If I had talent, I'd be writing novels instead of blogs.

How the Police Can Survive the Funding Cuts
Not even the police are above David Cameron's guillotine. I've come up with some suggestions for how the police can weather these massive budget cuts.
Naughty Bear
This game looks incredible. It has a twisted sense of humour, a wicked concept, and a narrator who sounds a bit like Rik Mayall. Initial reviews have been terrible, which is a shame. I really want this game to be good.
‘The Pacific’ is a bloody and confusing mess. And that’s why it is a superb depiction of war.
Even if the five hours that aren't battle scenes simply consisted of footage of Jeffrey Archer rubbing marmalade on to his slightly hairy chest, then I'd still heap praise upon the Pacific.
Stupid Shit from the Betterware Catalogue #2
Another month, another issue of the Betterware catalogue lands on my doorstep. This month’s stupidest product- GIANT ornamental butterflies: “Hmm. What would make my £150,000 house look better? I know! Making it look like a giant fluorescent Mothra is trying to have sex with the front of it.” Tackiness is only £8.99 away. Liam
“I’m honest, I’m from Yorkshire”
Back during my uni days, I used to take part in a panel show called ‘Have I Got News For York’. Original, I know. Anyhow, we’d take the uni’s news and attempt to be as satirical as possible. One month, Vision (a campus newspaper) ran an exposé on the disgusting mould in rooms in the […]

Anyhow, you can find them all under the ‘Tellybox and Other Vidbits’ category on the right hand side of […]
Stuck on Repeat
Do you ever get just a bit of a song you don't like stuck in your head, on a constant loop? I do. It's Hellish. I've just had it with the Marina and the Diamonds song, 'Hollywood'. Which, by the way, I believe to be a childish oversimplification trying to be cutting social commentary.
Footie footie footie
Given that it could be England's last game in the world cup today, I've decided to dedicate this blog to some of the better football songs I've come across.
Flags
Never one to be outdone, I set out to make the most patriotic flag in the history of ever. I had it all mapped out in my head. It would be stylish and sleek. It would sum up English values and institutions. It would feature Frank Bruno. I set out to make a flag that every England fan could get behind. I think I succeeded.
An Incompetant’s Truth
If you read the early school reports that my teachers gave me, you’d think I was the second coming. So I’ve often wondered when exactly in my life things started to slip. However, if you look at my school work from my childhood, you can see that I was just as mediocre then as I […]
