Do you have a mobile phone? Just wondered. I used to have one. Then I replaced it with a mobile Lila-photo-storage-facility. Its much better. There’s no room for apps, text messages, phone numbers, just photos. Only of Lila. Except a few that sneak in of Harry Kane or even Donald Trump when someone says something – Read More-
Churchill once described Russia as ‘a riddle wrapped in mystery inside an enigma’. I thought he was talking about China. Googled it to find the quote and learned it was Russia. Bummer. Churchill also once famously retorted to a woman at a dinner party when she said to him ‘Sir, you are drunk!’, by saying – Read More-
That vile place, Piccadilly Circus, is famous for its billboards. Always has been. Because 23 million tourists mill around there all day every day and night, you can’t actually get in there now if you’re a uk passport holder. Sorry, them’s the rules. But we don’t wish to go there anyway, its horrible. They can – Read More-
What is athletics? What constitutes a ‘sporting activity’. There are probably clearly defined parameters, but who can be bothered with all that. So generally, what happens in the Olympics decides what are ‘sports’.

Not, like, on tv, no, bloody savages round here wouldn’t be so bloody cooperative as to do that, would they??? – Read More-
We’re at the Dead Sea. The lowest point in the world. That’s relative to sea level. If it was the lowest point from a moral standpoint then I’d be in Las Vegas. But I’m not, I’m here in the Holy Land looking at the amazing salt lake in the middle of a desert. It was – Read More-
Ok, so I haven’t written to you for a few days, didn’t phone, never called… I’M ON ‘OLLLIDAY!!! ‘AVIN’ A REST!!!! ISS’ALLOWED!!! Right, so having used up my years’ supply of exclamation marks in one (poorly constructed, verbless, grammatically evil) sentence, I’ll tell you why. Because I’m ‘busy’. Really busy. Not in the normal sense – Read More-
Israel is a confusing and unpredictable place. That’s why its in the middle east. Because it spans the civility and politeness of Europe (errrr… Bosnia, Catalonia, Spanish Civil War, The War to end all Wars, and the one that followed it…), yeah, civilised. And the far east, those savage orientals who murder with swords, eat – Read More-
Well did’ja hear? Americans are looking at gun regulations! Not just Americans, but even… Republicans!!! And not even just, kind’a ‘normal’ republicans but even the NRA!!! The all-powerful National Rifle Association, mouthpiece of right wing, second amendment, right to bear arms obsessives have actually said that something needs to be done, in the wake of – Read More-
