I just read that ‘55% of the food consumed by Americans is Ultra processed’. Wow! 55%!!! What they don’t tell you is: 55% of what? The overall calorific values? The overall weight? And is that an overall figure for the nation? Or that the average American eats 55% u/p food? However, as there is no – Read More-
I read the most terrible thing this morning. Convertible cars are doomed. The motor industry has conspired to take away the bestest, most fun, incredibly enjoyable experience that driving can offer in order to normalise the world into a homogenous gloop of faceless SUVs. Nah mate, ya don’ need a convertible, ‘ave one a these, – Read More-
Hi, its me again, Trish, from the Palestine Action march a few weeks ago. Remember? I was the tall fair-haired woman (not completely natural in colour but everyone says it really suits me) wearing Laura Ashley and my keffiah, singing about rivers and seas before I got arrested. Anyway, my husband pitched up with our – Read More-
There are numerous eateries in our country which are ‘banning’ Coca Cola. Because of its ‘ties to Isreal’. Which I think means an Israeli once drunk it. Probably Diet Coke. It’s very popular over there. Maybe that’s what causes the insanity in the IDF to commit all the atrocities they’re accused of. I’ve seen what – Read More-

I’d just like to say that, just like you, Mr, Mrs, Ms, They, Whatever, Football Fan, I have about the same degree of interest in ‘pre-season friendly’ matches that I do about Women’s football. And yet, just look how that one turned out after last Sunday!!! Now I’m an honorary Lioness (I’ve no idea what – Read More-
I am going to officially recognise the official state, officially known henceforth as Conwayland. I will lay down precise demarcation of this area, as agreed with my wife and both grandchildren (who have been promised princely titles and Lego sets). Furthermore, I will demand that Conwayland will be treated as an overseas territory for tax – Read More-
WTF is going on in Epping? A town made famous by being named on half of all central line tube trains heading east. The end of the line. The end of London. Deepest, darkest Essex. It’s a nice town. Sweet. Got its own forest, innit? A fabulous expanse of ‘wild’, where we used to go – Read More-
I cannot tell you how proud I am of my Lionesses. I’m proud to be English. When we win things. I’m proud of every single waggling pony tail and waxed thigh. I’m proud of EVERYTHING! Because in all the interviews after the match, they were all proud of each other. The word was used 247 – Read More-
My brother was a guitarist. From when he was about 12 until his mid-30s he was always playing. From school bands to ‘the big time’ which was a really great pub band called, for some reason, but there’s really never a ‘reason’, the T-Boys. They played gigs all around, but mainly they had their ‘residency’ – Read More-
