Did you see David Cameron give that speech in Scotland? If not, then go and find that video and try and watch it without something appalling happening to your face. What a dreadful man he really is. I used to think that his smugness was impenetrable, like a thick layer of weapons-grade entitlement but there … Continue reading →

Has anyone turned on the news recently? This is not a trick question, I’m asking because I’ve had two weeks away from work so I actually spent some time enjoying myself and didn’t feel a need to constantly check my misery device for signs of life outside of office based stupidity. Admittedly, it’s more than … Continue reading →

A tale of tax evasion and fictional people you can talk to. It’s hard to stay the right side of aimlessly ranting when the need to furiously release a backlog of stored up rage takes hold. It’s difficult to measure the potency of this output so one doesn’t come across like a deranged advocate for … Continue reading →

I remember seeing them for the first time. They were dancing around each other, all ill fitting trousers and closed eyes, like nobody was watching and they were lost in some distant sort of hallucination. I didn’t even know clothes could be made from those colours. It was my first experience of a music festival, … Continue reading →

I have learned some things recently. Now I say this with a certain sense of trepidation but most of this new knowledge comes from a loose observation of people’s weird behaviour in times where opinions are fired around at will. The biggest and most pertinent lesson here is any issue worthy of precious time being … Continue reading →

Furious would be a good way to describe how I felt about the people of my hometown when the news broke that UKIP had stormed the recent European elections. They had the majority of the votes in most of the country also, spreading my disgust nationally for all of the wrong reasons. Knee-jerk reactions are … Continue reading →

I’m a Dad, despite what Facebook says. Confession time – I have a son. Yeah that’s right, I procreated like a grown up. This is not a great revelation by anyone’s standards unless you factor in the fact that he is now four years old and no, I did not just find out. He’s sat … Continue reading →

Ubiquitous pork-scratching David Cameron has spent the last few weeks declaring his devotion to Christianity in the press and generally making a mockery of the country he governs. A pretty solid performance from our Emperor I think you’ll agree. I’m not sure what sort of campaign manager he’s got in place for the run-up to … Continue reading →

British people love the British weather. This is an absolute and undeniable fact that can be looked up and referenced in The Big Book of Facts. We particularly love “extreme” forms of weather or, what the rest of the world likes to call, “weather”. The weather is often national news and in most instances of … Continue reading →
