QUIRKY ALONE
Are you the sort of person who spends an inordinate amount of time on the internet rather than going to bad clubs in the hope of finding someone who'll tickle your punim? This could be your tribe.

MEN WHO LOOK LIKE KENNY ROGERS
Self-explanatory and one of the best ideas for a website ever. Check out their delicious 'Kenny of the Month'.

SCAMMING THE SCAMMERS
Some very funny tales of how the recipients of dodgy email pleas decided to get their own back - that's at 419eater.com!

ASTONISHING TALES!
Another excellent source of thoughts, ramblings, rants and rather a lot of reflections on Smallville. If we've whetted your appetite for interweb nonsense, head on over here...

AL ON TWITTER
Home Defence's co-creator will occasionally 'twete' thoughts on modern idiocy and Farnborough FC over at last year's social networking fad (if he remembers to care).

McSWEENEY'S
Literary without being pretentious, Dave Eggers' site is one of the best reads on the web. Particularly recommended are the Letters To The President which run the full gamut of emotions and could bring a lump to the throat of the most cynical of men (i.e. me).

BOOKSLUT
Folks are willing to whore themselves in return for a good read over the pond you know. And here's your indispensible guide to everything literary.

HOMESTEAD
And finally, couldn't forget to mention our hosts, for all your affordable and
professional site-hosting needs.

WALLFLOWERESQUE
HDUK founder Al Likilla's first novel (under a pseudonym) is published by The London Press and is available to buy through Amazon.

A contemporary comedy which, unlike most, manages to be both romantic and funny, the book features many unforgettable characters, a compelling plot, and lots of bears.
But then, I would say nice things - I wrote it.
BOTHAM SQUAB - YOUR PERSONAL CHEF ON CALL!
Yes! At long last you can call out HDUK's king of the prawn vol-au-vent for personal, gastronomic house therapy! From pretentious dinner parties, to a romantic dinner for you and the chav from the North London council estate - Botham addresses all your culinary needs at reasonable prices!

LEGEND PRESS/MARK PIGGOTT
HDUK contributor Mark Piggott's publisher features many excellent up-and-coming authors ignored by the literary establishment, while the official MLP site contains regular updates from the writer.

TIN SOLDIER
In the well-trodden footsteps of dead musicians releasing new material, a path that runs all the way from Biggie and Tupac back to Ringo Starr, the songs of deceased former HDUK contributor Bert Infiltration have recently made their way online for the kids to download. Why not join them?

OUTSIDE LEFT
A terrific webzine featuring all sorts of interesting pop culture-related stuff and miscellaneous creative burblings..

SUBMISSIONS:
  Will be gratefully accepted, although clearly we can't pay you anything and
  would recommend you don't use your real name. There are just two rules:

  1. It has to make us laugh.
  2. Sort out your spelling and punctuation before submitting anything. Tidying up the texts of
     others makes me feel like a primary school teacher. No one wants that.
