murderous cars…

I read this headline this morning and immediately thought: I totally believe that. And I reckon everyone who drives electric, to save the planet, like me, well, like Mel, would totally believe that such a claim is true. ‘The car did it!’ Because EVs have, quite literally, a mind of their own. You think you’ve – Read More-

‘ammers…

All I can say is: thank God for the ‘ammers. Because otherwise I’d have absolutely nothing at all to be happy about in the entire world of football. Yet those ‘chirpy cockneys’ put a smile on my face with every game they lose, and every move they make downwards in the table. I think when – Read More-

Saturday job…

The youth of today… Well, let’s face it, they’re fucked. If AI doesn’t get them, they’ve suffered covid and are all addicted to ‘devices’. Most are more ‘hardware’ than human. But apparently the problem is because they don’t take ‘Saturday jobs’. So they get no experience of the discipline and basic interactional skills which work – Read More-

Power station…

The joys of electric cars. We took Mel’s to Gatwick because it’s big enough. Mine is functionally useless. That’s not what it’s for. But heh, even with the manufacturers blocking the charge capacity to 80% about a year ago (don’t worry, I’m on it. Mis-selling, innit) we left home with ‘280 miles’ on the car. – Read More-

Another shit-storm…

“British Airways would like to apologise to travellers on flight BA666 (all BA flights now carry the devil’s number) for the 2 hour, possibly 3 hour, maybe more, delay. This is due to a shitstorm over Gatwick/Heathrow/City. We hope this will not inconvenience you too much. Don’t think of complaining, you’ll be wasting your breath. – Read More-

With accents of vanilla…

I’d just like to reaffirm that I make no judgments. As sentence with similar usage as MPs saying ‘let me make this perfectly clear’ telling you they’re going to avoid answering in as many ways as possible. And in this particular instance, I’m making no judgments about accents. Regional accents. The reason for which I – Read More-

Lack of honour…

I just can’t understand how, for the 57th consecutive year, I’ve missed out in the New Year’s honours list. It just makes no sense whatsoever. I mean, just look at me, ffs, I’m worth a CBE just for being gorgeous. But when you take into consideration all my wonderful benevolence and my vital assistance to – Read More-

Winners and losers…

Before I get started on the football, in which I intend to focus on every single second of Spurs remarkable and outstanding victory at Crystal Palace, I just want to offer my words of support and…. in fact, adoration, for Alaa Abdel Fattah, and welcome him back to HIS home nation. Where he belongs. Among – Read More-

Tenerife…

So what’s Tenerife like? Well… it was formed in 2600 BC when a volcano erupted under the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Morocco. The volcano’s name was ‘Nigel’ and it was quite big. Because the eruption also caused a few other Canary Islands to form, possibly a bit of the west coast of Morocco – Read More-

Holidays…

Why do we take holidays? Well, it’s a complex question. We take holidays to rest. To relax. To adhere to the ‘change is good as a rest’ maxim, maybe to get some sunshine at a time when we don’t got none at home, and maybe because we’re just fucking exhausted, overworked, and knackered out. So – Read More-
