Another day, another mass(ish) shooting in America. At YouTube’s hq in California this time. Fortunately (relatively) only 3 people were injured and it wasn’t at a school. This was on a different kind of ‘campus’. A Google campus. But this shooter was different. This shooter was a woman. A gel. A female. Ya get the – Read More-
Lila was born on April 1st 2017. Later that day Spurs beat Burnley. And subsequently went on a Lila-inspired run that was simply awesome. Lila’s presence not only provided me with a new obsession, the family with a new toy and everyone else with the joy of a new baby, but created a new attitude – Read More-
Lila is one year old today. How’d that even happen? One minute she’s a little pink soft thing and then suddenly… she’s a little pink soft thing. But one that crawls, eats, walks (with a LOT of help), points, grabs, gives you things, chews up the world and has a world of ‘character’, as they – Read More-
When we arrived in Exeter, Swindon, Loughborough or wherever, the canvassers were dropped off to try and get some leads. So the closers were done for the day. Well, until the evening when their work started in earnest. Or in ‘earning’ as was more appropriate. We were all self-employed and paid totally on commission. No – Read More-
I took a gap yaar in 1973. Ok, I flopped in my A-levels and decided to take a year out rather than stay at school and repeat the year like a rather beautiful retard. 6 months of working then 6 months devoted to study. That was the plan. As we know, man plans, God laughs. – Read More-
Anti-semitism in the Labour party; the gift that keeps giving. We all thought it was over. We pitched up in Parliament Square on Monday night, risked starvation as we stood in the fresh air with no buffet for almost 35 minutes!! and then later Jeremy C made his abject apology in all sincerity and heart-feltiness – Read More-
This is almost a first for any government of MY country. A tax increase that is remarkably clever. And trust me, I’m no ‘I WANT TO PAY MORE!!’, Melvyn Bragg type, neo-Corbynista champagne socialist. But this is clever. They’re making road tax a ‘flat rate’ of £140 a year, for all cars, including, for the – Read More-
There’s something horrible about cheating. Let me re-phrase that; there’s everything horrible about cheating. No redeeming features whatsoever. Because, quite literally, no-one loves a cheat. Not even me. When my beloved football stars take an unnecessary ‘dive’, I hate it, it reflects on ME for some reason I haven’t yet worked out, and I accept – Read More-
If you’re not an unrelenting petrol-head, or if you drive a Prius on ‘ecological grounds’ or are any other form of tosser or even a save-the-planet eco-warrior who will only get on a bus if its fully electric, won’t eat meat and name your children ‘White Rhino’ or ‘Cherry Blossom’, then look away now. This – Read More-
Jeremy Corbyn is a vegetarian. If that alone is insufficient to turn you into a major league carnivore then I simply can’t help you any longer. Although Jeremy Corbyn is also an anti-semite but I’m not suggesting that you all similarly convert to Judaism. Though perhaps you should? Maybe its time for Jews, who never – Read More-
