I'm just this guy... y'know? :)
Still cold here after all. I’d hoped the raise in temperature we had last week would’ve signalled the arrival of an early spring, but this morning again the temperature dropped to 2ºC and there was thick ice on the windscreen of the car. Luckily, or not, the dogs woke us up early so I was … More Weather the weather.
Hands up all those who know that 500 grams of green potato can make a 45 kilo person *very* seriously ill? It’s almost enough to put you off your bangers and mash. I just learned that over 30 people have been killed by solanine (found in the skins of green potatoes)… and over 2000 were … More Spud-U-Like
I was just reading a story at news.com about a caretaker for a property owned by ‘Mission: Impossible’ star Ving Rhames. According to the story Rhames had several dogs protecting the property… some were Bull Mastiffs and and at least one was an English Bulldog. The report suggests the dogs were running loose in the … More Fancy a fight?
Wouldn’t it be nice to be recognised as the next singing sensation? I could be you know… I’m half way there already. When people hear me sing I create a sensation… well they scream a lot anyway. And women have always fallen at my feet… ok they faint at the sight of me but that’s … More The singing sensation!
With the tenth anniversary of Lady Diana Spencer’s death (31st August 1997), almost upon us, the sharks are out in force once more. Knowing the deep well of affection that still exists for her all round the world the leeches are out still sucking out profits from stories and rumours about her life and death. … More Diana bashing a money spinner again.
I was in the bathroom the other day and for once instead of just using the mirror to help me shave etc actually stopped and looked at my reflection. Would you believe I had *no* idea who that guy was looking back at me?? I’m *sure* I was a damn site younger the last time … More Where am I now that I need me?
Was looking at the AA Weather Widget a few seconds ago which tells me roughly what conditions are like in the UK… supposedly in Cardiff but I can’t be sure. Any way… apart from telling me it’s raining (nothing unusual in that), it tells me that currently the temperature at 9:05 a.m. and of course … More UK weather ain't looking great!
Got this link to Mappy Hour from the wife… maybe she’s trying to tell me something. Either way this site might be the single greatest contribution to world happiness ever created. Remind me to thank her later!! 😀
Lucky Sydney! We’ve just been given our own party gear… or something. For a little while now loudspeakers have been appearing on the streets which of course are there to play stirring music… or maybe to relay pop concerts to the masses yes? Nope. What we now have adorning the streets of Sydney is a … More Big Brother on the way.
Reports are emerging about a film to made chronicling the Japanese atrocities at Nanking. The film Purple Mountain will present the ‘incident’ as seen through the eyes of a mother and daughter. This I’m sorry to say is one war crime that should *not* be made into a ‘popular’ film. The atrocities carried out on … More Rape of Nanking to be a film
