Neanderthal Man?

Oop there in Liverpool, the 2008 ‘cultural Capital of Europe’ according to the European Commission, a young male was out and about with his lady.

He found himself surrounded by several young knuckle dragging males of Liverpudlian heritage, who tried to take his girlfriend away with them for – who knows what fate awaited her?

Outnumbered, he ran away and left her to fend for herself. He climbed over a high wall and rested a while on the swings in the local park. A ‘concerned resident’ saw him there, and naturally called the police – won’t ‘somebody think of the cheeldren’ – we can’t have young males hanging around the children’s swings!

The police arrived and instead of Taser-ing him – they shot him dead! We are not told what happened to his girl friend, she’s probably got a case pending against the local authority for failing to install rape alert buttons on every lamp post….

A sign of things to come? Or just an unfortunate incident in the Knowsley Safari Park?

Beats me how they could tell which one was the Baboon…something to do with him not having an electronic tag round his ankle?

Over the past four days days, Mr G has driven me around 3,000 kilometres (roughly 2,000 miles for the metrically challenged). One of his mad dashes to see something of interest to him! Enough said. We are fortunate in owning a much loved Volkswagen California. When we get tired, we turn it into a comfortable [...]

Back some 20 years ago, when the sun still shone in summer time, and young army lads only got beheaded in foreign places so there was no need for a focus group to tell the Prime Minister what to Tweet on the subject, a group of gay young middle aged blades got up one morning [...]

No, Ms Raccoon has no intention of shutting up – though that would be an equally popular request these days…. But several people have asked if I could creep into the man cave and take some pictures – this morning I was up before Mr G and managed to do just that. Here, in all [...]

It was late morning in the Porcument, and Peter the Pig was in mid-nap, dreaming of better times. Was it really only a few years ago the heroic Sir Stuart Bell had spent days and weeks touring the TV studios, explaining to the silly people why it was just not good enough that Pigs should only [...]
