This is me and Henry Moore. I’m the one holding the bottle. Mainly because this Henry has no hands. Poor soul. It’s an exhibition at Kew Gardens. In… er… Kew. Which is not that far. But allowing for parking hassle and the North Circular Road, we normally take the train. Its easy. Relaxed. Reliable. Not – Read More-
Elon Musk has reached a new pinnacle. Not content with being the undisputed ‘most obnoxious person on the planet’, which is possibly why he’s so interested in other planets, if he can find ‘life’, there may be a chance to find some… something even more obnoxious. But for now; he’s tops. And yesterday, with the – Read More-
As a celebration of my 70th birthday, various events have been planned. Not by me; we went to Cadiz, that was my planning done, these celebrations, on the actual birthday itself (like The Queen I seem to have more than one birthday; well, more than one celebration; same difference). So I spoke to Gianni Infantino – Read More-
I always thought that people from Northern Ireland had no faces. I felt sorry for them. Because whenever they were interviewed on tv during the endless years of ‘the troubles’ (read: ‘the period of civil war, bombings, murders, maiming and untold violence against their neighbours and against US!!!), they spoke through black balaclavas and wore – Read More-
So who voted Donald Trump as the world’s referee? Who voted for him to be anything? Not me. But he’s just ‘told Israel and Iran to stop shooting’. And, surprise, surprise, they haven’t. Mainly because his ‘ceasefire’ has not included Lebanon so the Iranians are retaliating on Lebanon’s behalf. Well, not Lebanon exactly, but Hezbollah. – Read More-
This picture is the standard ‘evolutionary progression’. There were many such images. Lots from the Victorian times put an unambiguous black man in the line-up, just before the white man who was always the ‘apex’ of evolution (such a phrase that has absolutely no validity; there is no ‘apex’; evolution continues, its what it does. – Read More-
Just one question to ask Elon (fucking) Musk and ‘the (fucking) office of Donald Trump’. Its this: ARE YOU ‘AVIN’ A FARKIN’ LARFFF, OR WOT??? The Henry Nowak murder has reached across the Atlantic. Though, obviously, they over there don’t seem to realise that such news travels in both directions. So for every tragic murder – Read More-
The terrible murder of poor Henry Nowak was indeed a… errr… a terrible murder. As opposed to a ‘good one’, or a ‘fun one’. Henry was killed, as are so many kids today, unfortunately, by a nutter. Anyone carrying around a big knife, with a burning desire to use it, not in an eating dinner – Read More-
You know those Japanese, right? Stiff, polite, buttoned up, neat, precise, smart, formal. Right? Actually it’s wrong, it’s just a façade; a veneer, to cover an emotionally repressed, sexually deprived bunch of perverts and deviants, who sit in cafes in their Armani suits sniffing schoolgirl knickers. Ok, not all of them. But the ‘take away’ – Read More-
(written yesterday; can’t send from a plane). I write this from seat 17C of a Boeing 832 or 485 or whatever, en route from Gibraltar. To my left sit Lila and Joey, plugged in, headphoned up and wired for two and a half hours of unrestricted ipad time. Or ‘quality time’ as they call it. – Read More-
