Hey! Four Eyes!

I’m sure I saw something like this at a bus stop the other day.

Separated at Birth?

However England manager Capello has an even more striking lookalike. He’s Irish builder Michael McElinney

Clutching at Straws?

No it’s not a story about Jack Straw it’s about the next leader of the Labour Party. If yesterday’s speech to the Labour conference is anything to go by then Peter Mandelson is that man.
Previously any speeches by Mandy at conference would have been received in a similar way to a meat feast pizza at [...]

Best Man?

About twenty seven years ago I was asked to be best man at my friend’s wedding. We hit a snag because we were in business together, he was getting married in Malta and we realised couldn’t both be out of the country at the same time. Another friend deputised.

The Sons fans haven’t had much to cheer about this season so I think we’re entitled to a little bask in the glory before this week’s rather tricky visit of top team Stirling Albion.

The Right Honourable Smeato?

This is a political broadcast on behalf of The Jury Team

Proof

Enjoyed the two-monthly piss up whisky tasting club last night where we had an excellent presentation from Glenfarclas. I wrote about their cask strength Glenfarclas 105 last year. Last night as well as 105 we enjoyed the company’s 10 year old, 15 year old, 21 year old and 30 year old whiskies. The man from [...]

Peterhead 1 Dumbarton 2

Yes, at long last a league victory for the Sons. Thanks to my friend and BLFP correspondent Tomahawk Kid, scores were texted to me. I was going to try to make the trip but staff holidays meant I was stuck here.
When I heard that the home side had taken the lead I feared the worst. [...]
