Skateboarding Pigeons

January 27th, 2009

I was having a conversation with my son about saving a pigeon which we found in the street with a broken wing a few weeks ago. He continued by asking me what would happen to a pigeon that couldn’t fly. I told him it would have to travel everywhere by plane from now on, or […]

The Hungarian Ministry of Silly Walks.

January 25th, 2009

I recently stumbled across a programme on ITV which is actually quite good. Yes I know … amazing. No heroics is on late on Tuesday nights and follows the everyday lives of a bumch of super heroes who appear to spend much of their lives  in ‘The Fortress’. This being their local super heroes bar. […]

Manu Chao and his train of fire and ice.

January 23rd, 2009

I have been a long time fan of Manu and his work. Mano Negra first came to my attention when i heared their version of the staple Rock island line. I was at college at the time (1988 maybe) and their punky ethic appealed. They could have been the musical off spring of the then […]

iS IT JUST BRIGHT BULBS OR ARE SOME PEOPLE JUST ARROGANT VISUALLY IMPAIRED WANKERS?

BRICK UP YOUR WINDOWS

January 19th, 2009

I was travelling into London on a trainthe other day when i came up with a number of great ‘ART’ ideas.
The first involves bricking over peoples windows during the night. All this as a stunt to draw publicity (maybe not) and for the expression generated on the face of the houses occupants when they awoke […]

BETTer people

January 17th, 2009

I went along to the BETT ICT in Education trade fair at Olympia yesterday. Te place was full of the kind of people i am sure you would not want to be locked in a lift with. There were plenty of pens stored in top pockets. I over generalise. I am sure there were numerous […]

What a women wants?

January 11th, 2009

On my way to work the other day i saw a lucky women who had got a puncture. Now ordinarily this would not have been considered lucky. Said youg lady had become stuck right outside the local fire station. She was surrounded by firemen helping her to change her deflated wheel.I wonder in what state […]

2009 International year of Astronomy

January 9th, 2009

After my night of star gazing on the 2nd January it appears my interest was maybe sucosciously driven. After a visit to my local library today it appears that 2009 is the International year of Astronomy. This is a year of events the world over as a celebration of 400 years since Galileo’s use of […]

isreal - get your Shitreet

January 7th, 2009

Who hates Israel? The whole place is fucked up. Israel, Gaza, Lebanon. All fucked. Every time i see an Israeli on the TV I try to watch them without prejudice but you cannot help think you self rightous fuckwit. Take this fella - Meir Shitreet. I watched an interview with him on the BBC (cannot […]

time and gambling

January 6th, 2009

I was listening to a discussion about gambling and the governments plans to force gambling firms to pay a levy to fund a help line for gamblers. Sounds like a reasonable idea to me. For my part i reckon upping the tax on a gamle would be a great idea - enable the government to […]

Winter beach vs Summer beach

January 4th, 2009

Spent the afternoon on the beach today. Although the weather and our car alleged the temp to be somewhere between 0 and 3 degrees it was tres pleasant. Top qwality cold weather action. The key was an absence of wind, so although it was undoubtedly cold it was not bitter, biting or brash. We have […]

Night watch

January 2nd, 2009

I spent the night outside watching the stars. When i can see them i cannot help but look and watch. One can totally understand why people throughtout the years and across the world have been fascinated. It was freezing last night but i didn’t care, didn’t notice. I watched meteors, saw whats behind the seven […]
