Should we be marking bloody events such as the UK’s 7/7 or the USA’s 9/11? We do these things, it is said, to ‘honour the dead’. Clearly, those who lost loved ones will never forget, and the gap in their lives will mean every day is a memorial. But the tragically unfortunate souls who died […]

Wimbledon is upon us and, with Mrs Watson hogging the television and the means to control it, it is on all the time. Is there a stupider game than tennis? Probably not. But I still like to watch it. But only Wimbledon; no other competition interests me. Ace serves, drop shots, forehand smashes, volleys, passing

It is now safe to put the TV on again. Glastonbury is over. What passes for music now seems to be either a couple of black guys with their shirts off exhorting people to “kill the IDF” or some Irish arseholes* in balaclavas saying much the same thing. Too bad if you don’t agree. Music,

Does anyone remember the UK Covid-19 Inquiry? Remarkably, it is still going on. Starting in June 2023, two years ago, it is being run under ten modules, and this week it had only started the public hearings related to Module 6. The module has been running since the end of last year. Nobody knows when

It’s still piping hot here in the man cave. The ‘glass is rising’ as they used to say. I do have air conditioning but, as we also had our compulsory smart meter fixed a while back, I’m afraid that the surge in energy required to power it might be noticed by Mr Milliband who’d be

Another hot week in the man cave readers. In fact, it got so hot I was almost tempted to undo my top button and slacken my regimental tie. The waistcoat did come off at one point, but my beer-belly was obscuring the keyboard, so that had to go on again. I caught a glimpse of

Karl Marx’s famous declaration—inscribed on his tomb and drawn from his Theses on Feuerbach—reads: “The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways. The point, however, is to change it.” Yet this call to action, once revolutionary, may have outlived its usefulness. In its place, Continuism, an emerging philosophy, offers a different proposition: the
It’s been sweltering in the man cave this week. This, apparently, is due to a phenomenon called global warming. And there was me thinking it was just called summer. We have had a yellow heat alert warning (or an amber one, depending on which of the daily drivels you read) which means, apparently, there could

‘We are tired of being used to score anti-vax points’ said the text preceding the link in the Global Health Now listing of June 10 to a STAT news item reporting an interview with three people suffering from covid-19 vaccine side-effects, or PVS (post-vaccination syndrome). It seems that the pro-covid-19 vaccination lobby has found three people it can trust to
Now Even the Pro-vaxxers Admit Its Side Effects Read More »
According to certain sources close to my wife, I spend too much time in my man cave. In fact, these rumours may well be emanating from the great lady herself as I hear it repeatedly from our children, grandchildren and friends. My man cave is my garden office, custom built to my own design when
