You mean grass isn't meant to have tinges of brown and yellow? 
200 days to go to the olympics. Coe has said it's the largest project the UK has delivered in peacetime. I find it both ominous and distasteful that he thinks this is a selling point
That is a bit of a strange 'positive'.
Does the Olympics only last 2 or 3 weeks? That's the only positive I can think of. And the fact we get another Ab Fab episode.
Actual games two and a half weeks. People clogging up London and wondering why the hell they've put such a big event on in a borough with the worst transport links, all summer.
Arg.

"Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting." George Orwell

Orwell's such an amateur, in Hackney we'll be providing shooting too
Scottish Devolution -
Why in a time of such harsh austerity are we willing to spend millions of pounds on Alex Salmond's ego boosting vanity project?
The Scottish people aren't stupid, they saw what happend when Ireland joined the Euro, so they're not going to vote for independence.
What will most likely happen is that the Scottish will take some form of token independence - with the English footing the bill - all so Alex Salmond can pretend to be Braveheart or whatever.
Och!
Three pound fifteen pence to send a manuscript second class in the same city. Should've just walked across London to their offices.
What was the manuscript?
Nosey people piss me off.
Just a bookywook that no-one asked for and that probably won't get read.
And another thing! I am going out this evening. Because of shit transport links it will cost me eight pounds ten pence to go a few miles. I am so sick of the cost of travel in this city and this country. Fortunately I am so grumpy that I hardly ever get invited anywhere
Did you write 'nude pics of author inside' on the envelope, like I told you to?
Of course. I was supposed to actually include them, right?
