Two things on BBC news caught my eye as I munched on my sarnies today:

1) Liverpool was named European Capital of Culture for 2008 today. Someone from the council told the BBC website that: “This is like Liverpool winning the Champions League, Everton winning the double and the Beatles reforming all on the same day – and Steve Spielberg coming to the city to make a Hollywood blockbuster about it.”
Hmm, I think I’d settle for just one of those, you know.

2) Someone was shot dead in brb in Chinatown yesterday. Bloody hell!

On a slightly lighter note, I found this article about how people don’t check the signature on your credit card slip rather entertaining.
