Brendan

I do find Catholics in Britain and Ireland seem to be a lot more, well catholic than they are back in the old country. The guy who married us actually encouraged us to have the shortest, most light-hearted ceremony he could get away with.

You?re playing with the very existence of existence there, stop it. It frightens me.

Right what I?m going to need is a rifle, a sharp knife, garlic, rosemary, a few bottles of red wine and a very big pot.

Isn't replacing religion with another school of though that comes with its own pre-packaged philosophy and ideals all a bit pointless?

Yes. Named after the 18th century publican, and ancestor of Jah Lush, whose name was unmentionable but built his bar out of the remains of St Bernard. (edited twice coz I'm stupid)

Well there are of course ecological and ethical reasons for not having any people in this world at all. Except then there wouldn?t be any concepts like ecological or ethical*. So there wouldn?t be much point in not having any people so you may as well have them. Or maybe not, who knows? *Or reason or indeed concepts like concepts or using the term indeed to make yourself sound smart.

And sherbet balls gather terribly at the seams.

Some may say that if anything steadily increases at a rate significantly higher than inflation for a long period of time something is going to go tits up eventually.

Are they that band that sounds a bit like Wings?

The Irish have a national anthem? Blimey.

But they're just so cuddly wuddly.

On a positive note, Neanderthals enjoyed a broad menu. Which must have been nice for them.

What really gets my goat is when I get home from a hard day in the office and shnookie wookims is watching Sex in the City.

Rubbish. We?re doomed!

Dude you are like, sooooo gay.

I don?t mean to alarm anyone but everything is now fucked. Completely and utterly fucked. The scheming sociopaths who have been running Britain are doing their best to fuck it up even more so that its people are spread eagled, trousers down ready for the neo fascist who are soon to take power and oversee our brave new age of strangling corporate monopoly and curtailed, monitored personal freedom. America is fucked. Pakistan has exploded So has Israel. South Africa has taken one more major step towards becoming just another defunct, farcical African dictatorship. We could have all been redeemed by a great big underground tunnel that may have created a black hole and sucked the entire bang shoot into non-existence. Unfortunately it?s broken. And that?s all just from glancing at a few headlines.

Bollocks! Oh well, there's still most of Westminster I suppose.

I?ve seen them here. In fact there is one outside my office. I think that London pigeons are just ?ard.

So if you fall into the category of ?lazy people? like, oh let?s say someone like me perhaps, the FSA would be a pretty good place to look for your next job.

The News has a new album out?

There is a moral to this story. Go to the Castle or the CPT if you just fancy a no nonsense drink. They need our business anyway.

Coldplay! Coldplay? You mean that band that is like a trustafarian, who fancies itself a poet, whining to its therapist about how its life is so hard ever since its last girlfriend did one because she realised that she was pursuing a pointless relationship with a vacuous, talent less little fuckhole, set to elevator music?

We went for a drink there this weekend and quite liked it. The d?cor, while in the general style that is current for public houses, leans strongly towards the girly side of things. Which is fair enough as my wife quite rightly pointed out, girls like to eat and drink too. The food looked and smelled good and is obviously freshly prepared by a chef that does the menu on a daily basis. It is in what I believe is called something along the lines of, contemporary British gastro pubbyish. We didn?t stay for food though but that?s because we?re a couple of uncultured philistines.

Am I the only one to feel that the local cultural significance of the mural runs even deeper than is evident? Surely it is a direct historical reference to the fact that mind altering substances have been for sale in Peckham since the 18th century.

Or maybe it was sliceable ice cream that the Venetians did. Not sure how though, it's fucking hot on Venus.
