Starting from Scratch

Brothers! Sisters! Welcome! Welcome back to our humble little corner of the internet where we wonder what on earth we’re doing with our lives whilst we drink ourselves silly in far flung corners of this damp little isle under the pretence of watching shit football.

Perhaps the ballyhoo […]

What World Cup?

You can tell who the glory hunters are. A bit of a dip in from and the usual Gandermonium scribe disappears to leave yours truly lumbered with another head scratching session, ie. where do I go with this? Then of course, Kebab Belly Bob is a no show too. Some family bollocks to attend – […]
