As usual, Jon Stewart has nailed it.
Booze, news and views from a drunken opinionated fool who can't spell very well, may well repeat himself, and can't blame it on dislexia

nigel farage as two faced as ever part 565565655
I'm old enough to remember the Brexit he pushed for was about 'sovereignty / taking back control / not being ruled by leaders we didn't appoint" What a spineless money grabbing lying racist twat he is.

james o'brien and injun making me consider going vegetarian
I'm a fan of James O'Brien and l also like eating chicken, but despite the fact l know that they are obviously killed so that l can eat them, this praise for the food outlet hits home more in that it highlights a chicken will be killed just for me, and l would not be able to go into a shop and request that, and l am not having a go at the shop or James (as l know him). I was pretty much vegetarian years ago apart from KFC (yes - l know!) but l may well head in that direction again at some stage as this has given me something to think about. Then again, drink has been taken (Bailey's if you must know) so l may change my mind again tomorrow, and it also looks so nice.
marc bolan at the honky chateau
This page featuring the late great Marc Bolan is from Music Scene magazine dated January 1st 1973, and it would make a great lp cover (minus the small writing). Somebody please sort it out. Merci Beaucoup!

at least us manchester united fans can still have fun
Sometimes, especially in these times, you've got to make your own fun and just try to enjoy life. It also helps if you try and ignore some of the crap football.

nicolas maduro removed by the usa
Apparently Nicolas Maduro has been removed from Venezuela by American troops. Another reminder that on Thursday he was agreeing to concessions and talks with the USA. Obviously this is not about him or the drugs, it's the oil and American influence, led by Trumps madness. Maduro is a twat, but let's not try to justify the American actions here. Imagine if Brazil, Mexico, Chile or any other South American country suddenly bombed the USA and removed Trump. Then again....Fingers crossed!

the two ronnies - caracas
"And in breaking news, it has been reported that Donald Trump has bombed Venezuela"
"Caracas?"
"No he's apparently passed three dementia tests"

Watch Al Jazeera News for the breaking stories around this attack. You know it makes sense.

hurrah! zohran mamdani sworn in
Whatever side of the political spectrum you are aligned with, Zohran Mamdini is the sort of politician we so desperately need, both in the USA and the wider world, being gracious after winning, and offering hope and compassion, rather than hatred and division. There's been a lot of the latter in 2025, so let's cross our fingers for more of the former in 2026. Hopefully, as the great master himself Bob Dylan sang, The Times are a Changing (again). Otherwise we could be fucked.
missing old school football part 5364563563563 - tiny tom wharton
This referee would never pass a fitness test nowadays, but it's sad that these kinds of characters have disappeared from the game. The mighty (in more ways than one) 'Tiny' Tom Wharton, seen here admonishing an attentive Alan Ball. I can recall the smell of marmite and possible violence in the air even now.
back to some kind of normality
Well what a Christmas and New Year that was. The blog has passed a million readers, and although l had thought about packing it in when it did that, l'm going to crack on with the nonsense. As my boss always tells me - onwards and upwards!

a box of records from japan? yes siree
A box of Japanese records as an early Christmas present to myself. There's nowhere in the world that's safe from my record searching ( and l may require an intervention).
and the new shelves are up!
Just a it of tidying up to do and they are sorted. I still need more space though, and now l may do some more so everything matches (and get a new rug).
