The big snow panic – I’m getting annoyed now

I’m getting pretty pissed off with the level of panic due to the snow here in the UK. Here’s a news item that’s on the FRONT PAGE of the BBC News website. It’s a Boeing 737 that has “slid off the runway” at Prestwick airport in Glasgow. The actual truth (further down the story) is [...]

People are bonkers, part two

Ekk. Now I’m getting even more annoyed. Yes, following my previous blog post I’m now annoyed by something on the local news. I couldn’t really believe my ears, so I had to check the website and ….. yes it’s true. On Sunday the West Midlands Ambulance Service had over 3000 calls to 999. That’s 3000 [...]

Disorientated or Disoriented ?

I’m going to blog this because it’s driven me nuts and for some reason there’s only a small bit about it on the web. Here in the UK, if I spin around on the spot then I’ll become disorientated. If I’m in the US, I’m disoriented. Meh. It’s like aluminium and aluminum all over again. [...]
