I may not like what Clarkson said yesterday, ”with his outrageously politically incorrect opinions which he has for money” but I can hardly complain about it – last year I absolutely cracked up when I saw Stewart Lee in Horsham and he did this routine. Remember “it’s just a joke, like on Top Gear” You need [...]

Mistaken identity

Today the BBC website has a story of police idiocy on a par with when the Irish police had Prawo Jazdy at the top of their most-wanted list. Basically, the police an address more than 40 times in 18 months by mistake. It seems they were getting calls to a house in Repton Grove but [...]

The perils of the Bruce Willis vest in middle age
December 14th, 2010 · No Comments · Music
Let me say straight off that I enjoy Elmer Food Beat enormously, and was overjoyed to see that they returned to the stage in recent years even if it was just to relive past glories rather then produce anything new. All I will say is that perhaps the singer might have considered not wearing the [...]

Flipping heck
November 22nd, 2010 · 2 Comments · Technology
My Flip arrived today – the new 8GB HD model, and very nice it is too. It is willfully bereft of features as it is based on the design concept of just doing one thing, doing it well and making it easy for you to make it do that thing. I had read good things [...]
The solution to gun crime?
August 11th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Life, Technology
This is supposed to be art – a sculpture that can turn into a gun, which would appear to owe a lot of inspiration to a certain James Bond film – but it could be the answer to gun crime. Just tweak the US constitution so that the right to bear arms means you can [...]
