Black Monday

It is now Monday, yet the phrase "Black Friday" is still being used ad nauseam on both social media and in mainstream advertising.

FFS, when will it ever end??

Bollocks To Black Friday

Happy Thanksgiving

A happy and peaceful Thanksgiving to my American friends.

Taking Offence

Those people who take offence on a regular basis at the slightest little thing, would do well to avoid reading books/newspapers, watching TV, listening to the radio, using the internet or indeed interacting with other human beings.

Advice To NATO Members

Don't shoot down Russian fighter planes engaged in bombing ISIS.

We are, allegedly, on the same side in the fight against ISIS!

Lockdowns

Lockdowns can be effective, if you manage to arrest the person(s) that has/have necessitated the lockdown. However, in the event that he/she/they evade you how do you climb down from a lockdown?

Advice To Businesses

Do not be quick to spend money you haven't got, in order to resolve someone else's fuck up!

Happy Beaujolais Nouveau Day!

Corned Beef

Corned beef is a most excellent staple to have in your cupboard, not only does it make excellent sandwiches it also serves well in a hash or equivalent!

Regime Change

Not one of the USA's most successful foreign policy initiatives.

Maybe the US should take a leaf out of the Federation's book, and adopt a policy of non interference?

Advice To Customers and Suppliers

It helps if you don't dick each other around, and are upfront at the beginning of a business relationship.

Happy Friday The 13th!

Leaf Blowers

Leaf blowers are without a doubt one of mankind's least useful inventions.

Not only are they noisy, but instead of sucking up leaves they blow them hither and thither; thus moving the problem from one place to another!

Armistice Day

War and Forgiveness

The cycle of war and bloodshed can only end when there is forgiveness.

Question For Andrex

What on earth do I need vitamin E enriched toilet paper for?

I am not going to eat it!

Remembrance Sunday

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old.

Art and Pain

Only true art is born out of pain.

How do we know this?

"Pain" is part of "painting"!

Domestic Building Projects

When embarking on domestic building projects, in order to avoid absolute chaos (financially and physically), always ensure that they are carried out in bite size portions rather than a shock and awe one off mega project!

Advice To Chefs

Portions are meant to be sufficient in quantity to be classified as a meal, and not be so small that they can only be classified as a "sample".

What Lurks Behind the Kitchen Unit?

Beware pulling out kitchen units, in order to access pipes, all manner of hidden long forgotten horrors are lurking there!

Monday

It's Monday, have it large!
