Television At Its Worst!
TV hit the heights of un-funniness this week with two programmes that have defied all logic with their lack of humour. Firstly we had Life Of Riley which is now, inexplicably, on it's second series. Life of Riley is about two middle class families struggling to merge their dysfunctional families, with Maddy (Caroline Quentin) in particular finding life more difficult than imagined, stumbling over unpacked boxes, deciding what paint to buy, ...
Farewell ‘Arry
I can't say that I was deeply saddened by 'Arry Carpenter's peaceful death yesterday, how can you be sad about someone who has dies at 84 after a fantastic life?

Gillette The Best A Man Can Get???
With the potential of money becoming really tight in this spiteful recession, I decided this weekend, for probably the first time in my working life, to undertake the futile exercise of seeing where all my money goes when I am in Sainsburys.My list was pretty ordinary, bread, milk, mince, sausages, eggs, orange juice, kitchen towels, bin liners and razors, and an uneventful twenty minutes beckoned, because in reality all the listed items were ...
