Something Else

A pause [I hope].

Tue, 23 Jul 2013 10:48:05 +0100

The Something Else newspaper project and the accompanying web site has been put aside for a while while I try to find a job and organise some screenings of John Pilger’s documentary Stealing A Nation.

If anyone happens to visit this page and is interested in contributing to the project please get in touch. I am on Twitter.
