Looking back at 2018 in cartoons

It’s tradition at the end of a year to look back at the events that we’ve lived through and I thought this year that I would do so with the use of political cartoons. It’s amongst the finest of British traditions to poke fun at our leaders and pretty much anyone in authority in a… Continue reading Looking back at 2018 in cartoons

A holiday from hell for two Russian murderers!

I’ve been on my fair share of nightmare holidays.  Sank on the Nile, cars blown up, marooned in a live mine-field… that sort of thing but even I haven’t had quite as rough a time as Ruslan Boshirov and Alexander Petrov, Russia’s answer to Michael Palin or Levison Wood. Just two every day men, absolutely not… Continue reading A holiday from hell for two Russian murderers!

Lord North, the most unassuming man in a position of power ever!

One of the things I dislike most about the world is people who are boastful or prideful and this goes doubly for those who do so for very little reason whatsoever. I always find if anyone has to boast about anything then they aren’t really anything special at all.  The very best people have no… Continue reading Lord North, the most unassuming man in a position of power ever!

50 Top Grumbles From Working In An Office.

I don’t know about you but I used to hate working in an office.  There is a big piece of me that thinks that the modern day existence offered by working in an office job isn’t really much if any better than in the 19th century when we were virtual slaves to tyrannical mill owners.… Continue reading 50 Top Grumbles From Working In An Office.

A few weeks ago my new book, Straight From The Horse’s Mouth was released in Paperback and Kindle formats and I have been waiting for it to work its way through onto Apple iBooks.   As it is now live, I thought I would post up two of the 101 idioms that make up Straight… Continue reading Two choicest Idioms – Butter Up & As Mad As A Hatter

Politics might be serious but elections don’t have to be.

Politics is generally a serious profession, albeit one so often mired in lies, broken promises and unachievable policies.  General Elections are the one time we have a chance to change the government at a national level.  Whereas in most countries it is a matter of utmost importance and seriousness with some nations even banning even… Continue reading Politics might be serious but elections don’t have to be.

However, the drought is almost over with my next release around the corner. Straight From The… Continue reading Straight from the Horse’s Mouth – New Book – Coming Soon!
