Random Thoughts from the Souls (4: Why and How Come?)

I have a number of random quirks that have been floating in the vast empty space in my head to share with you today. Some may really only make sense if you live in this strange place called the UK, so if you think Huh…just ignore me. Why is it though, that most folk leave their expensive cars on the...

Random Thoughts from the Souls (Number 3)

An article appeared in the paper the other day about Religious festivals and how the Government want us to be more diversified. The view was that Christmas needs to be scrapped as it may offend non-Christians. Sorry folks, you can’t have it any more. You see, a government think tank has decreed we...

Alice Cooper + Motorhead and Birmingham NEC 10 November 2007

I can actually be unbiased on this one as I am not a particular fan of any of the acts on show. The first thing I have to bring up though, are the fans. The Arena was only half full, and despite Alice Cooper being top of the bill, there did appear to be more Motorhead fans on view. Additionally,... Sign in to see full entry.

Random Thoughts from the Souls (Number 2)

I read with amusement this week that the Spice Girls have signed a deal to promote the supermarket chain Sainsburys. Now I know a couple of them look like they should really be working at the tills in said supermarket, however, I can’t help thinking that they don’t fit in with this image. You see...

Bluetooth Headsets

Now these are devices I am sure you will all have seen from time to time. Those little devices attached to the ear for hands-free phone calls that look like this. You will have become aware while walking around the supermarket one day, when suddenly a creepy looking guy pushing a trolley starts... Sign in to see full entry.

Newborn’s Mum Dies for…Just Who Actually?

The actual headline read: ‘Newborns’ Mum Dies for Jehovah’. This refers to the story this week of a 22-year-old mother of newborn twins who died after refusing a blood transfusion. A Jehovah Witness, she held the belief that you should not have a blood transfusion. The result being, she died. I... Sign in to see full entry.

The Idiots I Encounter in My Day to Day Life (Part 6)

We had a strange telephone call today in which the caller had me doubting the reality of where I was. Phone Rings. ‘Old Hill Property.’ ‘Hello, is that Brierley Hill?’ ‘No, it’s Old Hill.’ ‘I wanted Brierley Hill.’ ‘I’m sorry, but this is Old Hill.’ ‘Why aren’t you Brierley Hill?’ What do they mean,...

Random Thoughts from the Souls (Number 1)

I caught a part of a major television awards programme the other night. Apparently in the UK, our top actress is some girl by the name of Lacey Turner. Now, I had never heard of her, but she is, apparently in the soap Eastenders. I mentioned to G/Friend, how sad it is that our top actress is a... Sign in to see full entry.

Useless Items People Want Me to Purchase

I had one of those mini shopping magazines drop out of my newspaper today. Come on, we all know the ones, full of little adverts for Orthopaedic shoes, horrendous bed sets, bird frighteners in the shape of cats and winter caps you wouldn’t be seen dead in. The other week, I attended a comedy-writing... Sign in to see full entry.

The Idiots I Encounter in My Day to Day Life (Part 5)

The Idiots I Encounter in My Day to Day Life (Part 5) Here is a short tale of one of Britain’s finest. It involves an experienced Police Officer of many years standing from one of the Major Crime Units. These folk are tasked with solving crimes of a more serious nature. Back in the days of old, my...
