Yes folks, Top Gear is back on BBC2 and thanks to the wonders of this here internet those of us outside the mother country get to watch it as well. The title of the post is a quote from the ever quotable Jeremy Clarkson, who was referring to Honda drivers. I’ve been somewhat remiss of …

Blogger Alert
Look everyone Jo Davis has started a blog. It’s a shame that the content rivals my other blog in dullness, but a good start none the less. Welcome to the blogosphere Jo and can we have more cat pictures please? Oh, and I would have left a welcome comment but it’s a little tricky without …
Revenge of the Toss
I’m sorry, I couldn’t not point to this cracking review of the latest (and hopefully last) overblown space opera from Mr G. Lucas. It say everything that needs to be said about the film. This is the last time I’ll mention "the Wars" I promise.

Productivity Shot

On unrelated news I managed to come last in the tennis club monthly round robin competition yesterday. I played like someone with a PhD in Advanced Muppetry. On un-unrelated news, the new …
