I don’t know if I’m getting old or I’m just turning really grumpy but I’m really starting to get hacked off with every day occurances in the news these days. In todays news there’s an article about some poor soul who got beaten to death on Halloween for no reason other than he was sticking up for his girlfriend who just had her costume hat taken from her and spat in.

Any decent fella, boyfriend of victim or not, would stand up for a lady and chow down some clown who thinks he’s “cool” by being a prick and ruining someone elses night, that’s, no doubt, a given. What is strange is how someone, or some people, think it is then OK to take one step further and beat a man to death for sticking up for his lady friend. Even these low-lives that clearly have less than half a brain cell can see the utter stupidity in such an act, so why do it?

Woooo, I always seem to start these things in the same way, I really must broaden my imagination.

This week has seen several issues being debated in the news, one of which being MP’s budgets of £24,000 for second homes they demand they not only deserve but require to do their job.  I’m no expert but I know a bucket fuckload of people that travel well over an hour every day and don’t require a second home in order to do their job, let alone get paid to furnish one.  These people are running the country with salaries in excess of £100,000 a year and they need help to do so?  Do they really deserve the job if they can’t budget their money and travel smarter.  Some of the items listed from various people’s budgets included a cleaner for £6,000 (come on lazy boy, mummy taught you how to clean), broken toilet seat repairs (no real wonder, fat bastard) and various other random shite.

So, I never actually made it back to Leicester yesterday but had to go back today to pick up my stuff, bit of a waste of time really.  Anyway, on my way there and back I had plenty of time to think about my next blog post, which was going to be, surprisingly enough, about driving (the M1, constant roadworks and people’s lack of ability) however, I’ve been sat here trying to find new people to follow on twitter and thinking of ways to get more people to follow me (one of which being to be more interesting! (difficult!)) and on one of the sites I was looking at, there was a silly flash banner game (the ones that tell you to shoot/hit something so many times, then it takes you to a website saying you’ve won), we all know they’re bollox and you don’t actually win anything but on the odd occasion I like to follow these links to see what they’re trying to fob people off with.
