Football…

I like football. Well, I used to. It was easy. You just went and watched your team on Saturday and they’d win or sometimes not and then you’d watch Match of the Day and The Big Match to see how all the other teams did so you could abuse your friends properly on Monday. Then – Read More-

Gardener’s world…

Today I’m going to give you the benefit of some tips for having a beautiful garden. Gardening tip number 1: don’t do it.

Normally…

Covid? We’re over it. As a nation. Vaccinated, drinking ‘again’, restaurants open, a bit too ‘open’ for some who don’t wish to freeze, along with their dinner, at a table by the side of the M1 as the juggernauts go screaming by, and life is resuming. We’re still wearing masks. Some of the time. I – Read More-

Clever boy…

Boris Johnson stood by Dominic Cummings for a long time. Defended him. Supported him. Even after Dom had taken a road trip with his family whilst having Covid and having overseen the ban on travel for the entire nation, did Boris, like Tammy Wynette before him, stand by his man. On the grounds that Dominic – Read More-

Power corrupts…

Honestly, don’t I have enough to worry about? Jesus, my shoulder’s for shit, we’re in month 14 of the worst thing ever to become a proper ‘thing’, we’ve just averted the worst crisis that football has ever faced, Joey broke our lovingly constructed kit car and the lawn needs mowing. I mean, really! So I – Read More-

It’s over…

Ok, that’s the European Super League done with then. Let’s get back to work. But, like WTF?

The End…

Football died yesterday. All of it. The whole game. Worldwide. A greater tragedy than the pandemic, a bigger disaster than the Titanic, a more devastating tragedy than Krakatoa and Pompeii combined. Because yesterday they started… The European Super League!!! It even has its own acronym. You ready? It’s the ESL. And that’s impressive that they – Read More-
