Month: June 2005

I get so much stuff through the email. Most of it I just can’t keep up with .. or post.. I’ve got a few bits and bobs here – they’re not quite work safe, but they’re no worse than a copy of The Sun! First up though, I’ve got this 3500 Watt Generator for sale. If anyone is interested please… Read more →

Say what you will about the British people. We moan when it’s hot, we moan when it’s cold, we moan when it’s wet, we moan when it’s too dry. We love to moan, we love to complain, we hate giving ourselves a pat on the back or telling someone else that they’re great. We like Fish and Chips and we… Read more →

“I’ve entered my local newspapers Baby of the Year competition with my photoshopped son, Juanzo – well, blow me…they printed it today.” Huzzah! We’re giggling like loons. We also want you, dear readers, to vote for him so he can win the coveted prize. http://www.voteforjuanzo.blogspot.com/ —————————————— This one is hard to describe – a chap (almost certainly Dutch) has rigged… Read more →

Smoking. It’s not big, or clever. You stink like crap and you’ll get some horrible fatal disease one day. You’ll come up with feable excuses like, “It’s no worse than drinking alcohol” or “I like it, it calms me down, sod off!”, to mask the fact that you’re actually hopelessly addicted to the things. I know what you’re thinking though..… Read more →

Oh dear.. there’s me reading about the Russian tennis babes in Wimbledon, when I stumble across this picture. It’s lovely Maria Sharapova, and she’s one very nice lady. This picture is from Sports Illustrated and I, like any red-blooded mail, was thinking, “Hello lady..” Then I read the text alongside.. “Sharapova poses in this 2002 photo shoot. Still a month… Read more →

Getting drunk, very very drunk. Well, what else can you do in this weather ? When people invite you to their barbeques and ply you with free lager, it’s not too surprising that I tend to fall off the wagon! :) Saturday was fairly warm – a nice 30 degrees C. I spent most of the day looking for Fathers… Read more →

This weekend I have been mostly drinking lager. Well, actually… no. I’m actually (horror of horrors) cutting back slightly on the beer. I live in Lichfield, and we’re actually famed for being the best recycling council in the UK. There’s a couple of green boxes – one for bottles, jars, cans and stuff. The other for paper and card. These… Read more →

I see that the government are pressing ahead with their Road Charging Scheme.. http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30000-13367064,00.html Wait a minute.. I pay 170 quid a year for road tax at the minute. I do 70 miles a day getting here, which is 350 miles a week – with say 50 miles at the weekend. That’s 20,800 miles a year. If, according to the… Read more →

Actually I’m not a big fan of horses. They don’t like my “Why the long face?” jokes… anyway.. this morning I was listening to the Chris Moyles Show and the excellent dudes at DiffusionOnline have made him another crazy tune to play out. It’s all due to this “I Love Horses” magazine which isn’t (I’m told) anything to do with… Read more →

Normally I’m not too annoyed by TV adverts. Yes, that damned frog (right) needs shooting – sure, but to moan about the KFC commercial because it features some people with mouths full? Now that’s a bit sad really.. There’s more examples of complaints on the Advertisting Standards website… however, we’re quite pleased to see that yet again the Crazy Frog… Read more →
