A Double Espresso, a Blithering Idiot, a Chav Hunt, and Another Blithering Idiot.


Are you one of those people who simply cannot function first thing in the morning without that skinny latté? Are the first hours of another day of painstaking work impossible without a perky mocha? Are you missing out on the office gossip because you haven’t had your espresso yet? Well take heed.

A seventeen year-old student from County Durham was admitted to hospital after unwittingly drinking seven double espressos while working at her family’s sandwich shop.

After suffering palpitations, hyperventilation and a fever, the lass now understandably has an aversion to coffee.

After being allowed home after a few hours observation, a few side effects have obviously kicked in – but at least she can catch up on all that studying.


A 26 year-old man jumped from the top of Durdle Door rock in Dorset after being egged on by three friends on Saturday.

Crashing into the water at 65 feet left him unconscious under the water, and he had to be airlifted to hospital after a holidaymaker swam to save him (the man’s friends fled the scene).

Apparently, this sort of thing isn’t new. It’s one of many new thrill-seeking activities that is sweeping the south, for people searching for that extra rush of adrenaline.

I’ve got just one word for said man – PRAT!

Or alternatively, do what the seventeen year-old student did, and have a few too many strong coffees.


A public school has criticised a video appearing on the net featuring a mock-up fox hunt, with boys in shell suits instead of the friendly quadrupeds.

Former students from Glenalmond College near Perth dressed as aristocrats and chavs and staged the chase which features one boy wearing a cap being pulled from a river and subjected to a simulated beating from the tweed-wearing attackers.

Sadly, the video has now been taken off the web. But no doubt others will follow.

May I suggest a few cups of strong coffee…

And of course...


Karl Rove, the “brain” of President George "Dubya" Bush is to stand down at the end of August as his advisor.



“Brain?”

Look at him!

I need a coffee!!

No, better still. I need a pint!!!

Can You Identify This Man..?


I thought that after months of not posting anything, I'd finally find something to talk about.
Turns out I was wrong.
So instead I found this picture of someone, sporting a rather unfortunate growth on his face - either that or he missed his nose during a very violent picking session.
Either way, it looks hideous...
Don't have nightmares.
