That’s the first time I’ve ever written those lyrics down from Kate Bush’s classic, 100-year-old song. And therefore it’s the first time I’ve realised that ‘winedy’ and ‘windy’ are spelt the same way. How clever she was. Anyway, we’re once again celebrating Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte’s classic novel, the finest one she ever wrote. Ok, the only one she ever wrote. A book filled with passion, with love, with Yorkshire, with rain, moors, wind and… zzzzzzzzz…

It was my ‘o-level’ book for English Literature (which I managed to fail, alas) and I avoided actually reading it, in any meaningful way. As in, reading it. I started. A hundred and ninety-three times I started it and with my adolescent sense of commitment and duty, gave up on page 4 every time. I was 16 years old. The book had no reference to dragster cars, motor-cycles, semi-naked women or football. Even someone getting shot might have given me the staying power for another 6 pages, at least, but no. It was woeful. Didn’t make me laugh even once. There was an old film of it around since 1939, with Lawrence Olivier and Merle Oberon, which would have helped. So I clicked on ‘Netflix’ and it said: ‘come back in about 45 years’. We didn’t even have video players back then. I could have bought a script and acted it out, I suppose, with my dad as Heathcliffe and me as Cathy, but the script would have looked a lot like the book so that wouldn’t do it.

Later on came the Kate Bush song. Possibly one of the most annoying songs of my lifetime, but I watched Top of the Pops praying for an appearance, because I was in love with her. She was just gorgeous. And then she started moving. As if a ‘modern dance’ teacher had told her ‘express yourself as a salmon swimming upstream to spawn; whilst watching the 1967 FA Cup Final. Just… let it flooooooowww…’

And now we’re back once more, with the latest movie version of my least favourite (but oddly, one of Mel’s absolute fave) book. The new movie has received very mixed reviews. Its smutty. And it has Margot Robbie. Two things which would, together, normally have me queuing in Leicester Square overnight for tickets. But… it’s Wuthering Heights.

During my o-level ‘study’ of the book, I may have avoided reading it, but obviously, we ‘analysed’ various sections of it, for essays and discussion and such like. So I did read bits of it. And I must admit that at times the book had elevated itself, in passages, all the way up to ‘just dull’.

Whereas work is never dull. Yesterday, a guy I’ve known for many years brought his ‘new girlfriend’ for some specs and stuff. Oh, that’s nice. Peter is a loud and funny American who’s dear old wife died about a year ago after a long episode with dementia, poor thing. Peter is 82. And in walked the girlfriend. My jaw dropped. Stunningly beautiful 37 year-old Iranian woman. Bright, clever, funny and just fabulous. Oh, did I mention, Peter is rather… solvent. He’s minted.

Send me an essay of 500 words discussing the moral issues involved, the appropriateness and, more importantly, where you can buy your own one.

Happy Saturday

Life ‘down the Lane’ is never dull. The football is; that’s fucking dire. But life is sparkling. The kebab shops have never had it so good. As yet one more manager bites the dust. 8 months; plenty of time to turn round the fortunes of any football club. Didn’t do it; he’s gone; and the next one, step this way, please…

Into the eternally rotating turn-style leading in, and out, of the management suite at the Lane. I suppose it could be worse. We could be Nottingham Forest. Who today sacked their manager for repeatedly and blatantly failing to turn Forest into Manchester City. Even into Chelsea would have been acceptable, but no, they’re still Nottingham Forest, so he has to go. After about 3 months. So that Forest can get their fourth manager this season. But where do you go, to try and avoid relegation, if you sack Sean Dyche, the man you turn to to avoid relegation? Time to call Sam Allardyce.

Though in my heart of hearts, I sincerely hope that Forest go down. Or, even more preferable, West Ham. Because if both those teams manage to avoid joining the almost inevitable Wolves and Burnley in their relegation, then Spurs will possibly be the one to make up the numbers. And nobody wants that. Ok, I don’t want that. Lots of people probably do want that, but not people I could ever love.

So where do Spurs go? Who do we want as our new manager? More importantly, what manager in his right fucking mind would ever want to manage Spurs? Who prove to be ‘manager-proof’ in their consistency of uselessness. And of injuriness. Five managers in five years have all come, with the inevitable ‘false dawns’ which new management always produce, and then fail miserably. To either produce a consistency of form or, more importantly, to keep the players fit.

We currently have about 12 of our superstars in various stages of horribly prolonged and protracted recuperation. The training ground resembles a care home as half of our 200-grand-a-week stars hobble round on crutches, walking frames and wheelchairs. But this shouldn’t happen. Football clubs invest millions and millions every year on the finest medical advice from orthopaedic dudes, musculoskeletal experts, physical therapists, training gurus and a whole bunch of other seemingly worthless blood-suckers who seem collectively unable to keep a 24 year old in peak physical fitness from pulling muscles, straining ligaments or ripping hamstrings. Something’s gone wrong.

And we had a new manager. With a ‘proven record’ (he brought Brentford up from leagues beneath and, more difficultly, kept them in the top flight for 4 years, all with some degree of style). We even replaced our club chairman, in case that was the issue. Yet the malaise didn’t just continue but in fact deepened. They changed the cleaners at the stadium. Got some new chefs, even the old car-washer was sent back to the refugee centre and replaced with… someone else.

It must be the fans’ fault. So we’re all sacked. Season tickets will no longer work, refunds to be applied for. We’re getting some new fans in. Proper ones. From Arsenal. Chelsea. Millwall. Halifax. See if that makes any difference. As we plunge managerless towards the Arsenal fixture in 10 days time.

God help us. Someone should.

Happy, moany Thursday

We don’t choose our brothers. They’re just, kind’a ‘there’. And if you’re really unlucky, you lose one, like I did, to the curse of cancer, and if you’re even more unlucky, you get (the former) Prince Andrew as yours. Like the King did. Who yesterday stated that he’d be happy to assist the police in any investigation into his sleazy, nasty, arrogant, shitty, waste-of-space, free-loading brother. (His words may have been different). So now ‘the nation’ is calling for the King to make a proper ‘statement’ about Andrew. Oh, that’s a good idea.

What can he say? And what is the point?

In an ideal world we would look to the royals for ‘moral guidance’, but the fact is, royals have never exactly been exemplars of morality. Charles great uncle ran off with a nazi-supporting American divorcee. His great great grandad, Edward VII, spent his days, and most of his nights, with Lily Langtree, rather than his queen. There were very strong rumours about Queen Victoria with John Brown, or ‘Billy Connolly’ as he is now known. Causing us to rethink the whole ‘Victorian values’ metaphor. And let’s not forget that Charlie himself was shagging Camilla when she was married to his best mate. And continued his ‘relationship’ all the time he was married to Diana. Awwww, but ‘that was true love’. Which doesn’t make it in any way correct, from a moral standpoint, just a bit more sick-making in retrospect.

So what’s the King gonna say? Because basically he either knows nothing about Andrew’s antics with Epstein and the extent of it. Or he did know and did nothing about it. Which in all likelihood, he’ll deny. He may be King, but that doesn’t make him automatically stupid. If Charles was having a clandestine affair with Peter Mandelson that would make much better newspaper coverage. But still, probably, not much insight into his brother’s world.

Kier Starmer sacked Morgan McSweeney, his chief of staff, over the ‘Mandelson Affair’, which is related to, but not exclusively attached to: ‘the Epstein Affair’. And Starmer, rather than taking any blame on himself for basically carrying Mandy, lovingly and tenderly, into his role as ambassador, has thrown McSweeney under the bus of public cleansing. Morgan did it. Leave me alone.

Now, more interestingly, Ghislaine Maxwell has said that she will tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth about the whole matter… IF, President Trump offers her ‘clemency’ (her word). A deal (his word; the only one he can spell), and what; early release? New wallpaper in her cell? But as she is possibly the only person in the whole world who could actually name names, point fingers and dish the dirt, if they want to find out what actually happened. And with whom. Then Ghislaine’s yer man. If you get what I mean.

Happy Tuesday

I’m the luckiest man in the world.

I’m not a football fan. Because nothing could be worse. Ok, one thing: I could be a Spurs fan!! And every day, as I wake in the morning, and pray to the Lord for my eyes, my ears and, in particular, my penis, I add another prayer that I was not cursed with supporting Tottenham Hotspur.

Because if I had been given that horrendous cross to bear through life, I’d have been devastated yesterday when our hero, our captain, our ‘best centre back in the world’ turned back into the super-high-octane Argentinian thug which always simmers below the surface, was shown a red card after just 30 minutes of our game at Old Trafford. The match was balanced, Spurs were playing well. United were playing well too, so it was a worthy spectacle. And then… one mis-timed tackle, one near physical assault by ‘Cutie’ and off he went.

At which point, 10 Tottenham heads dropped. 10 pairs of socks lowered. Our form this season has been some way from ‘stellar’. Which is like saying ‘Croydon is some way from Alpha Centuri’. And then players know or feel or just innately understand that to give up a man advantage is suicidal. About 3 minutes later United scored.

And if I was a Spurs fan, I would deeply love Christian Romero. He plays with heart, soul, passion and too often, extreme violence. His passion gives way to a driven type of mindless excess. He should not be the team captain. The person responsible for keeping shit together. For motivation. For leading from the front. Not from the fucking changing room. His first job is to stay on the pitch. And hopefully (but rarely as it turns out) avoid yellow cards which will compromise his play.

He has so many yellow and red cards he’s almost ready to start playing bridge with them. Fuck knows, he has the time now he has a 4 match suspension.

Leaving Spurs, (which thankfully, I’m not remotely concerned about) within spitting distance of the relegation zone.

West Ham are on a roll. Looking like they’re about to rise out of the swamp at the bottom. Three more points takes them level with currently hopeless Nottingham Forest. Who, in turn, are three points behind Spurs. And Leeds and Crystal Palace. It’s simply not a great place to be.

So I’m soooooo thankful for my parents NOT making me a Spurs fan. That would be awful.

However… just for today, as a Sunday Special, I wouldn’t mind being a Man City fan, following their quite incredible victory at Liverpool. A goal down at 83 minutes and it looked hopeless. Then they scored. And as normal time ran out, they got a penalty; duly dispatched by Erling the Magnificent.

Then came a goal of such incredible uniqueness, of such remarkable, chaotic nuttiness, that it would be anyone’s goal of any season. It is quite beyond description; go to YouTube and watch all of its insanity. And it was so good…

That VAR cancelled it. No goal. Sorry. Too exiting, too wonderful, to ridiculous, too many people enjoying it; No Goal.

Every football fan in the world wanted that goal to be part of our collective history. So bizarre and so brilliant. But heartless, soulless, gutless VA-fuckin-R has no heart, soul or guts. Just ‘the letter of the law’. And that, my friends, is precisely what it totally wrong about VAR and why it must be stopped from ruining the game…

That I don’t apparently care about.

The rugby Six Nations starts this week. Brilliant, I love a rugby international. I can even tolerate the women’s rugby internationals, if I have to. All those thighs bouncing around in the mud; its like a return to the 1970s values, without all the moustaches. Ok, with less moustaches. And, of course, English women’s rugby is the best. They win everything. Which the women footballers do to, but the football is… errrr… is… is somewhat different from my normal expectations of the game.

But the point is: the rugby started last night.

Since when is international rugby played on a Thursday night? Friday night I can forgive. But Thursday night? Its just wrong. Don’t they know I’m at tai chi? Learning how to live forever, and hurt as many people as I can whilst I’m doing so. I can’t just not go because some horribly commercialised tv station has sold its soul to buy the rights and ‘the suits’ have found that the demographic exemplars of rugby followers like to seek their future shopping inspiration on a Thursday night. I don’t know if it happened but they were planning on showing commercials DURING the match!!! Like, they’re preparing for a scrum, let’s relegate that to a corner and fill the rest of the screen with dog-food. Tampons. Mitsubishi cars. Samsung phones. And diet-Coke. Don’t they know that some of us real aficionados need to see the scrum preparations. We need to make sure that every one of the forwards (and the scum-half) has readjusted their jock straps. Pulled out their wedgies. Scratched their bollocks. Its an important part of the game.

So yes, I greatly appreciate it when the rugby is on ‘normal channels’, up to and including Sky, for the purposes of this debate, and hate it when France vs England is on TNT or Disney Plus or Al Jazeera Sudan, because I may have those particular media vehicles but use them so seldom I’ve forgotten how to get on. But putting adverts on during a match is simply immoral. There must be laws, surely?

Ok, it was only France vs Ireland, so no-one really cares about missing that, its not like I’d pass tai chi to see such an inconsequential game. (Games only become ‘consequential’ when England are playing).

So let’s have no more of this ‘midweek madness’. Rugby is for the weekends. And I think ITV should be prosecuted for Contempt of Scrimmage.

Happy Friday

In Oliver Twist, Mrs Bumble coins the phrase ‘the law is an ass’. (In the upcoming production of that very play, by our local ‘Razz’ youth group, the role of Mrs Bumble will be played by none other than MY LILA!!!!) So the law is an ass. And yesterday that Dickensian motto was given new life for the post-millennial imbeciles in charge of our laws.

Because you kind’a think that those in charge of the judiciary are clever enough to recognise a ‘crime’ from a ‘nothing to see here’. But in this instance there was a lot to see. And, for once, probably because it was Israeli cctv, it was ultra HD quality. As we watched 6… operatives?… agents?… well, let’s just call them ‘assholes’, possibly ‘tossers’ because to give them their proper title involves a word I shy away from because women hate it. And we watched as they drove a van into and through a door to a factory. They then ran onto the factory floor, at night, so all was empty and locked up, armed with sledge hammers. I should note that they did look rather splendid in their matching red boiler suits and I’ll let you know who supplied their footwear as soon as it’s made public.

Once inside, they just smashed everything they could with their sledge hammers and crow bars. And once the security officers, and soon after the police, arrived, these Palestine Actioners just set about them with their sledge hammers and crowbars. Violently. As if there’s any other way to smash a hammer into a woman’s back.

I’m assuming that the jurors were privy to the same video we saw on the news. And trust me, whatever your political views, which should be completely irrelevant within the context of a criminal case of law, there was precious little you could call ‘ambiguous’ or ‘blurred’ or ‘uncertain’. Yet after 36 hours of deliberation, these ‘12 good men and true’, decided these 6 vicious vandals were innocent. The ‘12 good men and true’ thing no longer means they have to be men. And it would appear in this case that ‘true’ and ‘good’ are no longer requirements either. So maybe it’s time to turn that phrase to ‘12 useless, blind morons of unstated gender preference and not very true’.

Would they have been so blind to destruction, violence and assault if the factory didn’t belong to an Israeli company? Would black have remained black and white remained white if it was a Gloucestershire factory making cheese?

But the act would have been the same. Though sledgehammers might not be as useful on wheels of cheese. Bit messy.

So the jury, collectively, decided that an Israeli company is NOT offered the same protection under the law as any other. It decided that populist radical politics allowed them to make a moral judgment which flies in the face of the law. It set a precedent for the acceptance of vandalism and violence ‘if the context allows’. It has created open-season for these and other ‘urban terrorists’ to terrorise and destroy with impunity.

This is no longer my country. I know Peter Mandelson is hogging all the news at the moment, but this is…

This is a fucking crime.

Happy Thursday

A xxxx

I’ve always liked Peter Mandelson. He was always the cleverest man in
the room. Whether that was a room in 10 Downing Street with Tony Blair
or Gordon Brown or in a pub full of poofs in Old Compton Street.
Always clever, dry, funny and… clever.

So clever, it transpires, that back in the noughties he managed to cop
a load’a dosh off of Jeffrey Epstein. Allegations of 75,000, 55,000
and another 10 grand for Mandy’s husband to do an osteopathy course.
Probably why Mandelson always stands so straight. Not much else
straight about him. So it transpires. None of this money found its way
onto the MP’s register of gifts/donations/bribes as they’re supposed
to. And at the time Mandy was the Minister for Business. In which role
he lobbied government for lots of Epstein-favourable projects. And
passed the paedo lots of ‘information’, including confidential emails
from the Prime Minister and very ‘market sensitive’ stuff about
national debt payments and immense cash injections. If you gave me
that information, I could probably, given enough time, work out how to
make a few million quid before the news got out. Someone with the
resources and understanding of finances of Epstein, could make
billions.

And yet, with all that going on, there was one crime far more serious.

Not just wearing white Y-fronts, but being filmed wearing them. What
self-respecting gay man would ever allow such an act of fashion
suicide? Even straight men generally stop wearing Y-fronts when their
mums stop buying underwear for them. And it appears from several
photos that Mandy not only wore such horrible pants but spent most of
the day walking round in such a state of tragically uncool undress.

So now, another title falls to the sword of a dead sleazebag. First
Andrew became un-Princed and now Mandelson is banished from the House
of Lords and its only a matter of time before he is officially
un-Lorded.

Like Kier Starmer, (even though I don’t ‘like’ him), I initially felt
that all the ‘guilt by association’ with Epstein was a bit unfair, so
we all gave Lord Peter the benefit of the doubt and we made him
Ambassador to Trump. Because it is possible, but let’s face it, quite
unlikely, that Mandy didn’t know what sexual deviations Epstein was up
to. He’d probably needed to be blind and deaf, but let’s say its
possible.

But then he ‘got into bed’ with Epstein in a very different way. In a
way that is way more ‘treason’ than it is banter. And he got paid. A
lot of money. For selling secrets.

Mel and I had a ‘date night’, yesterday. We had adjoining appointments
with the same consultant Neurosurgeon. That’s true love. Then over to
Pita in Golders Green for dinner. Which is fantastic. Fabulous ‘street
food’ for which cutlery is not required. You just make all the mess
you like.

Happy Wednesday

We’re currently car shopping. Its my favourite type of shopping by miles. I love cars and as all showrooms have really good coffee machines, biscuits even!!!, what’s not to like?

Mel’s ‘lectric car goes back in March. We leased it because then the government paid for it, virtually in full. And its been wonderful. Except when it wasn’t. Which really was only when we had to charge it away from the house, or when it just turned into the computer it was built as and went into ‘hanging’ mode. Otherwise, its the dream; smooth, noiseless and fast-as-fuck.

So we’re getting a hybrid. We’re only saving half the polar bears from March on. As I mentioned before, Mel has pretty much one overriding criterion: it MUST have pre-entry climate control. When you can warm the car up and defrost it from your bed. Or even from other parts of the house. Long as you don’t have to get involved in any scraping, or putting your bum on a cold seat. Can’t have that.

And if you’re getting a hybrid, there’s no question that Toyota is at the absolute pinnacle of that technology. 10 million Uber drivers can’t all be wrong. And although everyone hates the Prius, they do make other cars too. ALL of which have climate control!!!! All we had to do was find one small enough, big enough, white enough (she likes white), cute enough, high enough, fast enough (well I have to drive it too) and climate controlly enough. And they have one. Ah, job done, we’ve found it.

Oh, but Lexus has one too. And not only are they part of Toyota but they also have a showroom bang opposite on the Edgware Road. You know the one: right by the bus lane where I GOT FINED 80 FUCKING QUID LAST FUCKING WEEK!!!!, when we went for the test drive.

So now we’re torn between two cars which are basically the same. Except… when you shut the door. The Toyota door sounds like a car door. And the Lexus one sounds like something sumptuous and smooth and very solid and luxurious.

Do you buy a car based on the sound of its door shutting?
If you’re not there, does it even make a sound when closing??? If so; who’s closing it???

Its not easy.

Just a mention of Spurs yesterday. Most amazing second half comeback by my lovely band of heroic superstars to draw from 2-nil down. Incredible. Even though Arsenal became the main beneficiaries. Whereas the team we put out in the first half, although they looked pretty similar to their replacements, were a hapless bunch of inept, half-asleep, lazy, good-for-nothing tossers.

Its only football.

Happy Monday

There are times when being a football fan defies all logic, all sensibility, any kind of decency. Times when your passions and your personal goals conflict in ways that defy any type of sane consideration.

Last night, as I was watching the absolutely fantastic match between Chelsea and West Ham, this problem raised its somewhat ugly but equally unavoidable head once more.

We hate Chelsea. Everyone hates Chelsea. You simply have to. There’s no choice in the matter. And most Spurs fans have less than zero love for West Ham. During the game I was messaging with Tory-boy, my son-in-law and ardent Spurs fan. And we shared our distraught that West Ham might win a third game in a row and possibly fight their way out of the relegation that they rightly deserve. Which sounds a bit ‘nasty’. But football is nothing if not ‘nasty’, so we both ended up ‘high fiving’ from afar with every Chelsea goal then scored. But we hate Chelsea. Obviously we hate West Ham more? I don’t know, but I really didn’t want them to win that match. Does that make me, and him, bad people? Probably, but we simply can’t help it.

So on to today. We play Manchester City. And, in terms of emotion rather than statistics, we’re in pretty much the same position as when we played City with Ange at the helm. On that occasion, if we had beaten City, which we didn’t, it would have almost secured a top four finish, and thus Champions League glory. But it would also have pretty much given Arsenal the title. And, along with most Spurs fans, because we’re all as stupid as each other, we wanted to lose that match. Sacrificing our own rather significant gain on the hope of scuppering Arsenal’s aspirations. We lost, Man City went on to win the title. Our manager raged against the fans. Because he didn’t understand. He couldn’t understand. He’s a Aussie. And his major footballing experience came from Glasgow. And everyone thinks that the Auld firm of Celtic and Rangers, driven by religious division, at times totally toxic in its extremes, is the epitome of ‘local rivalries’. Well, Ange, it ain’t. Never underestimate the depth of Spurs and Arsenal’s animosity. To the extent that you simply hate for them to enjoy success. Oddly, its not even about football. Its about fans. And although we don’t get to play, vote, make decisions or sack anyone, we create the general atmosphere of the club. And no-one wants to, or should ever, get ‘offside’ with the fans. Player, manager, owner, they can’t afford to lose the fan-base.

So this afternoon City will come to Spurs. Knowing that if they lose they will be giving Arsenal the title. Not that they’ll probably stop them, even if they win, but it will reduce the gap. And then we can all wait for the ‘slide’, the ‘slump’ or the ‘bottle job’ from Arsenal. If it comes.

Basically, you can’t help your feelings. And even if that results in acting in totally stupid way, its not ‘insanity’ as such, its ‘just football’.

I apologise in advance for any such feelings I experience later today.

Happy Sunday

A Very Bad Person xxxx

There’s a new movie coming out. On Amazon Prime. Jeff Bezos made it. It’s called ‘Andy’ and it’s the story of my life, told in ‘fly on the wall’ style, with particular relevance to the two terms of Donald Trump’s presidencies. Jeff paid me $40 million for this. And has put aside another 40 mil for marketing the movie. Which he’ll need because I don’t know anyone that would actually pay money to watch the movie. Trump fans will boycott it, on principle, and everyone else will say, ‘Andy? Who the fuck is Andy???’ Which is a real shame because the movie is really designed to show my modelling skills, my natural ‘beauty’, which is only ‘enhanced’ once or twice a month. Ok, once or twice a week. Strutting around in heels, wearing designer frocks and stunning jewels. All displayed magnificently by my natural pout. That Zoolander stare, which I call ‘ice, baby!’, and will be the poster picture for marketing. It’s a result for me, all I had to do was shag a fat, rich, controlling, narcissistic moron and I pocketed 40 mil.

And talking of getting a ‘right result’, Kier Starmer can be proud of his efforts during his 4 day trip to China. He’s proved himself not only to be a wonderful statesman, smiling at all those soldiers lined up to threaten him, but also an amazing negotiator, which is never easy in that nation. He did a fantastic deal in which British people can now enter China, visa-free!!! Obviously, most will then be arrested as ‘spies’, tortured and then we’ll never see nor hear from them again. But it’s a real ‘coup’ for Starmer. And in return for allowing half a dozen Brits each year to see the Great Wall, Starmer has given the Chinese carte blanche to build a massive espionage centre right in the heart of the City, giving it unlimited access to all the financial and defence details which it currently only gets by phone tapping and computer hacking. Now they can mainline straight in. Which in turn will enable China to basically ‘own’ Britain. They’ll put a few nuclear bases here, one in the gardens of Buckingham Palace, another down the Golders Green Road. Because Chinese communism doesn’t allow for such things as ‘monarchy’, so Charles will be deposed and we’ll have King Xi on all our stamps. So well done Sir Kier.

In other developments; have you read all of Jeffrey Epstein’s 3-and-a-half million documents, released by… some American, three-letter organisation or other? No!!! Why not? I read them all. Watched every video, scanned every photo and found… well, nothing of any interest at all. Not because he’s not guilty, though I think being dead trumps being guilty, but because if there was anything massively incriminating, juicy or nasty, that US department would have acted upon it, wouldn’t they? That’s why they’ve had them for years. Anyway, that’s not the point. We should all read every (fucking) document. As soon as we have a year or two free to do so.

Happy Saturday
