Idiot Sightings – they walk among us!
IDIOT SIGHTING #1 My daughter and I went through the McDonald’s take-out window and I gave the clerk a £5 note. Our total was £4.20, so I also handed her a 20 pence piece. She said, ‘You gave me too … Continue reading

I was watching Corpse Bride with the kids recently, and was completely struck by the similarities between slimy Lord Barkis and our permatanned Secretary of State, Peter Hain. It’s quite sinister really. If you don’t think there’s a resemblance between … Continue reading
10 Commandments To Be Re-Released?
Paint the front of your house with lamb’s blood, lock up your first born son and lead my people out of Egypt, Moses. Word reaches me that the classic 10 Commandments movie is about to be re-released. Check out the … Continue reading
King and Queen of the Blogworld!
Yeah, that’s right. After a terrible snubbing at the Irish Blog Awards (in which, in fairness we didn’t push readers to vote for us), my better half and I have won the Holks on the Fill “King and Queen of … Continue reading

What Made Airport Security Suspicious?
I’m curious what you guys think about this. Back in December, when we went to Rome, I was held back by Airport security at Aldergrove. I was a bit surprised – this had never happened before – but I went … Continue reading
