I recently attended a rather useless networking event in the North East which shall remain unidentified. I have previously resisted all attempts to lure me to any “networking” events. I always imagine them to be a bad version of The Office with minor players handing out business cards left right and centre. A relative who [...]

Yet again, its time for another hot products sweep, as we track down what people are searching for, discovering and buying across our world wide network of terrific shopability. As the seasons change more discernibly from winter into spring/summer, it is perhaps unsurprising that all of a sudden on the TV and in adverts its [...]

The logical conclusion of self-help books is the latest title I tracked down, which is all about how to cope with being ginger. The book, entitled “The Ginger Survival Guide” claims, in its tag-line, to be “Everything a red-head needs to cope in a gingerist world“.

We’ve gone a bit mental about books and reading recently.
Not content with writing a ridiculous amount of information for people to read all day long while they’re on the internet, and writing books for those moments when they’re not, we’ve also added a few ways for people all over the world to get hold of [...]

A couple of months ago, we featured the “Eulogy Song” from Chaser’s War on Everything which suggests that even bastards become heroes after death. While I’m in no way saying that Jeremy Beadle was a bastard, not at all, it was funny to [...]

I don’t have a television.
The main reason for this is the fact that I don’t want to buy a television license.
Today, I felt fully vindicated in this decision when, after visiting the BBC website to see if they had any news, I ended up on their I-Player website, and decided to watch the first episode [...]

As a fair chunk of people have been coming to this site looking for “Rugby Jokes” - following the few poor efforts I had made during the 2007 Rugby World Cup, I have decided to give these people what they are so clearly looking for: the most comprehensive collection of funny rugby jokes available anywhere [...]

It is funny how words become written into political speeches these days, and enter the vernacular without so much as a passing glance, or questioning look from most of us.
