It struck me earlier, that very few people actually know the true history of King’s Lynn. This is perhaps partly due to the fact that few people want to know the true history of King’s Lynn, and partly because of the fabrications by those historians ‘protecting the interests of tourism’. Many would have you believe [...]

Two finger Kit Kats are the most depressing biscuit in the world. Every time I see one in the morning, I think “Oooh, Kit Kat! That’ll do for later! Perfect!”. Except it won’t do for later, because whereas now it is a impressively angular and well shaped shiny stately looking bar (wearing an official looking [...]

That’s if ”triumph of TV modernisation” can be translated as “pitiful, wasted opportunity to bring a literary classic to a new audience”. I can’t help but think their brief was as follows: “We need a new series. Like ‘Doctor Who’ but not called ‘Doctor Who’. It needs to be stylish and gimmicky… again like ‘Doctor Who’… but [...]

I’ve been watching “Jeremy Kyle”. I don’t think there’s anything more uplifting in the world. I think Jeremy Kyle should be prescribed to cancer sufferers around the world, it’ll either cheer them up… on the basis that it’s one hundred times better to be an intelligent person with cancer than a healthy idiot, or possibly [...]

Two of them to be exact. How can I prove this? I can’t, but I did set them up websites, so it’s clear that they probably exist. I can tell you at least that they definitely aren’t mannequins stolen from Millets wearing wigs and soiled charity shop clothing*. First up, because the alphabet insists, is [...]

I haven’t had time for this in ages. Or rather, I haven’t made time for this in ages. Instead I’ve been working, spending, selling, sleeping, dreaming, drinking, and eating. Today I have a very welcome day off, after a weekend that involved spending two nights sleeping in a primary school field whilst being harassed by [...]

I know it’s perhaps not the photo you were expecting, but I happen to think this one’s much prettier. No need for the other one. I’m sure if she wanted to show you her breasts you probably wouldn’t have to google it.

I speak the truth. I am actually ill for once. It seems to be some sort of cold, flu, or possibly influenza. Statistically though, I reckon it must be lupus. It’s never lupus, so it’s about time it was lupus, therefore I definitely have lupus. “I’ve got lupus Got it on a school bus I’ll [...]

It’s Sunday today, and I feel very guilty. Not because of a dark criminal past, but this time because of my lack of blogging recently. This is my first post in just over 16 days, and it’s not even going to be a very good one. I’m too tired. I haven’t really even got anything [...]

Good morning. I’ve been sorting through all my old documents! EXCITING IT BE FOR ME! Mainly because I’ve got about six years of mind effluent (in the form of essays, ramblings, pictures, scribblings and other assorted forms) to sort through. So I thought I’d put some up on here as I get through it. First [...]
