Statement…

A statement on behalf of the owner and directors of Manchester City football club, via 17 partners of 19 different companies of the world’s most aggressive legal Rottweilers. May it please God as the crescent moon lights the hearts in the Persian Gulf, without prejudice. It has been stated by those motherless sons-of-whores (no contradiction – Read More-

Love hate…

Ever heard of a ‘non-crime hate incident’? The police record them against you if you’ve… well if… when you… ‘Non-crime hate incident’ is bollocks. Total and utter bollocks. It means you’ve said something not even nasty, just perhaps funny, silly or mildly insulting, yet in no way inciting to violence or even a mere threat. – Read More-

Yid army…

Sometimes its just nice to have validation. Sometimes you do things and you ‘just don’t care’, and others may be offended, but that’s life. Most of what I do or say will offend someone, I just hope that someone is the person I’m talking to or I’m not doing my job. Because offence is just – Read More-

How fast…

So HS2 is going ahead. I would say ‘full steam’ but that’s so inappropriate, so 1874, so… downright wrong! Even though steam itself is clean and carbon-free, the coal used to produce that steam was a whole other kettle of pollution-ness. Those old choo-choo-puffers never spewed ‘steam’ out of their chimneys but DEATH! Thus the – Read More-

And the Oscar went to…

Korea. And deservedly so? Is Parasite as good as 1917? Better than Once Upon a Time in Hollywood? A greater work than Joker? Who cares. It’s quite brilliant. And unusual in that it comes from a different culture, ie Korea rather than Hollywood, and it represents its culture, the good and the bad. Which is – Read More-

Korea move…

It all started with a Samsung. As these things so often do (?) At some point I decided that I didn’t need an iPhone and acquired (cos you don’t really ‘buy’ them, in any meaningful sense) my first Samsung. I liked it. More importantly, Mel could use it. Like, most of it, without too much – Read More-

Criterion shift…

Tennis was abandoned this morning, before it started. Even though it was dry; the main and usually sole criteria for tennis playage round here, the winds were so strong that, although not totally ‘unplayable’, reduces playable to miserable. Cos balls swirling round is horrible and frustrating. And all because of storm Ciara. Why they had – Read More-

And the Oscar goes to…

… The white geezer. Same as always. They gave one to Sidney Poitier in about 1975 and that was enough ‘diversity’ for any distinguished organisation, surely? What should they do? Give an Oscar to Philip Schofield just to keep numbers up? Would it be better if some of the nominees (all white) turn up in – Read More-

Tut tut…

King Tut has always had a special place in our hearts. His heart was removed and buried near him a little box with his organs and a few other ‘bits and pieces’. It was the Egyptian way. But King Tutankhamen wasn’t like the BEST EVER pharaoh, nor the tallest, sexiest, ugliest, meanest, most successful or – Read More-

Intriguing…

So there’s a BA flight from New York. Guy pops into the bathroom before take off to… well, whatever. Looks at the sink area (4 inches x 3, as they always are) and sees hand-wash, sanitiser, hand cream, 2 passports and a Glock 17 automatic pistol. Looks at the passports (I’d have fired the gun, – Read More-
