A young boy, a teenager really, was arrested yesterday at an airport after being found to have become radicalised by the evil preachings found on his computer. The poisoned ideology, the quest for world domination, the turning of innocent views distorted for wicked aims. The arrest, at Glasgow airport, was the longest in an increasing – Read More-
Do you remember, as a kid, (I hope), getting a ‘compendium of games’? It was a normal board-game sized box but inside were the slimmed down versions of a dozen different games. Ludo, scrabble, chess, draughts, snakes’n’ladders, loads of games, all kind’a wrapped up together to save space and time and create so many options? – Read More-
Its the foundation stone of commerce. Pay as little as you can for something, sell it for as much as possible. Nothing new there. And its not just physical objects that you can buy and sell, since the ‘Big Bang’ changed trading of stocks and shares, futures, options and all kinds of bizarre ‘derivatives’ to – Read More-
There’s all this fuss and excitement made about the Champions League. Players move clubs just to play in it, clubs ransom their fortunes to appear in it, owners want to win it beyond any other prize.

But I can – Read More-
Arsene Wenger has been royally pissed off this week (or, as they say where he comes from: ‘plus ca change’) because of tv scheduling. Nothing to do with Game of Thrones, series VII, being screened when he’s out at carpet-weaving class, nor that Alsace’s Got Talent will not be shown this year due to no – Read More-
I don’t know who I’m going to miss more: David Cameron or Gisele Bundchen. Its a troubling thought as the German-sounding Brazilian supermodel (errr, that’ll be Gisele) retires from her career of posing, pouting and preening, just as Cameron is about to become the next ex-Prime Minister of Her Majesty’s Kingdom of, blah, blah, blah. – Read More-
So its happened; the manifestos have been announced. Those promises stating what the political parties will and won’t do ‘when’ they’re elected to power. Right.
