Discworld: The Ankh-Morpork Map - Review
The Discworld, a flat, circular world, held by four elephants standing on the back of a giant turtle, which came out of Terry Pratchett's incredibly fertile imagination, and spawned dozens of novels with unforgettable characters, exciting stories, and a unique blend of humour, is brought to life digitally on an iPad. More specifically, it's the city we come back to most often in those novels that you can now explore freely without fear of getting lost, mugged, killed, or getting food poisoning: Ankh-Morpork, a huge sprawling medieval metropolis, home of the most colourful characters you'll most likely ever meet.

Broken Promises
New Zealand's dirty secret is that it's rife with bullying and that the statistics for child suicides is one of the worst in the world. Not quite the "better place for the kids" they keep advertising themselves as, eh?

Interviewing Harry Fear
Harry Fear is a young independent journalist whose recent claim to fame are his reports from Gaza, including his experience of the recent war.
He's touring the world at the moment, helping to spread awareness of the situation, and Angel and I caught up with him before his talk.

Beehave - Episode 14
My wife and I have produced an online satirical show for a while. It started as an attempt to bring attention to the fact that there was no welfare protection for children in private schools in New Zealand. None. The school could expel you from one day to the next without ever giving you a reason or offering you a right of appeal. This dangerous and damaging loophole was recognised by the Law Commission and they proposed a review.
