I know - that's a really crap pun, but I got my fishing nets back. The guilty party had, it seems, simply slung them into the garden behind ours but they were near enough behind a shed (ironically enough) so I didn't see them until they were moved. I went round to get them this evening and it turns out the house owner is the same kind soul who, when they spotted the shed being broken into first time round, rang Plod and told them where to catch a tea leaf red-handed. Which they did.However, this chap told me this evening that the police couldn't...

I have just come back from a weekend away and after a long but comfortable drive I had had it in mind to write something about cars and such like. Sadly, when I got home I found out that our shed has been broken into for the second time in 3 months. Somehow, I no longer feel like talking about cars.Several things, apart from the obvious, piss me off about this. For a kick off, there are several other sheds in the gardens around mine, all of them just as accessible as mine and probably with more stuff in them so why was mine targeted? Not that...

Right now I'm far too busy being excited about my shiny new (well, newish) car to rant about anything or be serious so instead, might I direct you to a very funny website instead? I will just say that if you're easily offended or even slightly more hardened to naughty words than that, you might just find Cunts Corner a bit much. But it's fucking funny. No, really - it usually makes me laugh out loud and that's no mean feat I can tell you. I'd forgotten allabout this site until the other day and I can't for the life of me remember what brought it...

...a bit different. My regular readers (all three of you) have been subjected to some quite lengthy rants of late so here's a short post for you. I think this is called karma.Some amusing guff from someone who, it is safe to say, is not a PS3 fan.And finally, if you're a cat lover, you will probably find yourself secretly admitting to yourself that you really are like th...

For quite some time now I've been reading the Coppers Blog which, in case you're not aware, is written by a serving British police constable under the nom de plume of PC David Copperfield. I can't remember where I found out about it (probably The Register or something like that) but it struck a chord instantly. Maybe it was the fact that at last there was some evidence that there was still some common sense left at the front line of policing as opposed to the vacuous political posturing that oozes from the upper echelons of the police force, or...

...they just pretend they do. A few years ago, Sainsburys was doing very nicely. It had always been viewed as a slightly more superior supermarket than Tesco (although perhaps not quite as upmarket as Waitrose and, to some extent, Marks & Spencer) and all was rosy as the traditionally middle class market that Sainsburys attracted was affluent and willing to spend on premium products. But then it all started to go wrong. An incredibly stupid decision by Sainsburys back in November 2000 to outsource their IT to a large firm (Accenture) backfired...
