I feel like I have been neglecting this site a little bit of late. I feel bad about that. But, your honour, it isn’t my fault. In the past five … Read More
Like the sad nerd that I am, I got filled with techno envy and impulse bought an iPad. I now need to justify this purchase by writing something on it. … Read More
Ratzilla shot on a Bradford estate! This is some scary assed stuff. Apparently some local yokels were out ‘ratting’ when a small group of huge rats ran out. The inbred … Read More
I was wrong I’ll admit it. See how damned magnanimous I can be? Last year I wrote about how swine flu was being blown out of proportion by the media … Read More
