So Ken Clarke is today going to suggest at the Conservative Park conference, that prisoners should work a 40-hour week. What an excellent idea. I cannot believe that our government actually has the balls to suggest this. I am very pleased. Here are my suggestions: 1. They could build Crossrail or the High Speed Rail 2 line. Crossrail has been in the planning stages for about 25 years now. 2. They could clean litter from the side of the roads – the state of our roadsides is disgusting. 3. They could generate electricity. Simple wire up exercise bikes to the … Continued

I struggle to understand why women are not flocking at my feet, desperate for me to have a baby with them, especially now I have finally settled on what to call a baby girl; “Tinkerbelle Margaret Semi-colon Winfield”. I think that beautiful, aspritional, reliable and traditional. Anyone disagree? Now…what if it were a boy… Maybe I should just think about what I will do when I win the lottery instead? *** Didn’t take me long. Deano Villaloväth Winfield.
I need a rant. Ooh, I’ve got a blog for that. I appreciate that I should not rant about this on the internet but my frustration is boiling over. I asked my superior if I could leave an hour early next Friday, to which the reply was “Do you not realise that it is the last day for processing?” Processing what exactly? The dearth of anything substantial to do is driving my mildly crazy. I am employed to make a contribution towards a company’s success. That generates personal satisfaction. I do not like sitting here all day doing jack. I … Continued
So what would my dream holiday be? Ibiza? – no done that. But would happily do it 10 times every year. Las Vegas? – no, but would like to play in a major poker tournament there one year. Tokyo? – Close, would be so exotic, so unusual, would love to visit, but not the number one. Skiing/Snowboarding? – We get enough cold weather here Australia? – I’d enjoy it, f’sure What I really want to do is go storm chasing across the plains of America. One of the main websites I use to get basic forecasting data from do 10 … Continued
Well there is very little in my inbox today, so apart from reading the news and trying to discover hot new tunes for me (and you if you want to know?), I am going to do some online training. Oh and decide what cake I would be if I were a cake. But I am offering you the chance to pick which course I do – first person to post a comment here or Facebook gets to choose. Life couldn’t be more exciting could it? Here is the list – don’t fall asleep: Emotional Intelligence Diversity Awareness Managing Conflict Positive … Continued
Unusually for a Monday morning, I have lots to say. I am tired, I am a little irritable – it is Monday morning and I want to be in bed. I have spent way too much money. I am incapable of saving money. I am desperate for a good night’s clubbing. It has been way too long. I don’t think I have actually had a really truly good night out since Cocoon In The Park in July. This is ridiculous. I am planning a plan to resolve this stupidly insanity-creating situation – somehow I always feel fantastic on a Monday … Continued
I have concluded that today is insignificant. Meaningless. Pointless. Worthless. I’ve tried reading the news, sport, Facebook – nothing of interest or amusement. No e-mails, no messages, not even anything into my work inbox. No IM’s, nobody going to the pub at lunch. Nobody going out tonight. Not that I can afford to go out anyway. Maybe it is just me? I don’t think it is though. I am listening to so many tunes at the moment which are so dull and uninspiring. Why make something which has already been made? Music is supposed to be a creative industry. Oh. … Continued
I can feel a slow day coming on today – and why? Well because I got a little too engrossed in Football Manager last night, and determined to end my losing streak – I started the season with 10 straight defeats. I think I turned a corner around 2am with my first victory, which came after three draws, two of which were against very good opposition. In case you hadn’t already assumed, I am playing as Hull City (in the premier league 2009/10 season). Anyway, so I did eventually drag myself to bed, and got a very minimum amount of sleep and … Continued
I Love Bankers I’m always one for a controversial statement now and again, and this one is perhaps more controversial than most, but I can actually defend it, and explain why you should be grateful for the bankers, and ignore the crap Vince Cable is coming out with today. Banks should take a share of the blame for the financial crisis, but the regulators, government and the Bank of England could have done something about it long ago. Banks should also however take a share of the credit for how far advanced the UK economy has come since the 1980’s, … Continued
I’ve never really been that impressed with my artistic abilities, I’ve always thought I was, well, a bit shit really. I know generally that I am a talented person, but art has never been one of said talents – I can envisage something but not be able to recreate it. So I thought I would try to draw with my emotions instead, and now I have realised that I am actually quite a talented artist. At the top is anger – my anger is mainly with society; Gordon Brown, Mervyn King, financial regulators, etc – everyone who has contributed to … Continued
