Alex Salmond’s Scotland: A Glimpse into the Future

My computer was recently reset to its factory settings and my decent graphics software has disappeared, so I had to use the free Microsoft ‘Paint’ programme, but I’m sure I have made my point!
This picture isn’t about the pros and cons of Scottish independence, but the cons of Alex Salmond as the politically correct, EU-loving [...]

Mega Caption Competition

Leg-iron spotted this collection of fifty very strange black and white photographs and came up with a caption for each one. I decided to do the same, but I have used the pictures to illustrate possible/probable ridiculous future EU directives, regulations and propaganda. Quite a few of the captions rely on you having read previous [...]

What’s been happening?

Two months and two days since I last posted. Sorry about that, but I have been hard at work trying to earn an honest crust. Sometimes, putting food on the table and paying the bills has to come first! I haven’t read much news, which has been a welcome change, so I’m not sure what is [...]

On today’s episode of “You’ve Been Nannied!”…

I’ve been in a lot of pain the past couple of days and thought I’d better stock up on more painkillers. It’s nothing terminal.
You know how they package them in boxes of just sixteen pills these days? Well, I picked up three packets of different painkillers in the local Morrison’s supermarket this afternoon, including one [...]

Weird Laws From Around the World

I will be writing about more serious stuff later, of which there seems to be an abundance at the moment, but we all need a laugh, whatever’s going on. One of my favourite things to do on the internet is find out how people have come to this blog. This morning, someone arrived at this [...]

Thought For The Day

I have sore knees. I took the dogs out for walkies and Muffin stopped to do a poo on the pavement. Like the responsible citizen that I am, I carry plastic poop scoop bags with me. Plus, there are sometimes faeces police in hi-viz jackets skulking around. It is one of the few misdemeanours where [...]

Happy Birthday, Dear ConDems

Actually, it’s a belated “happy birthday,” as it was a year ago yesterday that the baby was born which would be known as ConDem. Tory sperm had met LibDem egg and a strange chimera grew: a creature that could simultaneously be conservative and liberal, supposed opposites.
On the face of it, these differences would seem impossible [...]

Lord Lucan found, shot in face and body dumped in sea

Dramatic and astounding news is emerging that Lord Lucan has finally been found. The peer disappeared on 8th November 1974 following the murder of Sandra Rivett, his children’s nanny. The 36-year search finally ended when he was discovered living in a mansion in a suburb of Edinburgh. The decision had already been made that, rather [...]

No to EU: Make it Real!

AV defeated. Next: EU kicked out.

Pains in the Arts

A loyal reader has brought to my attention a new book being published next week called The Final Testament of the Holy Bible. Leg-iron has blogged about it and linked to this video of the author, James Frey, trying to be clever with the general public in an effort to give his notions some credibility. [...]
