Christmas 2011

44 days ago by Sarah

Well here I am back from Blighty, the Christmas marathon behind me, the New Year gentle stroll to come. I will be celebrating NY with my TWDB only - no flashy parties for us with boozy bonhomie at midnight, we prefer to spend it à deux, at home - no driving, no fear of being stopped, no having to st ...

The state of this place

83 days ago by Dusty Bones

Over at Tales and Adventures, Smurfette is lamenting the loss of her pet motor. Last night, some horrible little scum-bag torched it and a couple others. Understandably, she's pretty devesatated and (probably a little scared). See, the little blue one has had her motor attacked several times this ye ...

Howling

86 days ago by Dusty Bones

The wild grey wolf called me up last night, seething and snarling after reading certain posts. Filled with burning rage, the Old Alpha howled his want for hunting down kerrs.

Picked up Mrs. DM from the boozer (she covered a shift) and got Stink Eyed by a couple of the locals. Not only a couple of the locals, but also Paolo, the land lord. Apprently, (though I can't b ...

Tough Guys

88 days ago by Dusty Bones

Further to my post re publications, I've been wondering what kind of middle-aged guy worries about who's the biggest croc in the pond.

Is ‘Broken Britain’ Broken?

95 days ago by Neil Fitzgerald

Dick Witless looks back on a golden era that never was: ‘Broken Britain’ Just one year ago, I knew precisely where we, as a nation, stood: knee-deep in the most pestilent mire this once-proud land had ever known. Blighty was blighted. The country hadn’t just gone to the dogs, it was the dogs, and no ...

The tax man does it again!

115 days ago by Dusty Bones

Being self-employed, I deal with HMRC more often than most. To be honest, it's never the best part of my day. I won't go into details of my own personal woes, but the words 'incompetent', 'blundering' and others of the type (prefixed by a load of expletives) generally pepper my conversation on the s ...
