Countdown comedy

September 19th, 2007 · Comments

Hahaha! Brilliant. Most of you should be familiar with Jeremy “Bloated Sperm Whale” Mansfield´s vaguely entertaining show, A Word or 2, which is based on Carol Vorderman´s Countdown as broadcast in the UK. So most of you should appreciate the clip above. And particularly the one contestant´s closing comment. Maybe if Jeremy had smutted up [...]

Carcel El Inca, Ecuador

September 16th, 2007 · Comments

Had quite an interesting afternoon today. We went through to the women´s prison in Quito to visit an Irish girl who was supposedly locked up there for drug smuggling, only to discover that she was released a fair while back.

September 3rd, 2007 · Comments

God help us all. I think she needs to attend a few more diplomacy and oratory nightclasses at the George W Bush School For Spokespeople Who Can´t Read Good And Want to Do Other Things Good Too.
Priceless.

We´re no strangers to love…

September 3rd, 2007 · Comments

Click here to let Rick Astley chase away your Monday blues. He`s dynamite! With perfect hair. I´ve been in a bad mood because I lost my bank card to an ATM last night, but Rick made me grin with his slick moves, snappy style and dulcit tones. He warmed my heart a little. And [...]
