Have you ever thought that men and women are different from each other? Ever crossed your mind? Do you still have a mind? Or has your wife battered it into a mere empty vessel on a life-support system (if you call that ‘life’) that exists for the sole purpose of agreement with her? Or him? – Read More-
In about 1968 I went Valentines Park in Ilford to watch cricket. Essex always played one of their fixtures at ‘our’ park, so it seemed rude not to go. It was a lovely summer day, bright and sunny, in the school holidays, and the cricket, against Gloucester, was as boring as any middle day of – Read More-
Remember Dominique Strauss-Kahn? He was the head of the International Monetary Fund who stood down after he was accused of raping a chambermaid in New York. Those criminal charges were eventually dropped more quickly than a hooker’s underpants… and that’s where the next problem starts. He’s in court now (appearing for three weeks only, limited – Read More-
I think we’ve found the next American Sniper. And he’s just three years old. Rummaging around in his mother’s handbag (as ya do), ‘looking for an ipod’, apparently, but I reckon he was looking for cash to go and buy drugs, he came across a 9mm handgun. And although the weapon had hardly any tunes – Read More-
Went to see American Sniper last night. Because its on. And Oscar nominated. And got lots of stars from lots of critics. And because some friends said; ‘let’s go see American Sniper’. Mel didn’t know much about it, I’d read reviews. She doesn’t like war films, I’m ambivalent. Not my favourite genre (that’s reserved for – Read More-
now all sing along: “Spurs are on their way to Wembley; Tottingham gonna do it again… etc. etc” The only problem is; we have to play Chelsea in the final of the Capital One Carling Budweisser Watneys Pale Ale League Cup. But is that a problem? Yes, but its not an insurmountable one, as shown – Read More-
This is a bokken. Its a wooden sword. Like you had when you were 7 to go play with your brother and with which to beat the shit out of your little sister just because you could. Except my one comes from Japan, not Hamleys. Made by virgins, from wood that has been hardened by… – Read More-
The Australians have awarded Prince Philip, the Queen’s main bitch, a knighthood. Quite right too. He’s old, he doesn’t do too much harm, other than insulting foreigners, and is as loyal to his wife as any 93 year-old held together with drugs, stents, artificial joints and sellotape. But Australia is not a particularly pro-royal place. – Read More-
The people have spoken. In Greek. And what they said was: WE DON’T WANT NO MORE OF YER SODDIN’ AUSTERITY; WE WON’T BE HELD TO RANSOM BY ‘EUROPE’ AND FORCED INTO POVERTY, NOT NO MORE. WE WANT THE GOOD LIFE BACK AND WE WANNIT NOW. So they elected the Syriza party in who have sworn – Read More-
Poor King Abdullah. Died. Ahhhhhh. Wouldn’t wanna pay his inheritance tax bill. The tax alone would be £759,665,391,885,24,081 and 47p. But they don’t pay inheritance tax in Saudi Arabia. In fact kings and sheiks and shit don’t pay any taxes at all. Don’t need to. When you live in a nation that pumps about 40% – Read More-
