I love a food fad. But I love chocolate more. And the best chocolate of all comes from Easter Eggs. I don’t know why, even after a concerted, concentrated, totally committed, 60 year study. And its a very scientific study too. Very controlled, all variables monitored, contingencies allowed for, statistics analysed minutely. This is what – Read More-
We’re leaving ‘Europe’. An island once more, we shall be. Rule Britannia. Lock the doors, shore up the… errr… shores and leave us the fuck alone!!!! Except when it comes to trade, of course. Then we need to peddle our baubles and trinkets to other countries. Oh, and fruit picking, potato harvesting, we like to – Read More-
The problem is mainly that Spurs, currently, are very very good. So much so that my confidence raised more than it perhaps should We’ve beaten them all, the good and the bad, particularly at the Lane where they’ve all left rather sad But this was Arsenal, this was not the norm, upon this match stood – Read More-
Do you ever watch Jules Holland? You should do. Its the safe way to keep up with music. Safe because Jules is pretty old and therefore shares my value system when it comes to what sounds good. He’s also funny, likeable, rather charming and the most brilliant pianist of his, or many other generations. And – Read More-
The problem with religions is that the more obsessive they are, the more preachy, the more holier-than-thou, the more… basically, up their own arses, that they are, the more stupid it all seems when it goes wrong. When I see, on a tube train, f’rsinstance, a ‘black hat’ Jewish dude, all beard and dangling bits – Read More-
I was more worried about last night’s match than anything. More than North Korean nuclear threats, more than Trump’s need of subtlety in his life, more than Jeremy Corbyn becoming Prime Minister. Because ‘doing a Spurs’ is all about collapsing. All about showing promise and glory up to a point, only to see the carpet – Read More-
So Tim Fallon, leader of the Liberal Democrats, was finally nailed down regarding his dilemma. He’s ‘pro-gay’ and yet has repeatedly refused to answer the question as to whether gay sex is a ‘sin’. According to his ‘devout’ views. And yesterday he said it wasn’t. Bollox to God, bollox to the bible, he’s happy with – Read More-
Although the proper ‘election campaigning’ can’t start until the Parliamentary session is officially ended, it does kind’a look like its begun already, with all the big players, and Jeremy Corbyn, even Paul Nuttall, getting out and about and… well, basically, talking bollocks all over the country. Theresa May exudes confidence. She’s like the headmistress of – Read More-
I missed a lot yesterday. Running round like a blue-arsed fly, I believe the expression to be. Though I’ve never seen a fly with blue arse myself, that doesn’t mean they don’t exist somewhere. Maybe its a regular, black-arsed fly that is moving so fast away from you that it is experiencing ‘blue-shift’, like planets – Read More-
What do you do when you meet your God? I don’t mean… ‘Him’, or ‘Her’, perhaps, up there all bearded and omnipotent and omniscient, but your real, honest-to-goodness heroes? What do you say to them that expresses how you feel but doesn’t leave you looking like a screaming Beatles fan in 1964, throwing your underwear – Read More-
