15 pushups at an urban golf venue, and four holes of the most surreal street golf you can imagine. It’s my brother-in-law-to-be’s stag do and it’s off the charts. More tomorrow, including pics with any luck.

The dangers of collaborative playlists
Had my work stag do on Friday night. It was awesome, needless to say – I work with good people, and my work best men did an exemplary job in organising the venues.
In the hour or so before we left the office, as is our habit on a Friday afternoon, we kicked off a collaborative playlist on Spotify to get people in the mood. Given my impending marriage, you might expect some cheesey / romantic tunes, and indeed, there were one or two of those. However, it seems that there are some cynics in the house (and even more on Twitter as @qwghlm, @krsjn, @flashboy and @jat45 started kicking in their own contributions). Think Charlie Brooker’s moodkill playlist and you’ll have a sense of what’s on there.
If you want to see how the final playlist shaped up, point Spotify here. Be warned; there are some fairly horrible songs in there :-).
