Not as good as 'The Great' but not as bad as 'Alfred the Crap'. Thursday, September 20, 2007. Well, I've lodged my claim for one of the 20,000 tickets for the O2 'Stair-lift to heaven'. Gig in London. - me and 24 million other people that is. If my sums are correct, I have a 1 in 1,200 chance of getting one. But to be honest, even if there was just a 1 in a million chance, I'd still reckon it would be worth the gamble for a chance to see the world's greatest rock band - ever. Links to this post.

Not as good as 'The Great' but not as bad as 'Alfred the Crap'. Friday, June 22, 2007. Creditsafe.com - a word of warning and a bit of free advice DO NOT USE THEM! If you are minding your own business at your office - and a company called 'Creditsafe' from Caerphilly in Wales rings you - just tell them "no thanks" and put the phone down again. By doing so, it will save you well over a thousand pounds – as well as your sanity. However, Creditsafe.com. Increase from year 1. Understandably, we are not happy...

Not as good as 'The Great' but not as bad as 'Alfred the Crap'. Thursday, July 19, 2007. A trip to the dentist. I went to see my new lady dentist this week (the old one, the one I’ve been with for 30 years dropped dead 2 weeks ago). Tickly, I could hardly control myself. Anyway, after the torture of the polish she took an x-ray of a tooth in my lower right jaw. "I just want to take an x-ray of this tuth – it doesn’t look right"…. A ‘tuth’, you’re taking an x-ray of a tuth? Yes, this tuth here"…. I nodded...

Not as good as 'The Great' but not as bad as 'Alfred the Crap'. Wednesday, August 22, 2007. One of the World’s great questions answered…. I found the answer to one of the great unanswered questions of civilisation the other day – right in the middle of the A59, one of the busiest days in the country. Is it "How did they build the pyramids"? No it is not. Is it "Can I really turn base metals into gold"? No it is not. No it is not. And the answer is – yes …. and no…. I picked him up. Every single littl...

Not as good as 'The Great' but not as bad as 'Alfred the Crap'. Friday, May 11, 2007. The world of pain. I’ve been thinking lately about pain – and especially what kind of pain is the most painyest pain in the whole world…. Just how much pain can. A man – or indeed a woman actually stand? When is pain so. Ultimately hardcore that your system simply shuts down and you pass out? A kid at our school got a cricket ball flush in the ‘lower stomach’. Johnson, are you alright? Where are you hurt boy? My wife wo...

Not as good as 'The Great' but not as bad as 'Alfred the Crap'. Thursday, June 14, 2007. The caravans of love…. Today, I mostly spent the day trying to get to Swansea in South Wales. I had an appointment at the monolith that is the DVLA – a horrible vision of Soviet seventies-ness stuffed to the gills with jobsworth civil servants, coffee machines and filling cabinets. At the front of the queue? Links to this post. View my complete profile. The caravans of love…. Today, I mostly spent the . Bridget's p&#...

Not as good as 'The Great' but not as bad as 'Alfred the Crap'. Wednesday, April 25, 2007. Drinking from the Entente Cordial…. I think I did. Just then, I thought how nice it would be if I could say something. In French to her. My mind trolled back to all the Cointreau adverts I’d seen, back to my best CSE French reference books, back to those black and white Jean-Paul Belmondo movies of the sixties…. What could I say to her? Of course, brilliant…. Maybe she didn’t understand my accent? Links to this post.

Not as good as 'The Great' but not as bad as 'Alfred the Crap'. Tuesday, May 13, 2008. I wandered lonely in a crowd. (of about 20,000 people). A baking hot May Day Bank Holiday saw us break out the shorts, packed lunches, Norwegian walking poles, Kendal mint cake and my AA Book of Country Walks, (bought in 1975 and never actually used – until now). But where to go? Leafing through the book of walks, we hit the Lake District section. Shall we go there? Not being fell-walkers, mountaineers, ramblers or eve...
