London is hotter than the fires of hell. It’s official. Hell burned (Dante et al, 1256) at 106 degrees of Fahrenheits, and today it is 108. In between they invented Celciuses but they just confuse the issue. It’s so hot here that they reckon the roads will melt and the railway lines will buckle. Policemen – Read More-
Well it finally happened. The new man for the job arrived. All the fuss, all the waiting, all the expectation and now… Tanguy Ndombele plays for Spurs. Our only signing in nearly 2 years. And he came on last Sunday when we played a friendly in Singapore against Juventus. They of the Christiano Ronaldo fame. – Read More-
I’ve always been a bit ‘sporty’. I like playing games and if a bat and/or ball are involved then so much the better. Unless its a golf bat, then you can keep it and I’ll go watch a box-set. And as a working definition of ‘sport’, if you don’t end up with sweaty bollocks then – Read More-
We’re on the verge of war. It’s just a matter of days. Boots on the ground. Full military… whatever. Total invasion syndrome. We did Iraq. We sorted Afghanistan, we dabbled in Syria and so logically as well as geographically, we need to fight the Iranians just so we can cross off that whole sector of – Read More-

I love a happy ending. Especially when its a totally undeserved, unwarranted, ridiculously happy ending that is as surprising as it is a testament to corporate stupidity. We applied for a new life assurance. In case we want to murder each other. Double Indemnity kind’a deal. With Zurich Life. They wanted to send round medical – Read More-
Trump’s latest series of tweets telling four Americans to ‘go back where they came from’ is a wonderful thing. It’s a thing of the past. A thing of ignorance and intolerance. And of course, as is everything ‘he’ does, it is very divisive. What it isn’t is a simple thing. No mere stupid, off the – Read More-
When you ride a bike you feel free. With the wind. Ecologically ‘on-message’. Pollution free. You are holier than all those thous in their toxic, polluting, climate-changing cars, vans, buses and aeroplanes. But when you’re in a car, those same bikes are a pest. They are insects to be trodden on. They are IN THE – Read More-
What do you keep in your shoes? Ok, your feet. That’s generally the case. But what about when you pack for a trip? Do you ‘fill’ your shoes, as I do? Or do you leave them empty just in case a group of uniformed security border controllers mistake a bottle of baby powder (yeah! Why – Read More-
Ok, these things are the ones that will kill you: smoking, obesity and… Yes, there’s a new ‘social killer’ on the block and its not, like, ‘buses stepped in front of’ or ‘people with knives’ or even ‘slow death by Brexit’.
