As Mandy was looking for a new watch I was aware that Oasis in Covent Garden smelt of farts, it was then that I saw someone buying what can only be described as utterly ridiculous footwear. Enter the Ugg boots. If you were doing a GCSE in Fashion & Footwear Design and you had the… Continue reading Ugg boots and Melton Mowbray
Treena and Tina
We had lunch at an Italian place in Covent Garden today and the Whitebait has been repeating on me all afternoon, it was nice the first time around, now it just smells of Kattomeat. Out of the blue I met Treena and Tina, two friends from school who where with a Hen night on the… Continue reading Treena and Tina
Back from India
Sitting in the confines of what now seems like our luxurious flat, it’s difficult to try and sum up the last three weeks we’ve spent in India. It has been an eye opening experience, one in which the senses have been overloaded at every corner in an almost overwhelming manner. At three weeks we only… Continue reading Back from India
The future of this country
Phrases come and go in the inevitable manner that denim will change its shape and colour – Bleached, pockets, stonewashed, ripped, baggy, tight, ripped again, boot cut ect. At last we seem to being seeing the back of the much loved ‘Whatever’, a term thought to show a complete lack of interest in the coolest… Continue reading The future of this country
No more blog for FC, for three weeks
Right, I’m going on holiday for three weeks so I probably won’t be updating my blog of insightful and well reasoned comments. Considering that it’s only myself and FC that read the entries , a few weeks absence really is no big deal. That fat bastard will have to find something else to do whilst… Continue reading No more blog for FC, for three weeks
How does it feel now Countryside Alliance?
By the end of today hunting with dogs will be banned in England and Wales, bringing success to the League Against Cruel Sports 80 year campaign against Fox hunting. What small resemblance of a democracy we have in this country has finally stood up to the establishment and outlawed a cruel and barbaric pastime, a… Continue reading How does it feel now Countryside Alliance?
We’ll fight them in the streets
Despite my earlier comments about the Countryside Alliance, I was inspired and almost impressed to see people causing havoc outside Parliament today. I may not agree with the reasoning behind their cause, but I must concede some admiration for their ability to let politicians, and the country as a whole, realise the depths of their… Continue reading We’ll fight them in the streets
BBC Last night of the BNP
Yesterday two completely different audiences watched two aspects of our country highlighting the enormous prevailing gap in our increasingly polarised society. Last night of the proms provided a group of hopelessly misguided, and without meaning to sound to bitchy, universally ugly white middle England types with the annual opportunity for gratuitous flag waving. The celebrating… Continue reading BBC Last night of the BNP
Journalists and their fabulous offspring
An article in the New Statesman this week reminded me of why I stopped reading The Guardian a few months back. The rot started about a year ago after I read an astounding piece in the almost unreadable Saturday magazine about a journalist’s delightful teenage son and his bad breath (predictably it was a holiday… Continue reading Journalists and their fabulous offspring
Jonathon Ross isn’t funny
Jonathon Ross. The Noel Gallagher interview was embarrassing even by southern standards. Avocado salad? Give the licence payers valuable money to the genius that is Ray Mears.
