Wow the world’s a mess isn’t it? I’m finding it so interesting watching as day after day another group of economists, traders or world bank institutions start to forecast a complete global economy collapse. I don’t understand it all, but it seems everyone’s now borrowed up to their eyeballs and what with bail outs draining […]
It rarely happens that I see something that everyone else has raved about and yet I don’t like it. Usually I am happily on that bandwagon asking for a shotgun seat at the front or play a bit of banjo at the back as we chase after those who disagree. It does happen occasionally though. […]
So, er, there was meant to be a blog yesterday. I was going to type up about my weekend in the West County, the incredible high tea I had at Bath Bun in Bath, and many many other exciting tales from the Douieb’s travels. But, er, then I had an all you can eat curry […]

The last two days have been a flurry of attempting to write material in time for Old Rope only for me to write only three jokes, all of which will be relevant for a week – one only for a day – before disappearing into the ether along with the news story it represents. There […]
DALE FARM I’m not going to get into the whole ethics of the Dale Farm situation as I feel its a bit beyond my understanding what with them owning half the land and the eviction being illegal and several other facts all mumbled jumbled up in the middle. What I don’t get though is that […]
GLEEFUL TIMES Ok what will commence is some comedy type analysis, so if you find that mega dull, please turn your eyes away now. Not your heads, just your eyes. Yes, hard isn’t it?
