The Bank Holiday Weekend Upcometh
Right, there’ll be no post on Monday, largely due to the fact it’s a Bank Holiday weekend. I’ll be honest, I am feeling a bit run down and exhausted with things at the moment, as I f...
Grim Up North?
A story on the BBC got me fuming late last week. Apparently, a think tank who really haven’t got much to do except masturbate and get in the way of life, have said that The North is “Beyon...
What a Sporting Weekend!

Slow News Day?
Remember when I talked about our first programme being sold for £6.50 on ebay? It’s only gone and made front page of the local rag! Yes, beating the stories of a 13 foot 4 inch sunflower, Mala...

PerfomancingAds - Awesome Way To Get Beer Money
It’s no lie I make a little bit of money through this blog, it’s not a huge amount, but it does pay for my beer money. Admittedly I don’t go the way of most and some ways are - whils...
Too Cuil for Scuil
So, with Google pissing off a large number of people with the introduction of Knol, the blogosphere are busy beating themselves off over a new Google Killer - Cuil. Unlike a number of Google Killers...

Re-evaluating Comment Spam
I had this comment on a previous post in the last week, regarding this site’s stance of “targeted comment spam” - long story short, I don’t allow it. Says the guy with thousand...
Things You Only See When You Watch Non-League Friendlies
I’ve had a pretty busy weekend this weekend. Friday was the glorious of all glories in this world - the start of the Football Season 2008/2009. Admittedly, it was only a friendly (hence no menti...

Hurrah! Wimbledon’s Over!
The most painful two weeks ever in sport is finished. I tell a lie, it’s not a sport. A sport you either have to go fast, tackle hard, or have tremendous aim to hit targets. In tennis you don...
Bollocks Pt. 2
Regular readers will know I’ve been learning to drive for about half a year. I am desperately seeming to sacrifice all of my chances of passing. A few months ago, I talked about my trip to Rhyl,...
