They sent up a space thingy. Seven years ago. To travel about 2 billion miles out to deep space. And these are proper miles, not those silly ones my electric car uses which are (sometimes) only about 300 yards long. The space thingy would have been travelling at approximately 27,000 miles per hour. That is – Read More-
Today is the ‘North-London-derby’, a match so unique, so revered, so… special that it warrants more column inches, or even centimetres, of prattle, speculation, hypothesising, naval-gazing and ranting than all the other football matches played in the world, combined!!! It is also the match which, for most Spurs fans, defines the sentiment that ‘we can – Read More-
People collect all sorts of things. My very old mate has, quite literally, every single Arsenal programme ever printed or scratched onto slate. No idea why you’d want that. You can start a fire with old newspapers. Another mate collects pipes. Smoking ones. Doesn’t use ‘em, just likes ‘em. Books, records, cars, stamps, you can – Read More-
I just received an email from Rishi Sunak. Personal one. Addressed to ‘Andrew’. Not just that but ‘Dear Andrew’ because he loves me. All Prime Ministers do. Signed it ‘love Rishi xxxx’. Ok, it was a form message, but ONLY sent to the most important 66 million people in the country. And he sent it – Read More-
Not Russell, for him there is no defence. He is the ‘Everton’ of humanity. The scumbag’s scumbag, whether allegation prove true or not. But I write, with hand on my heart, in defence of men. All men. Because it would appear, we need defending, explaining, forgiving and a host of other things, just because we’re – Read More-
Now here’s a funny thing. How does the justice system work? It works on impartiality, evidence, balance and fair… justice. No preconceptions, no prejudicial theories outside the context of the trial, just truth. So you get allegations made against Woody Allen, not very nice ones, fairly convincing, lots of relevant data, not looking good for – Read More-
Yesterday (and today) was the Jewish New Year. The day, as it is written, when all Spurs fans have to make the biggest decision of the year, whether to go to the match at White Hart Lane at 3 o’clock and upset their wives, families, parents, uncles, aunts and a few holier-than-thou mates who’d already – Read More-
There’s big talk about concerning the ‘triple lock!!!’ on MY pension. Yes, I am a pensioner and thus get paid by the state, have incontinence issues, dribble down my shirt and walk round in circles talking about Rommel’s attack in Tunisia. Its what we do. And we do all that shit because we can afford – Read More-
I am dentally challenged. Always have been. ‘Special’ in the teeth department. For the first year of my life I had no dental problems at all. It was after that it all started. And continued pretty much my entire life. Fillings, abscesses, extractions, crowns, my mouth is barely my own any longer, so full of – Read More-
Let’s face it, no-one wants a bunch of convicted criminals running round the streets. If we did, we’d move to Russia. Or Peckham. And yet when a prisoner actually escapes from prison, we’re instantly engaged and in admiration for the act. Because everyone appreciates that getting out of prison is not very easy. That’s, almost, – Read More-
