what a waster - what a fucking waster
The state of modern Britain. I would bet my house he voted for Brexit and The Tories. The badly dressed piss stained illiterate lump of congealed lard.
Never vote Tory.

the daily mail in 1938
A leopard never changes it's spots. The Daily Mail in 1938. Of course the language used today is soooo different.

the goosestepping march towards fascism continues
I'm 100% behind Gary Lineker, and sod the Conservative party complaining about the BBC and their so called impartiality rules against employees (Despite the current BBC chair Richard Sharp obtaining an £800,000 loan for Boris Johnson before being selected). They never object if the BBC are supporting their policies, such as Andrew Neil from their politics show tweeting right wing views, and there wasn't anything like this when Danny Dyer had a go at David Cameron, but l think Lineker has hit a nerve. Sadly and callously, it's also a wedge politics distraction from the policies they are trying to push through. Once again, the Tories can just fuck off, although you have to admire the way they managed to find in Suella Braverman someone more poisonous than Priti Patel.
Never vote Tory

a fine looking tiger
A great photograph by Tony Zerna. It looks cute, but that tongue can rip skin to the bone.

another big day today - man utd v liverpool
It's Manchester United versus Liverpool again today, for me, is the biggest game of the season in the league. I had tickets for Will Sheff from Okkervil River at Leeds tonight, but gave them away, as the football is more important, and I hadn't realised the events clashed (and l've got work in the morning which l couldn't get out of). Let's hope it's a good result, or l will be mightily pissed off.
Here's a reup of some of my old programmes.

johnny depp goes shopping
Johnny Depp has been out and about, shopping at Hemswell's Antique shop in Lincolnshire. All well and good, and he is obviously approachable. But what the fuck is he dressed like? Fair enough if he has just been doing a bit of painting or is on his way home after a three day bender, but he always used to be so cool and stylish, and this sartorial aberration is becoming a regular occurrence.
I blame The Tories.

the joy of australia
Both of these little beauties are venomous. And people wonder why l don't go to Australia. It's scary enough going in my own garage.

Someone's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight - Earl Vince
Released as the 'B' Side of the Fleetwood Mac 'Man of The World' single, under the name Earl Vince and the Valliants,
john taylor is nearly my doppelganger
Rather like me, John Taylor is an outrageously handsome and intelligent man of taste and varied interests. Unlike me, he's a man of wealth and taste, which make a huge difference.

dortmund beer
A reason why the fan experience of going to football in Germany is better. As well as being much cheaper to get in, you can also buy 6 beers for 14 Euros, and get a handy device to carry them in.
One of them each half and you're sorted!

Well, this isn't exactly new news, but it's good to have some more proof.
Never vote Tory.

understanding polari
Your handy guide to understanding Polari, from the Julian and Sandy lp, which is nowadays much sought after.
For those that don't know, they were characters in the 'Round the Horne' radio series, and very funny they were too (as was the whole show).
If you want to listen to the album, it can be found here.
Enjoy!

dodgy ecstasy
Bought some dodgy Ecstasy last night. I must be getting used to them, as l took the whole packet and they had no affect, although they did taste nice for a change.

when l was a coalman
I was persuaded to work for this company for some cash in hand many moons ago. I did one day and thought 'Never again'. Way too much like hard work.

the band l was in
Dr Jive. This is just after l was politely asked to leave, which was fair enough, as l was the singer (and couldn't really sing).
From the top..Snoddy, Lammy, Moz and Rocker.
Brexit - Still going well
More joy from the sunlit uplands
And for anyone still playing Yellowhammer (the governments own predictions of what may happen after Brexit) bingo, l think the card is about complete.

the elements are testing me
Thanks to the recent winds, part of my garden fence has come down, and the whole thing may be unsound and need to be replaced.
Bugger.
I blame God and the Tories.

slade at the mayfair
I just saw this ticket the other day so thought l'd post. On this day in 1981, l was at Newcastle Mayfair, watching the magnificent Slade, who were having a second wind as a band after going down a storm at Reading Festival the year before (which l was also at). It was packed, sweaty, loud and superb.
