coming to town…

I’m greatly concerned. About Christmas. And how it will impact on ‘the spread of the virus’, whilst we’re waiting for the vaccines to finalise. Whatever Boris says or doesn’t say, about the festive festivities, folks will do what they choose. Which, in the most part, will be Christmas Normal. But that’s not my worry. I’m – Read More-

Tiers of a clown…

Ok, so here’s the new, new, NEW rules. Lockdown ends on 2nd December and that IS ENTRENCHED IN LAW!!! And you’ll know Lockdown’s over because 4 shops will open. One in Newcastle, two in Birmingham and one in Berwick-upon-Tweed. Pubs and restaurants will open once more, at midnight, then those in Tier 3 zones (to – Read More-

Statistics…

You don’t need to have read many of my little notelets to appreciate that I hold the entire statistical world, industry, profession, whatever vaulted title you wish to bestow upon it, in total and absolute fucking contempt. It’s all bollocks. Furthermore it is very biased bollocks. And very prejudicial, which is its purpose. To prejudice – Read More-

B done with you…

Have you noticed how many ‘b-words’ are in the papers at the moment? There’s Boris and Brexit, we’ve had those for a while now. To which we must add ‘bullying’ and ‘bitch’ in honour of Priti Patel, backstabbing and Boronavirus. Bovid 19. When did all these Bs come to prominence? I didn’t vote for them. – Read More-

Greener and greener…

Britain has announced that by 2030 no more petrol or diesel cars will be registered. Only ‘lectric, like the Renault Zoe, pedal, like Fred Flintstone’s car, or… or… other good ways of powering cars. Hydrogen maybe. Or sand. Norway is doing it by 2025 because they’re a small, rich country full of very compliant blond – Read More-

Damned if ya do…

So what do we do about old people? Who seem to be the major losers in the great Covid cull of 2020 (soon to be extended, by popular demand!!) Ok, there are benefits here because old people are, generally, a disproportionate drain on national resources. They need more power to heat up. They take pensions. – Read More-

Beneath me…

I’d just like to stay with the televisual theme for a little while, which is appropriate as THERE IS NOTHING ELSE WE’RE ALLOWED TO DO without risking arrest. And its almost a case in point, having referred to the addictive nature of even the most banal, trite, trivial, mindless and almost brain-dead of tv offerings. – Read More-

Televisual…

I’m not the world’s biggest tv watcher, (he says with the air of intellectual superiority alway implied in such a claim.) I’m too busy with further education, reading book things, learning encyclopediae and generally being a swotty, geeky, creepy git. I could be a tv watcher of premier league quality, but there’s too much ‘shit’ – Read More-

Its over…

Phew, what a relief, the pandemic’s over. Finished. Beaten by medical science. A couple of German Turks, or Turkish Germans (think: Mezut Ozil in a white coat) who run Biontech have, with a little help from Pfizer, made a vaccine which is ‘90%’ effective against Coronavirus. To put that in perspective, Joe Biden is 90% – Read More-
