Now look. It’s like this.
We travelled to Llanelli in high hope, and we were beaten fair and square by a team who were better on the night. We have no complaints, though obviously we were downcast and disappointed. We travelled home in our thousands, sadder but philosophical about it.
And then we heard the [...]
I was listening to an item on the news about a new report from the Comptroller and Auditor General. This report is about hospital [tag]consultants[/tag], or more particularly about whether we’re getting value for money from them. A very topical matter indeed in this country.
I googled it and and found the report, entitled [...]
Did you see this guy’s video on the news?
He was as mad as a bag of spanners. A fruit. A complete nutcase.
I’ve been listening to the coverage since waking up this morning. Every station has it, on radio and tv. The world is shocked and horrified by the mass killings at [...]
I’ve made the decision. I have the WordPress account for a couple of months now, and the only thing stopping me was the fear of what would happen when I tried to move all my Blogger posts over to their new home.

A well regulated militia being [...]
I was sitting out the back with my neighbour Jimbo the other night, relaxing by the light from a pile of old tyres we were burning.
Jesus, said Jimbo, this is the life.
Indeed it is, I agreed. Slosh another gallon of diesel on that fire there.
Right, says Jimbo. I’ll just throw on some [...]
I was so consumed by anxiety over Scunthorpe that I neglected to even watch the Grand National, never mind put money on a horse.
So I have nothing to say about it. I didn’t see it.
Dum dee dum dee dumm dumm . . .
What to do?
I know, why not read what I said about it [...]
I don’t know if I mentioned to you that I’ve been doing a bit of a job on the old house over the last while. Did I mention that? Maybe it was before anyone started reading this shit, so it could easily have missed you.
Anyway, I have. For the last three or [...]
