look at it. 01 The Complete Peanuts 1987-1988. 02 Maria M: Book One.

Sparky Malarkey: September 2013
http://sparkymalarkey.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 07, 2013. Your Best Ever Wedding Party. Hi, how are you? Yes I know, it's been a while hasn't it? Yes, I feel awful, I've been a bad blogger, but I've been busy, honest. Please don't say that, I feel bad enough as it is. Shhh. Please. Look, I know I've been a bad boy; just smack me on the bum and let's pretend the last seven months didn't happen, yes? One of my favourite bits of work, though, was designing flyers for a Toronto club night called Your Best Ever Wedding Party. Serious st...

Sparky Malarkey: Reading list 2012
http://sparkymalarkey.blogspot.com/2012/12/reading-list-2012.html
Monday, December 31, 2012. That day of the year noticeable solely for the fact that tradition dictates I don my tweed jacket with the leather elbow patches. Which, worryingly over the course of the last few years seem to have come back into fashion) and studiously run through all the books I've read over the course of the last 12 months. In all the years I've been doing this, 2012 marks the year where I read the fewest books - just 26 - but with good reason! Anyway, let's crack on, yes? The first Leonard...

Sparky Malarkey: February 2012
http://sparkymalarkey.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 29, 2012. Shake it like a polaroid picture. Let's make no bones about it: I was a fat kid. I can hide behind terminology such as 'cuddly,' 'somewhat rotund,' and 'big-boned' (snigger) all I like, but at the end of the day I was a fatty. It was only when I hit the age of about 16 or so and discovered badminton that I really began to enjoy any activity that got the ol' heart beating; before then, any raised heartbeat was probably indicative of an impending coronary. Well, first of all t...

Sparky Malarkey: January 2013
http://sparkymalarkey.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 25, 2013. The penis towel story. My penchant for a novelty towel to use while practicing yoga is well documented, with my favourite, and very first, being my legendary Star Trek towel. I mean, who wouldn't want to do full locust face-down in William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy? Well not anymore, because it has been RUINED. Face, at which point she pointed down to my towel and whispered the following five words:. It looks like a penis.". And then when class finished I left the room, wrapped ...

Sparky Malarkey: April 2012
http://sparkymalarkey.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 15, 2012. First flight and hello LA. So I did it - I bloody well flew for the first time. And surprisingly it wasn't the white-knuckle scream-fest I expected it to be. OK, so the emotionally charged farewell with Sparky Ma left me a bit of a teary mess, and then I had to surrender a lovely bottle of shower gel that smelt like macaroons because it was over 100ml, but I was remarkably chillaxed while waiting to board in departures. So anyway I'm here in LA now and it's . Well, a bit weird...

Tuesday, September 04, 2012. Things I like about America. Shamelessly stealing the title of one of my favourite books, Things I Like About America. I thought I'd reminisce about some of the things I, er, liked about America while I was off on training. Venice Beach. LOVE. AMAAAAAAZING hat shop. With added Transformers! Santa Monica's 3rd Street Promenade, home to an amazing Barnes and Noble. I really think I could make it big in the U.S. 8226; Bearing in mind we'd been warned at the beginning of training...
