I’d like to make it very clear (politician-speak for ‘what this lacks in clarity, it makes up for in higher volume’) that we, the Conservative Government, are the ‘party of low taxation’. Which is why I am proposing this budget today. In which, we shall tax every many, woman, child, worker, pensioner, retiree, unemployed person, – Read More-
Rishi Sunak, out latest Prime Minister, still in the job for more than 3 weeks now, is working hard. Do you think its easy hanging out in a tropical paradise with a ‘package’ which totally redefines ‘all-inclusive’? Do you think wearing Hawaiian shirts is easy? Are you under some illusion that hanging out with world – Read More-
If you look closely at this picture of our Joey, you might notice, on the left side of his forehead, a bunch of steri-strips. The things you use to close a wound. Hold it together. And thus really could have been invented for little Jo-jo. We were eating dinner, Friday night, usual, noisy, bit’a chicken, – Read More-
…its getting; football’s getting lost… So we had a full fixture list this weekend. Loads’a games, loads’a goals, loads’a… stuff, bit of VAR (inevitably), few ructions, plenty of excitement (Spurs), bit of boring (Arsenal), massive underdogging (Brentford), some ‘tragic’ losses, (Man City, Chelsea), several managers elevated to ‘tightrope’ status (Frankie Lampard, Graham Potter) and all – Read More-
I never really ‘got’ reality tv. It started with ‘Big Brother’ in which you watch a bunch of sub-normal morons talking about total rubbish for hours on end. For some reason, that never pushed my buttons. Other than the ‘channel change’ ones. Then they evolved into talent shows of various types, all equally horrible, and – Read More-
Are some Americans finally waking up to the reality the rest of the world has known for decades? Can they really have had a collective ‘eureka moment’ to realise what is an otherwise universally known fact? That Donald Trump is actually not a man you would want in control of your country. You wouldn’t want – Read More-
So I had a cough. And that rapidly developed into full-blown man-flu, which is, as all men know, if not exactly ‘deadly serious’, at least ‘fucking horrible’ and the cause of much whingeing and complaining and demands for sympathy. Since then nothing’s really changed. Still feel shit, bunged up, achy and coughing, especially at night. – Read More-
Do you remember when Spurs were 3rd in the league? Those happy, heady days when our position flattered to deceive. Well, I like flattery. And I’m a big fan of deception. Because now, having ‘plummeted’ down the table after yesterday’s debacle, I’m having to ask myself “are we EVEN worthy of 4th place???” This made – Read More-
I watched an event on the News the other night. Bunch’a American… mid-westerners? Southerners? You know, the not very bright ones, and they were hailing Jesus and praising the Lord and there were preachers shouting about the Devil and salvation and, my favourite bit, when people start feinting all over the place because Jesus has – Read More-
It’s happened. I developed a cough. The thing that makes you the undisputed #1 favourite with fellow tube travellers. A lovely, deep, chesty, phlegmy cough. If I had a bag of masks with me, I could’a made a killin’. Then a runny nose and a bit of sneezing. Yesterday I just felt like shit. Tired. – Read More-
