busy busy…

Quite frankly, I think I’m just too busy to worry about football this year. Maybe next year. Maybe never. Maybe when the Messiah walks once again among us. That’d be Gareth Bale then. Who, with his new beardy thing now even looks a bit Jesus-ish. Put a pair of sandals on him, maybe ditch the – Read More-

all out…

So there were two teams yesterday who were all out. First was the striking (bastard) tube (fucking) drivers, and the second were the Aussie cricketers. The only difference was that the tube strikers at least took a whole day. Neither group had any sympathy from anyone (British). Cricket lacks excitement, so people say. And normally – Read More-

good ole days…

There’s so much fuss about ‘back in the day’, about ‘the old days’, about how life was better before the internet, before the contraceptive pill, before the car. Well, its all bollocks. The old days were there, they were fine at the time, now move on. We all get nostalgic about Spangles. About actually going – Read More-

5 daze…

In just 5 days the football season kicks off once more. I know, its barely finished from last year and managed to drag its way limply through the summer (summer? where??) with the Gels’ World Cup and a bunch of soggy friendlies played all over the world as the Chinese and the Malaysians and the – Read More-

watch this space…

From each according to his ability; to each according to his need. Thus spake Karl Marx in his communist doctrine. And that’s how communism works. Everyone works as hard as they possibly can, 80 hour weeks in Siberian mines, flat out in a Moscow bank, laying bricks, selling derivatives, but only takes in return what – Read More-

numbers game…

British people generally and David Cameron specifically, have been accused of ‘racism’ and ‘xenophobia’ because of the ongoing and worsening migrant problem currently engaging the world. Calling them ‘a swarm’ was not Dave Cam’s finest choice of words, but no-one ever said he was clever when under pressure. Yet that term really encapsulates the nature – Read More-

bugged out…

What d’ya fancy for dinner? Steak? Chicken? Lasagna? Ants? You can eat what you want really. I couldn’t personally give a damn. Its all a matter of taste. However revolting that may be to others. Walking in Honk Kong a few years back there was a shop that reminded me of the insect house at – Read More-

all a game…

I’m anibivalent. Don’t look that up; I just invented it. Won’t be on google for at least a year. Its like a bisexual where animals are concerned, and their welfare. I love animals. I like to see animals. But I don’t have issues with eating meat, nor fox hunting (foxes are pests and need culling; – Read More-

storm in a c-cup…

What a fuss and bother over in Reims. That’s in France. Our neighbours and friends. Some mademoiselle was sunbathing in a park wearing a bikini, as you do when sunbathing, when a girl walked past and made a snidey comment. Mademoiselle offered an insult of her own and the two came to blows. Now that’s – Read More-

standards and privileges…

John (Lord; for the time being) Sewel is a Scotsman. I think its important to get that out there right at the start. And until Sunday he was the chairman of the Standards and Privileges committee in the House of Lords. The group that monitors, err, well, standards and privileges I’d imagine. To stop Their – Read More-
