Do you use ‘waze’? The sat-nav system favoured by Uber and so many others that Google bought the company a few years back. Its not just a ‘shortest distance between two points’ kind’a deal. Nothing like. It ‘knows’ where the traffic is, the roadworks, the speed cameras, and it avoids them. And it is, quite – Read More-
I was watching some football a couple of months ago; I know, its unusual. But I was. And Spurs superstar midfield genius and vunderkind, Dele Alli, appeared to have what I thought was a new tattoo. Nothing new there, footballers and tattoos. Its like love and marriage, horse and carriage, lawyers and divorce. Even though – Read More-
So Cameron’s Folly takes another little turn. The biggest mistake of the ex-PM’s life and career (other than forgetting to take his baby son when leaving a pub and driving off, but we’re all human) has become Theresa May’s gift that keeps on giving. She had Brexit thrust upon her, but that could be her – Read More-
We almost made it through the first weekend of Trump without a problem. Almost. Then the toys started getting thrown out of the Presidential Pram. And we learned a new phrase. That may define the up-coming term of presidency. I hope not, but you kind’a think it will. Coined yesterday by child-of-the-devil Kellyanne Conway, Trump’s – Read More-
When is a penalty not a penalty? When the ref doesn’t give it, that’s when. Similar to ‘when is a handball not a handball’? Unless its perpetrated by ‘our side’ rather than yours. Here’s the rule. Andy’s rule. Ready? At the end of the game you add up all the goals, allocate them numerically to – Read More-
Well, we’ve all survived the first 18 hours of the Trump presidency. In fact its gone rather well, so far. The sun still rose this morning, the tennis court still managed to accumulate sufficient fucking frost to render any play impossible, Tai Chi was still life-changingly awesome and no nukes fell anywhere in the world. – Read More-
I love a food fad. In fact, I just love food. Preferably in excess, but lots of moderation counts. As in, that was a ‘moderate’ food intake, now I’ll eat yours. But I love a food fad because they’re so transparently stupid. And they last for approximately 3 months until someone says ‘actually, if you – Read More-
Pep Guardiola, Manchester City’s outrageously expensive manager, took his lacklustre bunch of under-performing but over-payed fading stars to the cinema yesterday afternoon. To see LaLaLand. The Abu Dhabi budget could stretch to a few seats at the local Odeon. So I went to see it last night too. Only to see what effect the movie – Read More-
We’re leaving Europe. Brexit means Brexit zzzzzzzzzz… Yet Theresa May was impressive yesterday. Despite the clown suit she chose for the most important speech Britain has heard since Churchill met them on the beaches (different bunch of Europeans), she delivered her ‘plan’ with strength and force and a genuinely ‘don’t fuck with me’ attitude. But – Read More-
If you weren’t sure exactly what it meant, America is to have a new President which come in all shapes, colours and sizes For four years; gone before anyone realises. This new one is the colour of gold his face, his hair, all toned to what was ‘orange of old’ But being the Prez is – Read More-
