End game…

It’s over. Again. Covid? History. Not one single person died yesterday from Covid in the whole of England! Which is brilliant! Unfortunately, 14 died from ‘Covid Boredom’ a disease which attacks the brain during repeated pandemic statistical information broadcasts. 34 died in crashes on their way to have Covid tests and three more passed away – Read More-

Niceness…

‘Nice’ is possibly the most horrible word in the English language. ‘Bollocks’ is in most cases a much nicer (nooooo) word, though obviously with a different meaning. Yet sometimes I just think that so many people act in ways of such arseholish dickheadedness that really, what we need is more niceness. More tolerance. Understanding. Empathy. – Read More-

Political landscape…

We have a vast political landscape in this fine, democratic nation. And its blue. There’s hundreds of other colours in the palette, but they don’t count. Don’t contribute. Don’t reckon into the equation. Which currently reads: Boris 1, everyone else didn’t. It is remarkable that they’re now talking about a Conservative government with greater longevity – Read More-

Picture speaks…

… a thousand words. But in this case, David Mellor’s headline in the Mail on Sunday uses fewer than a thousand words to… errrr… to… to deconstruct our esteemed Mayor of all London Town. Some may feel this assessment a little harsh. Not me. Others may find it cruel and heartless. Not me. More than – Read More-

Football…

I like football. Well, I used to. It was easy. You just went and watched your team on Saturday and they’d win or sometimes not and then you’d watch Match of the Day and The Big Match to see how all the other teams did so you could abuse your friends properly on Monday. Then – Read More-

Gardener’s world…

Today I’m going to give you the benefit of some tips for having a beautiful garden. Gardening tip number 1: don’t do it. It’s dull, laborious, back-breaking and it’ll all look exactly the same when you’ve finished, 7 hours and 35 Ibuprofen later. So get a gardener, marry a gardener, or move to a flat. – Read More-

Just suppose…

It’s not easy spending your life gorgeously. In fact it is downright difficult and most of the time, filled with discomfort and embarrassment. Because being blessed with the kind of face which Michelangelo would have sculpted, the body of an Adonis, a six-pack riding proudly where, if there were any kind of God, a great, – Read More-

Normally…

Covid? We’re over it. As a nation. Vaccinated, drinking ‘again’, restaurants open, a bit too ‘open’ for some who don’t wish to freeze, along with their dinner, at a table by the side of the M1 as the juggernauts go screaming by, and life is resuming. We’re still wearing masks. Some of the time. I – Read More-

Clever boy…

Boris Johnson stood by Dominic Cummings for a long time. Defended him. Supported him. Even after Dom had taken a road trip with his family whilst having Covid and having overseen the ban on travel for the entire nation, did Boris, like Tammy Wynette before him, stand by his man. On the grounds that Dominic – Read More-

Power corrupts…

Honestly, don’t I have enough to worry about? Jesus, my shoulder’s for shit, we’re in month 14 of the worst thing ever to become a proper ‘thing’, we’ve just averted the worst crisis that football has ever faced, Joey broke our lovingly constructed kit car and the lawn needs mowing. I mean, really! So I – Read More-
