HOMELAND is like a deep saucepan of spag-bol left on the hob for eternity (well, 12 weeks). For the love of beef and tomato, you cannot stop going back for more. And every time – it just gets better! Here’s why the EIC team now have no life. Not that they did anyway. 1. Nakedness […]

EIC finds this rather unfortunate looking lamp-phone, well, revolting really. It hurts to look at. Sorry if you have one. But we thought no-one would. If you do, let us know! (and we’ll unsubscribe you).

Medlar’s website looks more ‘corporate caterer’ than incredible French restaurant in Chelsea. But I’m pleased to say, having finally sampled some of its deliciousness, it certainly proves to be the latter. If you just got paid and are looking for a new bed partner – reserve a table for two (or three?) now. Because this […]

Especially not Adele, cos’ she’ll give you the finger. Gwan gel! And it wasn’t Blur’s fault. Why would you set up an award ceremony if people who win the awards […]
