Oh I loved this ! 

So many clever use of words in there, but I think 'Bit of a drag in womenswear' is my favourite.

"loping around a Lingerie department trying to look inconspicuous" made me think of that Father Ted episode where a...

No job, low wage  AND a huge

Posted on Sun, 11 Jan 2026

No job, low wage,  AND a huge debt of tens of thousands of pounds when they leave !  

When I went to university in 1973, only 5% of school leavers went to university, so a degree was really worth having.  We got a decent grant and I worked...

Real jobs

Posted on Sun, 11 Jan 2026

We definitely need more school leavers (girls as well as boys) to become plumbers, electricians, car mechanics, lorry drivers etc.  Job security, plenty of work, and good wages, if you're competent.   Much better than going to University IMHO. ...

Yup Modern Life

Spot on Harry.

I've just been to the gym and sometimes I'm the only one in there not staring at a phone. I mean most people are actually using the equipment whilst scrolling and staring.

I suppose you could say nobody goes...

The Triumph of Evil

Posted on Fri, 09 Jan 2026

I know Mark, there were lots of other words I could have used -'hypocrisy' is an obvious one.  'State sponsored terrorism' are another three.

There's irony and hypocrisy all over the place.  Trump has steamed into Venezuela and kidnapped a...

Help !

Posted on Sat, 10 Jan 2026

What a lovely man.

What might seem just a little act to me, not costing much time or money, might make a really big difference to someone...

Ludo

Posted on Wed, 07 Jan 2026

Hi Turlough

If the worst should come to worst and the vet recommends Ludo has his leg amputated, I just wanted to let you know that I had a cat with three legs who was very happy and active and actually amazingly agile.

Knotty was a long haired

Posted on Mon, 05 Jan 2026

Knotty was a long haired feral who I fed in the garden for 18 months, but I couldn't touch him. He would sit and talk to me while I was gardening, and always looked like he wanted to be loved, but was too scared.

You can imagine what a...

Crime does pay

Posted on Mon, 05 Jan 2026

I walked into the kitchen once to find my cat Knotty up on the worktop with his head stuffed in a plate of roast beef which I'd taken out of the fridge..  He'd only eaten two slices but I thought the rest would be a health hazard so I let him...
