Spotted on Bloggers4Labour: I was thinking of putting a bid in, then I remembered that as a member I already own it as much as anybody does.

Lucky, Lucky Oxford
September 19th, 2006 · Comments Off on Lucky, Lucky Oxford · Life
Not content with thrashing Crawley in the top 100 Labour bloggers league, Oxford inflicted another body blow on Crawley tonight when Oxford United stole three points from Crawley Town live on Sky Sports. I think this is about the third time that Crawley Town have been on Sky Sports, but I still can’t get used […]

Mastermind tonight
September 18th, 2006 · 4 Comments · Life
I missed it – who won? I noticed a large amount of hits tonight from people searching for things like “Nick Duffy Mastermind Sandman” so I am assuming Mr Duffy was on again while I was watching football on the other side. Did he win then?

Equator
September 18th, 2006 · Comments Off on Equator · Life
It was the last episode of Equator on TV tonight. The whole thing seemed to be over far too quickly. The programme had a typical Michael Palin-type concept: follow the equator all the way round the planet and make a film of it, but instead of Michael Palin we had Simon Reeve. Who is he? […]
Daddy Long-Legs
September 17th, 2006 · 5 Comments · Life
Is it just Crawley which is plagued by these things at the moment, or is it nationwide? They are not scary like spiders, potentially painful like wasps, or disgusting like flies – just annoying. They keep fluttering around skittishly, flapping into your face. It is like being inundated by very, very fragile moths.
The pleasures of opposition
September 17th, 2006 · 2 Comments · Politics
Having had a Labour council for nearly all of the last 50 years and a Labour government for the last 9 years some of us had forgotten just how easy being in opposition can be. Certainly now that we have a Tory-controlled council in Crawley it is a lot easier to campaign for the Labour […]
School transport
September 17th, 2006 · 2 Comments · Politics
I recently heard about something which has really annoyed me. Our girl has a friend whose sister goes to Manor Green College as a year 9 pupil. Manor Green is a brilliant school. Our boy goes there and has benefitted greatly from it. The school is for children with learning disabilities and is the result […]

Sorry seems to be the easiest word
September 16th, 2006 · 2 Comments · Politics
After apologising to Nelson Mandela for Tory support of apartheid, apologising for the previous Tory attitudes to public service workers and everything else, David Cameron is now apologising to the Scots for the introduction of the poll tax there.
Want to be a writer?
September 16th, 2006 · Comments Off on Want to be a writer? · Life, Work
I think most of us harbour some secret desire to write something and see it published. The urge is probably stronger in the case of those of us who maintain blogs, indeed it can be a way of getting such urges out of the system. But if you imagine being a writer as a full-time […]
Links from Tories
September 16th, 2006 · 3 Comments · Politics, Technology
I have found a couple of links or references to my little site from Tories. One is generating a few visits, and one could generate a lot more in the future. The first is from Adam Brown. Sorry, I mean Adam G Brown – he seems very insistent on the G. Adam is a councillor […]
