Bike Stuff The Isle of Man is in full swing. After Valmoto's sucess at the NWS200 the team skips over the water to the island for the famous road race. Moodie is already top of the tree and Anstey posted some very impressive times. Let's hope they get on the podium and continue to promote the good work both Triumph and Valmoto are doing. The local lad, Rutter, has pulled out of the race to concentrate on the British Superbike Footie Upson did well playing for England against South Africa. Rio Ferdie looks set to miss the next two games so Upson could take his place. The lad has done well and seems chuffed to be playing first team football and getting his England debut. Steal of the season in my opinion. Blues are being linked a number of players. Talk about Jeffers, Carroll and Dunn is interesting, but I always wait until you see the player sitting in the stands holding up the club shirt. Now that Wolves have been promoted and Sir Jack has told the world about his intention to spend, they'll be linked with just about every player under the Sun. 26 May 2003

Some stuff Towboat Some meerkats with their take on you Not posted much as I've been really busy. I got some exams next month and I really should do some work. Georgina is coming along and already grown out of her first clothes. The little madam has put on 2 pounds in 3 weeks and grown a couple of inches. She's much more alert now and starting to take an interest in her surroundings. A settled sleep pattern would be nice though :-) 18 May 2003
Surprise! Surprise! The Jessica Lynch story wasn't 100% accurate! "Never!" I hear you cry. US news reported that Private Lynch had been shot and stabbed. "What stabs wounds? What bullet wounds?" asked the Iraqi doctor who treated her. "She had wounds consistent with a car crash - broken leg, broken arm and a dislocated ankle. I didn't see any bullet wounds". No doubt a relative of Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf. It appears that Ms Lynch didn't need to be rescued after all. The Iraqis had agreed to hand her over to the US forces at an agreed time and location. The ambulance drove up to the check point, but the troops opened fire which forced the driver to do a u-turn back to the safety of unoccupied territority. When the US "special" (is that special as in "good" or special as in "Timmy is special and goes to a special school with other special kids?") forces stormed the building (a hospital, but let's ignore that bit) they met no resistance. But, it was all being taped for the folks back home (after they had been given some tips from the producer of BlackHawk Down), so they fired their guns, set off some grenades and shouted a lot to give the impression that this was a dramatic and heroic rescue. In fact, they could have just walked in, asked at reception, been taken to her room and wheeled her out. You will be surprised to hear that Jessica has no recollection of any of the events that took place. Now, about those gunshot wounds she suffered....... Catch the Worm Had a bad dream lately? ![]() Well done to Craig Jones in obtaining ValMoto's first pole of the season. The young lad did good. Full report. 17 May 2003
Well I never! Necrophilia is not illegal in the UK. But it soon could be. The Home Office's white paper says: "There is currently no law that covers sexual interference with human remains. Although there is no indication that such activity is anything but extremely rare, we believe that this behaviour is so deviant as to warrant the intervention of the criminal law." A new offence could carry a maximum penalty of two years - unless, of course, the defendant is also suspected of having killed their victim. Who says the Government doesn't protect the public? 15 May 2003
Grab yourself a bottle of beer or a glass of good wine, skin up a fat one if that's your thang, settle into your seat and take this in: Flashback 07 May 2003
Oh Shit I'm not usually worried about footie hooligans. I don't hang around with the "wrong sort" (apart from the occassional away game when my old mate Bluenose Paul invites me along just for old times sake and even then I wander off and catch up with him and his mates later), I don't use the known pubs and I don't hang about the train station wearing my "who wants it first" t-shirt ;-) But, for the first time in a long time, I am getting concerned about trouble at this weekends game against West Ham. Wet Ham and Blues aren't the best of buddies and when we send them down I'm sure they won't just shrug their shoulders and vow to be back soon. I've stumbled on this exclusive footage of "Blubber" Harris, Wet Ham's hardest and most notorious hooligan, getting himself in shape for the fun off the field. It scared the shit out of me and I might not go to the match. When you watch this, you too will decide to join me in a little boozer several miles away from St Andrews. Don't have nightmares.

Brumwatch nicked without shame from Rags. Little Georgina is growing everyday. I can't believe how strong she is. She's already pushing herself up when we put her on her belly. She's got her old man wrapped round her tiny little finger. She was crying. Despite my best efforts, she couldn't be consoled. I picked her up and put her across me and we got back into bed. Within seconds she was fast asleep and couldn't be disturbed. I did offer to change my first nappy the other day but my gagging reflex got the better of me. My step-mum (who is a white witch, I'm sure) copied a couple of pages froma book she has which sets out the characteristics of people born on a particular day. She shares her birthday with Saddam Hussein, James Monroe, Oskar Schindler, Odette Sanson, Jay Leno and Harper Lee amongst others. According to the book, she's going to be "capable of using her physical, emotional or pyschological prescence in an imposing if not intimidating way." And "attend to her personal appearance with great care." Great, she's going to cost me a fortune in clothes! For those into this witch stuff:- Numbers Ruled by the number 1. Typically individual, of a definite viewpoint and eager to rise to the top. Tarot The Magician. Symbolises intellect, communication information as well as magic. Pluses - diplomatic skills and shrewdness Negatives - lack of scruples and opportunism Health Robust constitution but vunerable to heart problems, high blood pressure or glandular imbalances. Other stuff:- A close call for a touring Brummie. At last, comics are taken seriously. I used to import and sell comics from the States and Japan. I got very tired of people saying "what, like the Beano?" or "but they're just for kids". Not an established art form, I grant you, but some of the art work is stunning and the stories are far darker and telling than most would imagine. Even the lovable camp Batman has a mean streak if you read the Millers Dark Knight books. 03 May 2003
Blues ![]() Tough one this. Newcastle are a strong side at home, even without Shearer. Blues are on a roll and Dugarry, who was fined £12,500 for spitting, is set to sign for BCFC. I think Bruce might give some of the fringe players a go to see how they get on. I've predicted a Blues loss 3-2. You never know, we might get more than 25 seconds on ITV's Premiershit. 02 May 2003
Some dodgy links Brum, it's not shit Hacker or spacker (in the worst possible taste) funky rot - so naff they couldn't even host the music! Slim Saddam For those of you who like the Little Ninjai, here's a trailer for the new production from the same guys karma kula 01 May 2003
