I do imagine strange things sometimes

Posted on 11:18am Thursday 20th May 2010

THE general election came and stayed. We certainly showed the rest of the world how it’s done didn’t we? I bet the Afghans can’t wait to surrender now and experience the same sophistication as we did.

The Goody Two Shoes

Posted on 10:25am Thursday 15th April 2010

I HAVE always believed that you should never trust a man who doesn’t take a drink. Tea-totallers everywhere will be having a fit but it does hold some modicum of truth.

I WOULD like to thank the wonderful local artist – soon to be internationally famous if I have my way – Michael Troy.

Nomates hygiene is second to none!

Posted on 9:38am Monday 29th March 2010

IF you should ever follow any one of my brothers into the gents... I’ll start again. If you ever watch any one of my brothers in the gents… No wait. This does not sound as it should, does it?

The cheaper the prices, the quicker the service

I’LL tell you something. My moan last year about Mrs Dawdle keeping us all waiting at the tills has worked wonders in some quarters.

I DID art in school. I hate to blow my own trumpet – nobody else will touch it – but my chalk drawing of a wine bottle and grapes should be in the Tate National Gallery, if for no other reason than I included both blue and green grapes and the label on the bottle was spelled correctly in French.

DEAR MD of my Energy Company, (I can’t name names but it begins with N) How’s your day? (I hate it when they say that).

DEAR Mr Brown, I hope your bunch enjoyed the long Christmas break, which we, the British public, paid for one way or another.

MS NOMATES and I were invited to a bonfire, or to be accurate, her youngest had been invited and we were tagged on to the invitation.

Our teenage breakdown in Tesco

Posted on 8:50am Thursday 10th December 2009

MS Nomates and I went to Tesco to get a newspaper. Why does the Daily Mail only put the free DVDs in those sold in either WH Smith or Tesco? Ronnie Rover began to play up. We thought, maybe it was because he doesn’t like Tesco or maybe he doesn’t like going shopping on Sunday, which is somewhat understandable.

Does everybody get a free hair in soup?

Posted on 8:59am Monday 7th December 2009

BEFORE I kick off I want to make it perfectly clear that so far I have had nothing but good service and courtesy from the staff of a well known establishment which can’t be named for legal reasons.

All I want for Christmas is a good google!

Posted on 10:13am Thursday 19th November 2009

ANY day now we will have the Christmas cacophony from every corner ‘And so this is Christmas and what have we done? Another year older la la.’ To be perfectly honest, not a lot.

Sometimes things just come to me

Posted on 10:48am Thursday 5th November 2009

NORTHWICH was within the sovereignty of Vale Royal until some bright spark thought of a great way to waste money by changing us, so we now fall within the new unitary authority of Chester West and Chester.

MY digital alarm goes off at five am. It should be six, but I can’t set the blooming thing.
