So here’s what they said: if you’re over 60, there is No Benefit in walking more than 6000 steps on your daily/weekly/monthly walk. 5000 is not quite enough, but 10,000 is worthless. Ok, maybe they didn’t use the word ‘worthless’, but reading between the lines, as I spend most of my time doing, that’s what – Read More-
Ok, this blog thing, this is how it works. How its always worked. My burning need to ‘share’. My internal imperative to inform you of the ways of the world because otherwise, quite frankly, you’d have no idea. Not a clue. Or you’d get it wrong. Like usual. So as an act of altruism, of – Read More-
Who knew how much they disliked Frank Lampard until last night? As his sad and sorry excuse for a football team crumbled and cracked self-destructively under the might and power of Super-Spurs, I wanted to feel pity for him. I thought I would. Sat in the dug out with no mates. I wanted to think – Read More-
The world is united in its condemnation against Russia and its near-universal support for poor Ukraine. ‘Near’ universal? Nearrrrr???? Yes, only near. Because there’s a little corner at Stamford Bridge football ground where the otherwise universality falters. A little zone in which there are other considerations in the matter, other than the ‘mere’ slaughter of – Read More-
So its been a week. A whole week, since they gave me my new shoulder. To be honest, its a bit disappointing because I still can’t take a serve properly, but I’ll try to be patient. A patient patient. And furthermore, I have no grounds for complaint as it really hasn’t been very painful. Hardly – Read More-
There’s a certain volatility in the Eastern European region which has always created issues. The entire area, from the Baltics to the Black Sea has been politically uneasy for centuries. There have been times and areas of unity but they’re only temporary. And normally centred around collective hatred for someone else. Like the Jews. Ukraine – Read More-
We need to talk about Vlad. I think he’s totally losing the plot. Never one having the greatest grip on reality, as everyone else seems to recognise it, he’s now just gone. The lies, denials, history re-writing is all fine when its ‘just’ about institutional athlete doping, sending hit squads to foreign lands to murder – Read More-
So I came out of recovery on Saturday, was wheeled to my room and Spurs were 3 nil up at Leeds. Unfortunately, I was 5nil down to the general anaesthetic and kept falling asleep so couldn’t really appreciate the wonders of the eventual 4-0 win over the Northerners. I then slept through the first half – Read More-
This is it then. My last day as a ‘normal’ person. Before I become… bionic!!! A cyborg. Part flesh, part titanium, bit’a silicone, few screws and bolts, like the fucking TERMINATOR! Though, obviously, I appreciate there may be a slight ‘lag’, a ‘period of adjustment’, from surgery, tomorrow morning, to the full ‘we have rebuilt – Read More-
For anyone born post-1945, today represents the greatest disaster that has ever darkened our entire, sad-and-sorry lives. Today is doomsday. Armageddon. The beginning of the end. Judgment Day. However, you can only get too upset by it. Because its so utterly typical. Putin? No, nothing to do with him, but Spurs. Losing last night at – Read More-
