I’m over it. We’re over it. Everyone’s over Spurs ‘temporary’ run of bad form, resulting in THE WEEK OF HELLLLL!!!!!, for all concerned, but was washed away like a nasty stain with yesterday’s victory at Villa Park. Well, perhaps a bit more than a mere stain, more… more… a FULL FACE TATOO, so deep runneth – Read More-
Anyone reading this who is over 35 years old may remember a weird, archaic and historical problem. Cars breaking down. Remember? Like, just ‘die’ on the motorway? Fan-belt snapped on the A23 just outside Brighton at 2am. Fan belts only ever broke on the A23 (because no-one lives within 50 miles of its entire length) – Read More-
The narrative of this ‘orrible pandemic has been one of numbers. As every day we learn of the number of ‘new cases’, of ‘deaths’, ‘hospitalisations’ and now vaccinations (not applicable in Europe). With cumulative totals added in most cases too, to compliment the rolling averages and daily snapshots. Numbers. And of course, their partner in – Read More-
I’m rather concerned. About clottage. Blood clottage, to be specific. In Europeans. Because issues have been raised… ‘over there’ about a problem with the good, British, UK, Oxford-Astrazeneca vaccine, which is the fish’n’chips of covid vaccines. It is the veritable roast beef and Yorkshire pudding of drugs. Solid, consistent and representative of all things Britain. – Read More-
Ok, let’s just have a quick re-cap. Sarah Everard gets abducted and murdered; women from all over the country speak out about acts of violence and harassment against them; Sarah’s murderer turns out to be a policeman; Sarah becomes an icon, a catalyst for society to change its behaviour towards women totally, so they don’t – Read More-
A UPS dude called into work yesterday with a package from France. One of my regular suppliers. And indeed one of our regular UPS dudes. “Here’s your package” he proclaimed, so fluently that I reckon he’s said that before. But his little bleeper wouldn’t bleep the bar code, despite frequent attempts, a modern-day, first-world tragedy! – Read More-
Houston, we have a problem! Though for ‘Houston’, read ‘society’ and it’ll be more accurate. Because last night on Question Time a woman asked a brilliant question. In the light of the terrible abduction and murder of Sarah Everard in South London there’s been a surprising (in its extent and magnitude) outpouring of ‘I was – Read More-
They’re closing Buckingham Palace. The entire Royal Family is being suspended from duty with immediate effect following the recent allegations of racism, lack of care and being generally ‘as woke as a sleeping thing’. Following mass protests by Jeremy Corbyn, Diane Abbott and another person even less significant than those 4 (Abbott’s calculation), the government – Read More-
Spurs won last night. I was there. In the crowd. Well, it felt like it. I watched it with Lila’s daddy. Which, by today’s standards, is a big crowd. So we turned off the ‘artificial, simulated crowd-noise bollocks’ and made our own noise. Though not waking the babes, obvs. And before you start calling the – Read More-
Just the day before she was scheduled to appear with Oprah Winfrey, Meghan agreed to an interview with andysglasses.com as a special, exclusive (except for Oprah, obvs) online, zoom-skype type face-time gig with me. Because like her I represent an ethnic minority, but unlike Oprah, who arguably represents one too, I’m not worth 2 billion – Read More-
