Hope springs infernal…

As the world prays for Donald Trump and his deliverance from the dreaded disease that he actually didn’t even believe in until last Tuesday, we need, as always with the world’s slipperiest dickhead, to question a few ‘facts’. Well, ‘facts’ can only get you so far, and they’re always questionable anyway when coming out of – Read More-

Supremely…

Lila laughed at the idea that she was ‘a white girl’. She’s not white. She’s pink. If only the whole world saw such issues through the prism of 3 (and a half) year old literalism and without the baggage of nuance and context and (mainly bad) experience. But then Prince Harry would have nothing to – Read More-

When ya gotta go…

Before I move onto to the important matters occurring at White Hart Lane yesterday evening, I wish to take a moment to explain to you the latest rules regarding the new, non-lockdown-but-not-far-from-it, status in some-but-not-all areas, with possible amendments to the rules of adjacent towns and cities. Not forgetting the countryside and the inhabitants thereof. – Read More-

Food…

I was looking at the Sunday magazines the other day. Probably Sunday. And I’m always drawn to images of food. And the photos all look fab, but then you read the recipes and I can’t help thinking that there is a fundamental issue with the whole genre. That there are only so many foods and – Read More-

Go marching on…

Spurs played 3 matches in a week. All played ‘away’ from home, if such a thing has any significance with the partisan effect being obviously absent. And all won. One of the 3 teams we played I’d even heard of previously. Southampton. The other two, played in all the glory and splendour of the Europa – Read More-

I have just acquired a pair of… hearing aids!!! Yeah, I know, shoot me now, Dignitas time, its all gone to shit. I am OLD. But hearing – Read More-

on the beaches…

Like Churchill before him, Boris Johnson is inspiring the entire nation, every man, woman, person, object, thing with multiple bits, undecideds, crossovers, gender fluids and any group I may have inadvertently missed, to fight, fight fight!! this horrible pandemic. We are all being encouraged to stand up, get battle ready, bare arms, join together (no – Read More-

Good and bad…

I think HSBC should be praised for the 2 trillion (!!!) pounds worth of money laundering they’re responsible for over a 17 year period. It shows ingenuity, creativity, inspiration verging on desperation. They not only did this activity for companies they suspected of being ‘a bit dodgy’, but carried on even when assured that assumed – Read More-

Oh emm jeeeee…

Gareth Bale arrived in the country on Friday. 2 days later Spurs rolled over Southampton at St Mary’s, 5-2. I mean… I mean… I mean that’s a big score. A resounding score. A proper score. The score of dominance, the score of class, the score of… top 4 contenders! If not the league itself, if – Read More-

What crisis…

In today’s big match, the final result was: Covid 1, God didn’t. Because its Rosh Hashannah, the holiest day of the entire… week? month? Year? Whatever, its fucking holy, is what it is. And as the Jewish year is up to 5781 (we started so long before anyone else, Christians didn’t learn how to count – Read More-
