Who said they were mutually exclusive? Death and taxes?? It was never implied or stated that the two ‘guarantees’ in life; death and taxes, were totally independent of one another. Because the dead will now be required to pay tax. In fact, they always have, in the form of ‘inheritance tax’ or as they now – Read More-
Ok, having said how I’m nostalgia-immune from the whole White Hart Lane thing, I’m now basking in the stuff. Positively wallowing. The little vignette they showed yesterday before the ‘legends’ walked onto the pitch in the pouring rain was wonderful. And so many times I called out (to no-one really, Mel was busy nearby but – Read More-
At White Hart Lane, in the upper east stand, which seats, I reckon, about 3000 people, there are two toilets for ladies. Not two rooms of toilets, not two areas where toilet may be partaken, just two stalls. You learn these things when you have daughters.

No doubt he deserved sacking. Re-introducing at a public level an ongoing investigation, 11 days before a presidential election can only be seen as a – Read More-
I don’t know if you remember the famous ‘pink man’ incident? When half of a handless pink man suddenly appeared in our garden many years back. Would have been really weird and spooky and Twilight Zone, if we hadn’t placed him carefully between the rhododendron and the rosebush ourselves. And bizarrely, he’s a very divisive – Read More-
France has a new president today. Emmanuel Macron, the youngest leader since Napoleon Bonaparte. How’d that one work out?? I wonder how, in future years, history will remember Macron. Whether as a great leader or just reduced to a psychological ‘complex’ like the previous young geezer. I hope the former, I like Macron. He’s ‘different’ – Read More-
If the Guardian says ‘this is a blog’ and the Times says ‘this is a blog’ and even the Daily Mail says ‘this is a BLOG!!!!!’, then it probably is a blog. Unless you’re a supporter of Jeremy Corbyn, in which case; firstly, you need psychological help, and secondly, the press are involved in a – Read More-
You know when you walk into a restaurant and they have those photos on the wall of the owner, normally some schmaltzy old Italian or Jewish guy with a big cigar and fat belly, shaking hands with the rich and the famous who have dined there. The ones who didn’t later sue for infectious diseases. – Read More-
