I learned many things during the meandering days of my gap years, important life lessons such as how to ride the clutch for the remaining three miles back home because you’d run out of petrol. I was of course fortunate I lived in a valley and yet unfortunate that there was no petrol station that [...]

Dear Scott Carless You Sir, are a complete and utter tit. Now grow up. Sincerely, Yourself

Now I know I’m supposed to on some kind of ‘sabbatical’ just to prove to the world how truly pretentious I am but something caught my eye on the BBC news website today and I just couldn’t let it go by without commenting on it. The issue is regarding a Facebook page which bandies jokes [...]
We…We Are Some Serious Pieces of Work.

I’m always loathe to steal the lyrics from songs to feather the nest of my own textual meanderings, it seems like such a cop out to go littering one’s own writing with other people’s creations but what else can I say other than I do it and I don’t think I ever claimed to be [...]

Ladies and Gentlemen Firstly I’d like to thank you all for staying awake for the past 25 years, I’ve tried to vary the presentation at times but I’m aware it’s been a tedious process for us all. Nonetheless I would like to continue with our lecture with a slight aside. Put quite simply it’s a [...]

An update on the soundbites of our politicians and media. Previously I wrote a post on the matter of the Bridgend suicides and the rather simplistic explanation offered by the local MP, Madeline Moon, that it was all down to Facebook, Bebo, Myspace and other such ironically termed ‘social networking sites’. I read some further [...]
Foxes and Freedom, how Liberty gets Hijacked

Its about time I made my feelings on foxhunting perfectly clear; its a contentious issue for sure and one that raises many heated arguments.

I had an experience which made me truly question Democracy, in the tearoom my colleague Keith came up with the premise of all Arabs being Bastards.
