This is a clip of Emma Watson talking to David Letterman about her recent visit to Iceland. She is clearly very much in love with Iceland; Letterman does not come across well during the interview. See what you think. Puffin Nuggets, indeed.
© Nick Miners Nick Miners (photographer) has released a book, Svart/Hvít, available in e-book and hardback formats. The photography is of Iceland, and as ever, I really enjoy Nick’s take on the Icelandic landscape. This set of photos are black and white (as per the title, silly) and are all the more moody and stunning as […]

I had a nice chat with Mike Lindsay yesterday, for an upcoming article i’m doing about his latest project – Cheek Mountain Thief. This was once I had explained that I wasn’t his electrician. I’m useless at electrics, Mike is going to contact his electrician to sort them out. I think its for the best. […]
Nick-named ‘Graskeggur’ by his Icelandic grandmother, as the letter ‘Q’ doesn’t exist in Icelandic, Quentin Bates is a writer for an obscure nautical magazine. Thankfully, he is a talented fiction writer, and not just adept to explaining port from starboard. Cold Comfort is his second work of fiction, and once more features Sergeant Gunnhildur as […]
