"I have sinned"

"Disgraced former Co-op Bank chairman Paul Flowers has spoken for the first time since his arrest over drugs allegations, saying: "I have sinned."

The Methodist minister, who stepped down from the bank last summer, told BBC Newsnight some of his "frailties" had been exposed in the public domain.

He was arrested last November after the Mail on Sunday published footage showing him allegedly buying drugs.

Mr Flowers, 63, said the last few months had at times been "hellish"." -- Daily Mail website

I bet it was "hellish". How the hell did this idiot end up being the chairman of a bank? How did they advertise the job? "Wanted druggee vicar to lead multi billion pound bank"

Ridiculous.

Rant over.

Every spaceship ever?


I'm not convinced this picture shows every spaceship ever... but it's quite impressive nonetheless!

Serco and G4S still get the contracts

I know I keep ranting about this but I have just read an article in the Sunday Times about Serco and G4S which reports that despite a temporary ban imposed on them for deliberately and illegally ripping off the taxpayer they have clawed themselves back into the government's good books and are winning outsourcing contracts again.

And the thing is both companies are still being investigated for serious fraud.

It makes you wonder if there is some heavy duty bribery going on... doesn't it?

Rant over.

Dodgy Japs!


"A new miniskirt stewardess uniform for a Japanese airline that 'barely covers' female airline staff has been condemned by a cabin crew union.

Skymark's royal blue outfit was launched last week and the length of the dress has drawn criticism with the Japan Federation of Cabin Attendants saying it is unsuitable for the work performed by cabin attendants, which includes stretching high up and kneeling down." -- Daily Mail website


Ha ha... You can always trust the Japs to come up with something pervy!

Thor: The Dark World

I thought I would post a photo of Tom Hiddleston as Loki rather than anyone else because it is Tom Hiddleston who eclipses everyone who appears in this film.

To be quite honest I felt disappointed with this second effort in the Thor series. Don't get me wrong it is fairly entertaining but nothing particularly special. Christopher Eccleston as the main baddie is completely bland and as for Natalie Portman... what a wet weekend!

The attack on Asgard reminded me a lot of the prequel Star Wars films especially the shape of the dark elf spaceships.

Could have been a lot better.

Rating: 6/10

Doormats... useless!

Don't you just love it?

It's been peeing down with rain, the soles of your shoes are sodden and you come in through the front door.

You wipe your feet thoroughly and vigorously for 20 seconds or so. Take a few steps into your hallway and presto you've left a muddy trail of footprints.

Every bloody time!!

Rant over.

Ripper Street cancelled?

I have really enjoyed watching the first two series of Ripper Street. It is original, brilliantly acted, has gripping plotlines and fabulous characters. So why oh why does some f*cking retarded d*ckhead at the BBC suddenly decide to cancel it? Apparently because it's viewing figures dropped in comparison to the first series... and maybe that was because it was moved to a Monday and put up against I'm a Celebrity.

Smart move NOT.

Then shedloads of fans complain online and then Amazon save it and commission a third series. Which will be shown a few months later on BBC1.

So how come everyone sees things differently to the BBC ?

Rant over.

Godzilla 2014 is sequel to original 1954 Godzilla

Following on from my earlier post I've just watched the trailer to the new Godzilla film and I must say I was impressed. Playing it straight they reference the original 1954 film... so it looks like we are getting a direct sequel.

Smart move!

"Would you buy a used car from this man?"... How embarrassing for you Chris Moyles


No I certainly wouldn't! So this unpleasant arrogant loudmouthed northerner who used to talk sh*te inbetween records on the radio and was paid £700,000 pa by the BBC has been caught trying to avoid paying tax. He also requested that he retained his anonymity during the case but fortunately the judge denied him that advantage.

What p*sses me off is how incredibly wealthy people like Moyles believe they shouldn't pay tax and the rest of us should... it's not as if he can't afford it.

FAT GREEDY BASTARD... and I hope your pathetic career is f*cked!

Rant over.

Guardians of the Galaxy

Another film I'm not too sure about. Either Marvel are very arrogant in believing a group of comic book characters most people have never heard of are going to be a huge success or it is a stroke of pure genius... we'll see!
