And when asked, say, about the ‘best way to get to Yorkshire’, I’ll answer; DON’T!!!!!! For fuck sake just stay home. Spring clean. Clip the budgie’s claws. Shred last year’s bank statements.

Due to the latest in a long line of what the medical world terms: shoulder fuckage, I haven’t been allowed to resume my tennis habit. Which is a bummer. I love my tennis. Its my ‘thing’. I don’t gym (I’d rather grow obese gracelessly, with a chocolate eclair in each hand), I don’t swim, I – Read More-
If ever any dress was worth £4million it was that one. I’m not saying that’s what I’d spend 4 mil that I don’t have on, that would be a Veyron, a pro-fuel dragster (for communting), a new shoulder, one that works properly, a 1970 Dodge Charger and a bottle of face cream for Mel. She – Read More-
Michael Palin’s Monty Python accountant wanted to be a ‘lion-tamer’. The glamour, the danger, the spotlights, ahhhhhh.

“Chief branded a racist, fascist, misogynist”, ran the top of the page in the Times. Oh, they’re talking about Trump again. But no, this was Steve Bannon, Trump’s newly appointed chief strategist.

So the movie ‘Arrive’ had to be seen, and was. Job done. Food for thought. And without ‘spoiling’ it, its about aliens arriving from another planet.

The synonym for which is ‘dim’ but that’s not where I’m going. I have – Read More-
America is up in arms. Some bastards voted in a moronic, egotistical, racist, misogynist orange thing to be their next president. Who’d’a thought? So they’re protesting, rioting, last night in Portland, Oregon, there was even a shooting. 3,000 miles away from Trump in New York.
