Sack Them!

Maybe it's just a sign that I'm getting older? Whatever. For the first time in the history of the universe, Pig Sty Avenue is in complete agreement with a Daily Mail headline. Russell Brand is pond life. What's the point in him? I've never seen it.

And as for Jonathon Ross, I've never liked the smarmy cunt: in particular, he has the irksome quality, for a radio broadcaster, of pausing (not doubt for the laughter he hears in his head) after making one of his banal remarks. He is around 50, too - it's not as if he can be treated as young and daft.

The most amazing aspect is how much these two bastards get paid from our licence fee. Why? What's it all about? There's a credit crunch. Sack them. Let them work in a call centre, see how their intimidating phone calls go down there. The fuckers. Spend the money saved on Radios 3 and 4.

    Have to say I'm with you on this one nix.. neither are funny and I'm not sure if they ever were.. I'm sure we could fill in 2/3 hours recounting witty anecdotes from our past for a couple of weekends that would keep the nation amused for a mere fraction of what those fuckers earn.

Leech or flatworm? Ants and Swiss Chard

Image
For the 2nd time in a week or so, (1st time regarding dwarf beans ), I'm following Alys Fowler's advice, this time with regard to Swiss chard .  Long story short, after midsummer plants which often bolt if planted in spring will resist the impulse to do so, probably because of shortening days; (I say shortening, but in Glasgow, in July, we're still getting 18 hours of daylight).   I got a packet of Bright Lights , at a good price, (another reason to wait until July before sowing, lots of bargains, I've noticed). But where to sow them? Most of the 2nd bed is under a tarpaulin, but it wasn't quite big enough to cover the whole bed, so the last 5ft or so went under a sheet of plastic, (in the background of the photo in this post, here .) Transparent plastic was a foolish idea, weeds were growing underneath it, so I covered most of it with sheets of metal from the old shed. I decided to leave the tarp, but use the area beneath the plastic for the chard. Who-ah there...

"Chevy Chase. Fuck ever happen to him?"

As Paulie Walnuts said in The Sopranos. It got me thinking. As it happens, he's been working steadily , but you can see what Paulie means. It's like that with film and television actors: you don't see them in anything for a year or two, and you wonder if they're dead or perhaps on a lengthy charlie and booze session. Or maybe doing proper acting on the stage? Only appearing on the telly gives them meaning to us. That video with Paul Simon was on one of the cable music channels the other day. It always makes me smile. As for Paulie and the rest of the crew, the clock's ticking. Of course, America already knows how things finish, but we don't. My mate Ian was telling me about a friend of his, visiting the States a few weeks ago, flicking through the channels in his hotel bedroom, he hit on a repeat of THE final episode, just beginning. What a quandry! He watched it, as it goes, but kept shtum when he came home.

Sex Sells Cars

That's my mate Stewy, who nowadays mends really expensive hospital equipment when it goes on the blink. But years ago, he had a modelling contract with Lada cars. I think it all ended badly, for him and for Lada.
