It's A Secret.


I'm starting to warm to Robert Mugabe. I think people are just being jolly nasty about him and should leave him alone.

Ok, so he's overseen the slaughter of thousands of his countrymen, ordered the maiming of countless others, put up the cost of a loaf of bread from 36p to £4,129,456,897.37p, created a police state, intimated and threatened the electorate, embezzled billions while the nation starves and stolen hundreds of farms while evicting their rightful owners...........but who can honestly say that as a youngster they didn't do the same kind of thing?

No, all of the above is just petty niggling from hyper-critical, namby pamby, pinko, Commie, lefty do-gooders. What these Guardian-reading types fail to mention is all the good Bob has done.
Bob is given absolutely no credit for his brilliant idea for ensuring political stability. When the airy-fairy, hoity toity, ok-yah, social worker-types demanded that he call a General Election he did just that. No-one could ever accuse him of not letting his people their say - but what happened then? He was only asked to tell everyone the result, that's all! Well, Johnny Noseypants, it's a secret - so there! I mean, for God's sake, if you call an election there is always a chance that you could lose - particularly if you've personally beaten up every one of the 13 million voters in the preceding years. What would be the point in telling everyone you've lost? It's political correctness (literally) gone mad.

Secondly, when Gordon Brown (notice you never see him and Robbie Coltrane in the same room at the same time) said the world was losing patience with him, he described the British PM as "a little, tiny dot" who could not speak for the world. Hurrah! Well said!! No-one in Britain takes a blind bit of notice of anything fatty says so why should the Zimbabweans?

Finally, Bob has banned all British journalists from his country. If only Brown had the balls to ban all British journalists from THIS country. Well done.

Admit it, you're still thinking about the bad stuff, aren't you? Ok, Bob had better go to Grantham.

Mmm - he certainly gives African Dictatorship a bad name, doesn't he?

I dunno that even Grantham deserves him, to be honest.

SHORTS DON'T MATTER! 1. From the greatest programme ever made about association football, Barnstoneworth United FC manager Mr Dainty delivers one of the finest English soliloqiues of all time.......and afterwards, spare a thought for the club steward's wife Vera (YOU ONLY HAVE TO WATCH HALF OF THE CLIP!!).

Not everyone who agonises over their life is a painter. Some of us agonise because we're NOT painters.

....And On the Subject of Great Public Services

I know most of you have heard this marvellous song by those doctors who are the Amateur Transplants......but I think the video is a nice addition. P.S. If there are kids in the room I'd shuffle them out before hitting play.

...There's More

On the subject of those great doctors, here is their version of More Than Words which presents their challenging views on women outside Watford. The very-soon-to-be ex-Mrs Pither, coming from Cumbria, is a huge fan. Again, get those kids out of the room!

Leave Britney Alone, Ok!!!

Oh...........my............God!!!!! My heartfelt thanks go to BGT for this. I won't say much more, I don't need to. Mr Loony of Loonytown, USA (I think it's a bloke, anyway), says it all. I fear he may be wound too tight for.....well.....well for everywhere, really!

I wish I'd sung this! For non-Americans, and with apologies to all the smart arses out there who already knew, the FCC is the Federal Communications Commission and it monitors TV and radio output in the States - a sort of broadcast police - while the EPA is the Yanks' so-called Environmental Protection Agency, a body which does exactly the opposite of what it says on the can. (P.S. We went to the same school, you know? Eric and me, that is, not George, Martha, Dick and Condoleeza and me. I don't think they went to school.) P.P.S. Please see below if you are I Like The View, Malc or Doris.

To Make You Laugh and Cry

I was listening to this on a Sunday, the very-soon-to-be ex-Mrs Pither is a Catholic, Tom Lehrer is one of my all-time heroes and this is one of his best.............no other reasons. On a more sombre note (and with thanks to Fish for coming up with this Woman's-Own-passes-the-time-in-the-dentist's-waiting-room nonsense), why not get a computer to tell you that you are a waste of space and your life is a sham of a mockery of a farce? Ok, it's from one of those poxy dating sites but...go on, take the test. You ain't got much to beat!!

I First Saw This When I Was Little - And Loved It! I Hope That Explains a Few Things

Fuck, Fuckety, Fuck, Fuck, Fuck

It has been pointed out to me that, particularly for one whose profession is supposedly literary, my language is getting worse. My use of the "F" word is, I am told, far too prevalent and hence loses impact. To those who share this view I suggest you watch the following:

Tony Blair Isn't a Burglar - But If He Was.........

In the spirit of Gustav Holst's Jupiter and Manfred Mann's Earth Band, I feel like raising a smile today. The Big Green Thing alerted me to this and, for no other reason than to raise a smile on an otherwise crap Wednesday, I think it has to be shared. Grantham shall not have him - when he gets out of prison.

Life On The Edge - No Net.

I was wrong when I feared it might be a dull weekend, what with my pals being away, my soon-to-be ex-wife in rehab and only the dogs to play with. How wrong can a man be? This much fun must surely be illegal? Just click to see the japes and hoots I am having! Click again to see how things got REALLy exciting! Tomorrow we're going to chase pigeons.
