@deramdaze: I’m unsure how Johnson’s tumultuous personal life would have been a useful point of attack against the Conservatives. Boris is an unrepentant hammer man and has never struck me as hypocritical about […]

Voice Of Reasonableness? *wipes away tears of laughter* I try to be polite but I’m barely keeping a lid on The Beast Within! Cheers, Deco, you’re alright 😉

Hi Declan – I was a bit rude to you there, sorry about that. I live right on the ‘Sheugh’ myself and I’d share your sensitivity about the deployment of the É-word. It’s amazing what can annoy us!

@Declan, there’s a day to be pedantic to well meaning neighbours who are great friends to Ireland and I don’t think this is that day. I’m also going to get all Eoghan Harris up in this place and add that there’s […]

Drill’s not my thing but – holy God – has anyone ever heard of artistic expression? Does Magna Carta mean nothing? Did she die in vain?

I think the turnout was about 67%? I haven’t seen any breakdown by age. I’ll miss mention of Dennis Skinner in parliamentary dispatches as The Beast Of Bolsover is a class nickname.

@Vulpes: you’d be more than welcome! The employment scene has really picked up here and broadband has improved a lot, also. I could finally stand you that Stonechaser pint (more like pints with compound interest).

I’ve deliberately abstained from commenting on the election campaign as it is my neighbours’ business. I just have one wee observation: I think that a lot of the votes for the Conservatives are borrowed ones (we […]

Oofah! Sorry for your troubles, Junior
Anyone else ever get scabies*? No? Just me and a 100-gallon drum of calamine then.
*Followed up by chicken pox and shingles in a sequence fated to end with dropsy, […]

@Sithere Mystery Road is absolutely outstanding. Not a weak link in the whole damn chain.

From The Contenders to Lunatics, Chris Lilley can do little wrong as far I’m concerned. The Guardian’s enduring disdain only sweetens the pot.

While having a very particular set of skills is important for both CV box-ticking and going on violent revenge binges, it’s the intangibles – other interests, intuition that you’re a good fit – that can help in […]

*Voice of Satan* Not my bag, baby. The blood-drenched, soul-shrivelling whelping of hip-hop demon DJ Khaled was the last time I dipped my cloven hoof into matters poptastic.

‘We used to burn donkey dung to keep ourselves warm and then we burned the donkey once the dung ran out’. Brilliant show on par with Silicon Valley.

Re Derry Girls, I hope Lisa McGee remembers to supply a few more jokes this time (must admit though that the ‘cultural exchange’ episode between the schoolkids from each side of the Foyle was bloody funny).

Those QC35s are great headphones – prefer them to the B+W ones that are about 100 notes dearer.

I use Bluetooth/AirPlay via Apple devices including MacBook to various wireless active speakers and have experienced similar problems. You may be Windows/Android so I don’t know how useful this is but is the […]
