http://chrisratcliffe.blogspot.com/2010/02/stakeouts-and-takedowns.html
VegetableSeeds.net offers fantastic value for the highest quality vegetable seeds in the UK. Over 300 varieties with next day shipping. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. Why don't you get a proper job you f* king scavanger! Said a man wreaking of whisky at 2pm. I have not changed my scent, neither adorned my assailants with rose petals and buttercups. I have become Jack Bauer. The art of being a sneeky git has come quite naturally to me, yet it should not be underestimated in the world of press photography.

Thursday, 27 November 2008. A Long and short of it interview with: Kate Adie. If I happen to interview anyone of remarkable interest - which lets face it, doesn't happen too often in Perth - I will upload it on this here blog. This interview is particularly interesting,. 1/because it's with war correspondant, author and all-round amazing lady Kate Adie,. 2/because she makes some very interesting remarks about journalism, and how she 'fell in' to the industry. Let me know what you think. Go the power of r...

Clifford Investigates: Snooty
http://chrisratcliffe.blogspot.com/2010/02/snooty.html
VegetableSeeds.net offers fantastic value for the highest quality vegetable seeds in the UK. Over 300 varieties with next day shipping. Friday, February 12, 2010. A badger has been defiled by a shrew, a baby is born with no nostril hair, some fella is campaigning to change letter boxes to blue. these seem to be the top stories on days like today. The tension in the office is rigid as everyone is trying to motivate themselves to find a story, when the best lead of the day is that the blood van is in town.

The first rule of being a photographer. be there", was ranted to me by a picture editor in Newcastle. On this particular day it resonated loudly, as I dragged my arse to a royal visit where Prince Edward was going to be shaking hands with primary school children and old people who like buses. Oh what a charming bus! It gets in...

The Long and Short of it: January 2009
http://jennylongden.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 6 January 2009. Getting down with the locals (the vox populi). One of the best bits about being a journalist is that you can apply yourself to any social situation and pretend to understand the locals. We work for people, because we provide news to people, therefore we must speak to people. So, here's some of my all time favourites:. Asking men in the city centre of Glasgow “do you wear boxers or briefs? In Perth, in response to “Are gangs of children threatening? 8221;, a very posh lady said, &...

The Long and Short of it: 'The great snow break'
http://jennylongden.blogspot.com/2009/02/great-snow-break.html
Sunday, 8 February 2009. The great snow break'. It's dark. It's cold. A flake of snow falls from the sky and settles gently on the pavement. A little girl gasps and looks up. There's more! And by god, it's settling! Suddenly, the whole street come out and bask in the white flecked glory. No one knows what to do! They've never seen this fluffy, cold, flaky substance before! One would think the cockneys have never seen snow before. The front page of every national paper shouted IT'S SNOWING! And up in Scot...

The Long and Short of it: Superiority complex?
http://jennylongden.blogspot.com/2009/08/superiority-complex.html
Sunday, 2 August 2009. This blog is about competitiveness in journalism. No between person to person, but between different media outlets and different organisations. I'm documenting this, because I wonder if in 10 years time when I look back to the beginning of my career, I still feel the same. Maybe I'm being paranoid, but the following things have sprung to my attention over the last 9 months:. D) Journalists at a music festival approaching musicians press officers AFTER I've spoken to them, and then ...

The Long and Short of it: A life of stuff
http://jennylongden.blogspot.com/2009/03/life-of-stuff.html
Tuesday, 24 March 2009. A life of stuff. I succeeded in the getting a job bit. But it meant moving back in with my parents. Which sort of undermines the fact I’m finally salaried and have escaped the grips of studentdom and dependence on the parents. So it’s with glee that I can announce I’ve moved out of the family home and in to my own love nest with my other half. Really. What are two journalists with limited cash flow going to do with all this crap? The Long and Short of it. 24 March 2009 at 10:35.

Monday, 18 May 2009. A Long and Short of it interview with. Ian Stark. One of the many interviews I did at the Central Scotland Horse Trials with eventing legend (and my childhood hero) Ian Stark. Particularly interesting if you're a horsey person! The Long and Short of it. Saturday, 9 May 2009. DJing, horses and an hour of stress. In my job, I often find myself doing things well out of my job remit. I'm doing a news editor's job whilst employed as a reporter for starters. 8221; I hear you ask. Well.
