This was, results-wise, the almost perfect weekend. The ‘almost’ bit was Chelsea’s undeserved win at Stoke. ‘Undeserved’ purely on moral grounds. If ever you needed proof that there is no God, just look at the top of the league table. The very top, obviously. God starts at 2nd place. In all His magnificence. And we – Read More-
So we came home from the movies last night, made a cup of tea, sat down with the papers and, although really disappointed (Mel) that Match of the Day was over, we found a rockumentary on Neil Sedaka. Who I never really liked, too clean, too creepy, too neat, too Jewish (yes, indeed you can – Read More-
Without a doubt, my favourite ex-Imperial Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan is David Duke. Mainly because he must be colour blind and didn’t realise that the wig he bought was the totally wrong colour and doesn’t match his beard. But also because he’s just soooooo nasty.

We’re having a baby. As in ‘the family’. Daughter Natalie is about 39 weeks pregnant and growing and we’re in deep ‘preparation’ mode. I do my deep breathing exercises every day and have a bag packed and ready. Even though I’m going nowhere. But its what you do. What you also do is get ‘stuff’. – Read More-
That filthy Scottish bastard who slam-dunked Elliot Daly on the ground after 90 seconds of yesterday’s match at Twickenham with a horrible, illegal and potentially neck-breaking ‘tip tackle’ was given a yellow card. 10 minutes in the ‘sin bin’.
