So you come to Tenerife to ‘get away from it all’. Even though there is really not a lot of ‘all’ to be getting away from at this time of year. The newspapers, after 14 weeks of unblinking ‘pre-Christmas’, got over the anniversary of Christ’s birth as it started because there was no more advertising – Read More-
I’m in Tenerife. Its hot. Job done. Mrs C needs an infusion of ultra violet in the winter, there’s probably nowhere nearer than the Canary Islands to achieve that aim. They call it ‘Spain’. But it’s not. Its Africa. Just to the west of the southern end of Morocco, where it meets Western Sahara. Florida – Read More-
We need to talk about Matt Gaetz. The American former Senator who left the House of Representatives to become Trump’s next Attorney General but was vetoed by his own party on the grounds of “you ‘avin a larf, or WHAT??” Because, other than Donald Trump himself, Matt Gaetz is possibly the most inappropriate man to – Read More-
Just one more question, to the neutrals it is aimed, to check if our levels of fun are being adequately sustained: WAS THAT FUCKING ENTERTAINING ENOUGH FOR YOU??? or was our ‘goals conceded’ level still a bit too few? They came from the North, in fact from Liverpool Where shoplifters abound and no-one goes to – Read More-
I went out for dinner last night. Oh wow, did you, Andy, I’ll alert the fucking media… No, I did. Round to friends. Not just any friends but to Mr & Mrs My Favourite Gooner in the World, friends.

After the required length of time for refusals, denials and ‘what, you want li’l ole ME to do that???’s, the Faragist – Read More-
You see, being a Spurs fan means you are committed, totally and absolutely, to ‘entertainment’. Football is not for ‘winning’ in any normal sense, its there to ‘entertain the masses’. To provide neutral fans with ‘a match to remember’. Even if Spurs fans remember it even longer, until they finish therapy. I’m going to have – Read More-
What are you doing on Christmas Day? Eating turkey? Watching re-runs of a Queen’s Speech? Fun with the family? Well why not do the decent thing and invite Prince Andrew round as well? You’re supposed to find lonely, unloved people, who would otherwise be all alone, watching The Morecombe and Wise Christmas Special, eating a – Read More-
Ok, I’m over this government, they’ve done nothing! Nothing worth having, that is. They’ve put tax up, reduced growth, knackered the Christmas economy, fucked up the workforce, re-funded Hamas (ok, UNWRA, same difference), caved into the unions and negotiated with a terrorist state (Syria). So we’re going to get rid of them. Furthermore, Spurs are – Read More-
