.The Jimmy Savile squad have been in action again and have arrested Bill Roache who plays Ken Barlowe in Coronation Street…he’s 81 now…..it’s for alleged sexual activity with a 15 year old girl in 1967…at this point in time he hasn’t been charged so why is it all over the media…the “victim” gets total anonymity so why not the alleged “criminal”….no matter what happens now his life is in ruins…very strange….and Stuart Hall who is now 83 was recently arrested and plastered all over the news..however he has ADMITTED to sexual behaviour back in the day with girls ranging from 9 to 18…..this is all bad stuff but let’s hear about it after the case is tried eh?

There is a move afoot to give prisoners a hard time….torture?..no…they are taking their satellite TVs off them….AND making them wear prison uniforms until they behave themselves….and if they cause trouble they will NOT be allowed to play snooker….whatever happened to bread and water?..................On the subject of the law the spinning sign outside Scotland Yard has been moved 15 feet for whatever reason….same sign – different location….this major job has cost 16 grand…I know a guy who could have done it for 50 quid !!!.....even the police can get ripped off….again we are not informed as to how this amount is arrived at…but never mind…just take it out of our tax.

Amir Kahn has been on the tele talking about his career and has introduced his young brother to the world (he has just won his first pro fight)…what a nice pair of lads and great role models…we need more of these kind of guys…and Ronnie O’Sullivan made me laugh….he says that he doesn’t enjoy snooker anymore and he had intended to pack it in but he has just entered the present tournament because he needs a few bob for his kids school fees…but this will be his last…a great shame for the game but he knows his own mind…I’m a big fan.

The United Kingdom Independent Party have done really well in the local elections…I think this is because everyone is sick of the present set up….but I have a feeling the success was more out of protest…I doubt if they will do much when the main event comes up….but I hope so…I like their line of thinking…..and Mr. Gove isn’t involved.

finally….I don’t know how true this is but it was on the news and in the papers so it MUST be true….there is going to be a reality show whereby contestants will win a ONE WAY TICKET to Mars….yep you heard right….the idea is they will be sent to Mars where they will set up a colony (I’m assuming inside a dome of some kind) and stay there….now this will cost 4 billion….up to now I think they have raised something like 50 thousand…so there’s a bit of a way to go…..and…wait for it…they have had 4000 applications…..at first I thought aye aye 1st of April….but no…….so get your name down quick…a one way ticket to oblivion.
