    Or if you just liked Paul Calf's Video Diary, you might be interested to know the Cornerhouse is shutting up shop soon and moving to new premises. So if you ever went to see some foreign ***** you weren't even remotely interested in, but thought it'd get you well in with the arty bird you were looking to cop off, you've got a couple of weeks to go back there and reminisce. You could even get some mung bean salad.

    If you've never seen Paul Calf's Video Diary, here you go. I've never seen anything better:

    I worked there from the day it opened, right up until fecking off to that London in 1988. Gallery attendant, cinema usher, box office, then the bookshop for the last year or so. Great place, top people there. Think they're heading somewhere down Whitworth St - is that right?

    Just off Whitworth St, yes.

    It was a smart little cinema, but the new place looks good too.
