RIP Big Old Hairy Boy

Posted: 25th September 2010 by Annie in Ramblings

I’ve been a bit sad lately, hence no posts. Poor old Lucky pegged it two weeks ago. He had cancer we discovered and today we are spreading his ashes where his old owner was sprinkled at the church where I was married actually. It will be a  discreet operation as perhaps church has objections to [...]

Playstation Move, is it all that its cracked up to be? Read on to find out or just skip to the very last word. After a lot of press coverage and a lot of time Sony finally released Move. It came out on Friday 17th September and the gadget-whore inside of me managed to resist [...]

Re-badging, de-badging and False badging

On the way to work this morning I saw a VW Golf parked at the side of the road. A GTi badge on the back, a V5 badge on the front…. It got me thinking. Why do people do that? I don’t understand the logic. Why would you badge your car to make people think [...]

Chris Moyles is a wanker

It’s all over the news, Radio 1 “DJ” Chris Moyles has been ranting about not being paid for the last two months. Perfectly understandable, none of us would be happy about that. But was there any need to do it live on air? Surely a phone call to HR would have been sufficient? It’s dead [...]

A new arrival on Age and Annie’s ever expanding blog, Zombie is here. Having been a long term reader of this blog I thought it was time for a change, luckily Age agreed and here I am writing my very first post. Hopefully I won’t bore anyone too much nor offend them like Kodabar. Expect [...]

The Lord’s Wrath – you’re boned!

In light of this poster and Kodabar’s recent commentary on Muslims, I’d say we’re all boned. Especially if this is old testament wrath – you, the painful, unforgiving, frogs up your bum kind. No one wants that. So be a good boy/girl, go to church and sign his praises or there will be trouble.* *I’m [...]

This isn’t happiness

This isn’t happiness.

Technology has come a long way over the years. So much so, if you had a time machine and used it to travel back a few decades (or centuries) taking new technologies with you – you’d probably be burned at a stake or weighted down and thrown in a river for practising Witchcraft.  The fact that they [...]

If I spoke, would you listen?

3 years ago I created a gaming community. Not something I ever thought I’d do in all honesty. My original aims were honest and open. I wanted to create a friendly, gentlemanly gaming community full of nice people. I would give everyone the power to admin the gaming servers and moderate the forum, sharing the [...]

If I was a pigeon, life would be a breeze

If I was a pigeon, life would be a breeze. I’d eat and sleep, poo on peoples cars and waddle up and down the High Street in straight lines nodding my head as if it were attached to my feet. Content with the simplicity of my existence. I’d spend care free days, stalking and putting [...]
