So me mate Dave… well, I have 17 of them, so best clarify; it’s not the one who lives up the road, nor the one who went to court for beating his wife. Not the one who for 6 years became ‘me mate, Doris’, neither. This is the one who lives in Canada. Oooohhhh, Canada. – Read More-
The City of Venice is beautiful. So Italians always tell you. And I get it; all that water, all those fab bridges, gorgeous canals and spectacular old buildings dating back to 810 since it was the ‘Republic of Venice’ and it ruled the Adriatic as well as lots of other places too.

What a fab weekend. How can it not be when the sun shines for 26 hours a day? But it’s what you do with those days which make them special. On Saturday we had an event. It’s called an ‘aufruf’ and involves synagogue, prayers, slaying of the third born, ritual sacrifice and drinking blood. Usual – Read More-

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 have private medical insurance. I have had it with the same company for about 30 years. And other than a few instances (new shoulder; what they reckoned was a ‘tma’ but I think otherwise as every test out of about a million came up negative, but there ya go) I’ve been a net loser. – 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.
