Life and other annoyances.
Today is a very sad day indeed. I have literally been forced by the pained screams that emanate from the dark recesses of my mind to write about this years X-Factor.

String up the celebratory bunting, dust off the glitter cannons and book the three remaining (and least entertaining) Spice Girls to headline the party of a lifetime, because us Brits are winners! Yeah sure we did very well at the Olympics and the Paralympics and all that jazz but those achievements pale into insignificance compared …
During the time since I posted my last blog I have devised a very clever little game, to while away those precious hours that should be being used for more constructive pursuits. The rules to this game are very simple. You think of a problem that affects you in some way, from the tiniest …
