Its a horrible feeling when the last thing you post on Twitter is a possible hooray at the stay of a innocent man’s execution on Death Row, only to wake up and find out he was indeed murdered during the night. I’m not going to pretend I know all the ins and outs of it […]
I have lost my notepad. I’m fairly sure it was left at Old Rope on Monday night but on calling the pub and asking if they had found an A4 lined notepad, they responded with ‘no.’ Then they asked ‘what were you asking about again?’ and I said ‘an A4 lined notepad’ to which they […]
The last two days have been a flurry of attempting to write material in time for Old Rope only for me to write only three jokes, all of which will be relevant for a week – one only for a day – before disappearing into the ether along with the news story it represents. There […]

FEROGLOBIN I have no idea what Feroglobin is, nor what it does but thanks to an advert on the tube, I can’t stop thinking about it. I don’t want any. Far from it. It sounds like some sort of drug you’d give someone to make them turn into a werewolf. Admittedly, that’d be cool if […]
