Am I A Celebrity Yet?
Author: admin
Celebrity Big Brother. I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. Celebrity Ice Skating. Celebrity Mr & Mrs. Celebrity Opera Singing. Celebrity Euthenasia. Unfortunately only the last one is made up, the others forming a seemingly endless stream of cheap programming sucking leech-like upon our insatiable desire for celebrity. And the single most annoying thing about these identikit shows is that the vast majority of contestants are not celebrities at all.
Back in the mists of time celebrities were people Read the rest of this entry »

Well as you all know the entire country came to a stand still over the snow and ice that we recently experienced. Obviously these are quite exceptional circumstances and we have not experienced weather like this for years. I was busy sunning myself in Australia when everyone got snowed in, in December 2008/ January 2009 so missed all the hype, but this year – Oh my word, what a disaster. Now I live 18 miles away from my workplace and Read the rest of this entry »
No More Babies!
Author: admin
The Queen, soldiers, puppies and kittens, Sex and the City, the Dalai Lama and Delia Smith: to this list can be added ’babies’ as subjects that cannot be criticised unless you want to end up as a social pariah. Well I am prepared to stick my head above the trenches and shout to the world ’No more babies - I have had enough of them!’
My resentment of the dribbling little screamers has reached breaking point with those nauseating Evian Read the rest of this entry »
The Menace of Our Streets.
Author: admin
I just had a walk into town. It was a pleasant experience until I stumbled upon (quite literally) something that should not have been there…
Standing in dog poo is not something that I enjoy doing. In fact, it really annoys me! Why don’t people clean up after their dogs? You can guarantee that they never tread in it when they are on their way round to Somerfield! Perhaps if they did they would be a little bit more considerate Read the rest of this entry »
Let’s Make a Clean Sweep!

Why is it that some people are just so grotty? Everyone has the right to live how they want to but surely some things are just unspoken rules. We all know that there are some things that you just don’t do. For example, robbing banks, killing traffic wardens and leaving your dog’s doo-doos in the street are all no-nos. Why is it then that we have certain people in our society who are horrible, dirty and smelly?
Sad To The Bone.
Author: admin
Is it me, or are some people just stupid?
Why is it that certain types of men (and I’m afraid it always is men) feel that it is necessary to play their music to everyone when they are driving around? If they think that it impresses the ladies then they are sadly mistaken. All the girls that I have mentioned it to think it’s just plain dumb. Dumb or sad; take your pick.
It’s really annoying when you are walking Read the rest of this entry »
Thin Air For Sale.
Author: admin
Why is it that so many companies sell things… that they haven’t actually got??? I’m not talking about dodgy sellers on eBay, I mean proper, ‘legitimate’ companies.
My dad bought a bed from Argos a few months ago and when he ordered it they said it would be there within fourteen days.
Guess what; after twenty-eight days he still hadn’t got it.
And guess why; because they were waiting to get one in stock!
When companies advertise products, they Read the rest of this entry »
Shutting-Up Shop.
Author: admin
Okay, imagine that you have just opened up a small shop in a busy market town. The early days of a new business are never easy and many people think that it takes around three years of hard work before you are properly established. You will need to put in long hours and lots of hard work… if you have a brain, that is.
Why the hell is it that so many small shops close on a certain day each Read the rest of this entry »
Ignorance is Bliss.
Author: admin
What is it that makes people so rude???
No matter where it is you go, you are guaranteed to come across total ignorance. When you walk down the street many people will rather turn away than smile or say, ‘Hello’. When you go into a shop to buy something you frequently get the impression that you are being a nuisance by giving them your custom. Shop assistants will happily stand and talk among themselves but when it comes to serving Read the rest of this entry »
Something To Think About.
Author: admin
This post is pretty sobering stuff. Try and imagine what it is like to be held hostage by someone for eighteen years. We should sit and read things like this when we think that we have got a lot of problems in our lives. Compared to this, most of the things that we would say are ‘difficulties’ pale into insignificance.
There really are some terrible things that go on in the world. We should not dwell on them Read the rest of this entry »
