 Happy Halloween folks…hope you have a horrible time.

In other news: I am being interviewed on Sky news tmrrow morning at 10.30am (GMT) live on air…I would like to say this is a normal occurrence but I don’t normally don’t get out of bed before midday so this is definitely all new to me…(he said trying to be all dead casual n stuff)

As my gallery about smartphone dependence circulates around the world my gaze returns to the oldest social prop known to man, the humble yet lethal cigarette. I read this week that only 1 in 5 of u.k population smokes now, down from 45% in the 70s. This shows how effective the campaign against smoking has been…unfortunately the 1 billion a year that was spent on the nhs dealing with smoking related diseases is now spent combatting obesity related illnesses. What I don’t understand is, if there has been such a drop how comes all I see are people chuffing away on the street?  Is is all just smoke and mirrors?

Not sure if you can see but there is a beam of light which appears to be coming directly from the Salvation Army building. I have only just noticed this and as a devout atheist I am slightly at pains to point it out but as I did a piece on visions of God last week I thought I should at least mention it….
