Danger

Thank you Paul.
I believe that if everyone just sat at home scribbling about their day, leaving their ballistic missile propped up in the shed beside their strimmer, and calmly watched Leeds United making a meal of getting past West Ham in...

Where next?
Posted on Fri, 03 Apr 2026
I'm waiting for another option to become available before I fizzle out. I don't want to spend all eternity with Jimmy Savile but neither could I stand the constant harp playing and Cliff Richard. Also there are some people who are currently still...
