It’s all tinky winky’s fault. We went to see the very pregnant Palmers at the weekend. Whilst we were there tinky winky (or Tim as he is sometimes known) whipped out his camera and took a few snaps of the boy wonder. He then put them on his website and sent me an email that …

ID Cards Still a bad Idea
So, seriously, how do we stop dangerous loony? ID cards will stop terrorism because everyone can be identified, unless they are visiting the UK for less than three months. Say hello to (as the Reg says) "away day terrorists" We also discover that the legislation will include provisions for public services only being available to …
No ID Cards Thanks
The Home Secretary has started to fast track ID cards. Bah bleeding humbug.
Number 7 with a bullet

Andrew Losowsky describes the loss of chin fluff much better than I ever could. Yes folks, the goatee is no more. After seven years of hiding my dimple it now gets exposed to the light of day again. Not that some people noticed mind you. SWMBO took several hours – but the reaction was worth …
I’m Nailed to the Sofa
Not a lot happening around these parts at the moment. The Sky+ box is fixed (well, replaced) – thankfully – and normal tv viewing has resumed. I left the small bloke with strangers for the first time this morning. Balham leisure centre has a creche, and he played in there for an hour whilst I …
