Comin home…

Mel has left me! She’s gone! It had to happen I suppose. She’s lived with a virtual God for 38 years, it gets a bit much. All that awe. Ok, she’s gone to Dubrovnik with her sister for the weekend, but it’s basically the same thing. I have to do things. Which I don’t really – Read More-

New broom…

We can now enjoy at least 5 years of stability, growth and low taxes under the leadership of Sir Kier Starmer. Unless either, he changes his mind about any of those 3 things, and he has very consistent history of doing just that, or that the Unions, who fund his party, get pissed off with – Read More-

Reach out…

I hate it when anyone ‘reaches out’ to me. Not in the Four Tops sense but in the contemporary use and abuse of that term. More Freddie Kruger coming out the lake, arms outstretched, than Motown hugging. When you get the phone calls from someone ‘reaching out’, it’s generally going to cost you money. But – Read More-

manifestation…

I’ve decided to bow to the will of the people and stand for Prime Minister!!! Yes, your pleading and begging, crying on my doorstep, lobbying my support team (Joey) and imploring me to become the national saviour I’ve always been destined to become, has made me decide to stand tomorrow. But, like, just ‘straight to – Read More-

I’m not in love…

In my late teens and early 20s I would go to at least one ‘gig’ every weekend. We’d look through Time Out and they’d list every possible musical ‘event’ going on in every pub, club, back garden and garage across all of Greater London. And you could always get in. No booking required. We saw – Read More-

its coming home!!!

I’m starting to believe! It could happen!! It’s coming home!!! Though, realistically, how could it be ‘home’ for a trophy that’s never even visited here? Ok, its coming to OUR home, but the implication is that its going where it belongs. And all trophies belong here. Somewhere near Golders Green. So I’m believing, but not – Read More-

Trumpish…

I’ll tell you how bad Joe Biden is. He makes Donald Trump look like a man in control of all his faculties. That’s how bad Mr President is today. By November he’ll be worse. And in almost 5 years time, at the end of his 2nd term, should he win it, he’ll be losing the – Read More-

Top’a da league…

Last night the England football team did us all proud. Even for those football fans who, like me, don’t really give two shits what happens in the Euros. But England won their group. Which is brilliant. Yet the press is being really unfair about it. Criticising their play, accusing them of lacking ambition, neither entertaining – Read More-

the klutz…

People assume, when they see me, that I’m this, pretty perfect physical specimen, neat, compact, tidy kind’a guy, fully in control of his limbs and extremities. Unfortunately this is not strictly the case as I’ve always had the pretty unfailing ability, as my dear mother used to say, to ‘fall over a blade of grass’. – Read More-

Sensational…

So let’s get it straight. What Farage actually said. Which was that Russia was provoked into attacking Ukraine by the ever eastward extensions of the EU and of NATO. You can disagree with that. But only if you’re a moron, an imbecile, any politician trying to score pathetic moral high ground points or anyone else – Read More-
