The news has been full of this Scottish independence thing…what is it with people these days…we are a small island…LET’S GET ON WITH EACH OTHER!!...O.K. the English once marched on Scotland…and Wales…and Ireland…I’M SORRY!!! But I WASN’T AROUND AT THE TIME!!!...Get over it….I have absolutely nothing against my fellow countrymen but when I wander into the odd pub in Wales I get the feeling I am an illegal alien. It all seems like one way traffic…it’s always the English who are the bad guys. The Scots want to go it alone BUT keep the Bank of England…and the Queen etc…come on guys give us a break….if they get this it will be their biggest mistake I feel.
I also get a bit annoyed at the rugby and football events when Wales Scotland and Ireland sing their own anthem…and we sing the NATIONAL one….which is also theirs….I think we should sing Land of Hope and Glory….or even better Googi The Liverpool Duck?
”I’m a celebrity get me out of here” is on tele EVERY night…with Ant and Dec trying to convince us that it’s all gonna kick off any minute….I’m not quite sure what we (including me) are turning into when we sit and watch celebrities sleeping and sunbathing and getting 80 GRAND for their efforts….….is that paint dry yet?
There is a big shortage of male primary teachers in the country….in our day it was mostly men…but then again if your teacher got hold of your arm in them days he wasn’t faced with parents kicking doors down screaming paedophile!!.....what do they expect….you can’t speak to a kid these days without becoming a major suspect…..so why apply for a job with so much hassle?….…..it’s the parents who need educating not the kids.
Because the television is so bad I have decided to include “Netflix” to my TV package……this gives me the opportunity to have hundreds of films at my disposal…and do you know what…try and find a decent one!!….they seem to have lost the art of making decent films these days…it’s all sci-fi…and vampires….and special effects..with NO story…the trend seems to be to mumble their way through a two and a half hour film with a 10 minute plot……what happened to ACTING?...and enunciation?...and the problem is you get so far into a film that you are FORCED to see it through…and 99% of the time it’s a complete load of rubbish…..come back all you Hollywood Greats!!....or am I getting old?
How do you know when Christmas is coming?....out come the CDs of all the same old played out songs….PLEASE someone give us a decent NEW one if we MUST be subjected to them. Every shop and supermarket has the same old stuff every year droning away in the background….I HATE Christmas songs….but at least I expect “stars” to give us original ones instead of regurgitating all the old stuff. Just use the Slade one and bin all the others…Cliff…Bing…even Buble…..for goodness sake……
