Discovered new site called Groupla.com

The premise behind it seems to be that a great deal is secured by the assumption that a lot of people will be buy it - which is why it can then be offered at a lower price.

This is what they say:

About Groupola

"What's group buying?"

At Groupola, we call the process of getting the best deals in the city "Group Buying Power" - built on the concept of group buying, where aggregate demand helps to lower prices, we work with local businesses in offering a group discount on their services or products we like to partake in, theatre, restaurants, experience days, spas, workshops and many more activities, which will complete when a an agreed "tipping point" is reached as agreed with the merchant and only if a predetermined "tipping point" number of people sign up for the day's "Groupola"

The amazing bionic cat - meow!

I was really touched when I heard about and then saw the video footage of Oscar the bionic cat who had pioneering surgery to replace his lost back feet after an accident with a combine harvester.

Take a look at the video from the bbc.c.o.uk report here.

Wow - Pearl Jam was amazing

I just have to shout about how good Pearl Jam were on Friday at Hard Rock Calling (Hyde Park, London). WOW WOW!! They did an amazing 2 hour set list featuring a lot of old classics that the fans were dying for. Judging by the amount of T-Shirts knocking about the place - it firms up the general regard that they are the trend setters of the 'grunge' era!


This was there set list - think it deserves a Spotify playlist.

If you're a big Pearl Jam fan,  check out a review of the gig.

Pearl Jam truly deserve there own stand alone place in music and shouldn't be over shadowed by Nirvana. I love them more and more as time goes by.
