October 29th, 2008

1. Aparantly he does a little bit of djing. He has always been into music and has a collection and can be hired for weddings, funerals and barmitzvahs.
2. He […]
World series
October 27th, 2008Now the world series has been wo does this mean Channel 5 have a couple of late night hours to fill. Perhaps they can find something less mind numbing. Baseball must surely be the dullest of games. I do not buy the long held lore that the hardest thing in sport is hitting a home […]
F1! Down to the wire CONSPIRACY.
October 25th, 2008Conspiracy. It may just be the cinic in me but all the signs are that the F1 bosses have done their utmost to ensure that the drivers title will go down to the wire with a Brazilian driver in the frame for scooping the prize in his home grand prix. I guess it is in […]
Trick of my eyes
October 23rd, 2008i was lieing in my bed this morning and was convinced i could see the stars moving outside the window. Using the window frame as points of reference and remaining as still as possible they, or indeed we were moving. We witness the sun moving across our sky each day (some days) but its harder […]
Buying rope
October 21st, 2008I had the pleasure today of having to go rope shopping. They all smelt so good. there were so many colours, sizes, thicknesses and materials. Did i say, they smelt good. Something of the sea. I made my purchase after careful measuring, inevitably making n incorrect sel;ection. One tip for anyone purchasing rope - as […]
HATER
October 19th, 2008
Now i think most people who know me would describe me as an ‘easy going’ gentle kinda person. I have decided however that there are 2 groups of people i hate.
The first are dog owners who do not scoop. We had 2 experiences while in Spain recently which thankfully are not repeated very often, particularly […]
Napalm BREAKFAST death
October 17th, 2008Ooh theres nothing like Napalm for breakfast. ooh how the head needs it.
The world is full of assholes and idiots i have decided. There have probably been the same amount of idiots in the world over the ages. The problem with society now adays is that we aremore in each others faces than before. We […]
Blown away
October 15th, 2008
Three things struck me today. the first came while listening to some ‘A tribe called quest‘. Pure gold in their make up, and yes that is a young busta rhymes - 18 years ago.
ThE second WaS an even greater blast from the past. I used to love OMD. Simple. How wet, the antithesis of Ministry […]
Freecycling
October 14th, 2008I joined freecycle a couple of months ago and like anything with the chance ofgetting something for nothing the thing is addictive. Before you know it you are telling people you would love to find a home for their cast off garden toys, computer parts and sundries. No matter how much you tro to limit […]
Plum stones
October 12th, 2008
Yesterday i swallowed a plum stone. Initially i was unpurturbed and continued my doings. the more i am thinking about it though the more i am becoming disturbed. Through the remainder of the day i was convinced i could feel the stone on its merry journey through my tracts. A little odd, i was left.
Today […]
bidets
October 10th, 2008I was always of the opinion thatthe idea of using a bidet was a little odd, nay yuckingly puck making. I am however warming to the co ncept. Call it old age but woooooo. Get it on.
Coincidentally happy bidet (belatedly in some cases) to Becky, Iosune and Amardeep.
Top tip of the day - def take […]
The worst kit ever? Stade Francais please stand up (we are struggling to find you in the ruck).
October 8th, 2008Is this the worst sporting kit ever? In question is the new kit from French rugby union side stade Francais. The club actually have some form as far as ‘innovative’ ‘boundry blurring’ kit design goes. In these attempts it is not just the boundaries which will be blurred. What do you think? Here are some […]
