It certainly feels like the world is hurting. 2020 is not even half-done and it has brought pain and misery to many, many people. It has challenged us, and elements of it might (and in some cases should) change us. Our work/life balance, so often skewed toward work, has been altered. Our approach to how […]
Today the news has exposed the massive, unrepentant hypocrisy of the modern Conservative Party. Dominic Cummings, chief advisor to the Prime Minister, decided the lockdown rules weren’t really rules for him, and when his wife developed symptoms of Covid-19, he took her and their child on a 259 mile trip up north, to drop their […]
An interesting article has emerged in The Guardian about apparent plans from the USA to direct who the UK does business with. In short, the USA wants a clause that deters the UK from negotiating trade deals with what the USA considers to be undesirable trade partners. It’s believed that the main target of this […]
As we enter into territory we really should never have been anywhere near, having been told that we’re succeeding by a lying government, we find that government being aided by a media that’s largely interested in deflection and distraction, whilst government ministers tell doctors who point out facts to ‘watch their tone’ (some nice subtle […]

We have a serious suggestion from Donald Trump about injecting disinfectant to stop Covid-19. This comes from a man who barely knows anything about anything, and yet, you know people will listen to his mind-numbingly stupid suggestions. This kind of absurd, ignorant ‘help’ will cost people their lives. It’s the latest in a long line […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
This meerkat gets nervous about a lot of things. In an upcoming Prompt, I’ll talk about tardiness, and that sort of overlaps with this. Picture the scene. It’s a busy London station, and you’ve just bundled off the Tube, and up to the main concourse. You vaguely know when your train is, but you’re in […]
