So, the wheel fell off this plane and even though passengers saw it drop off, no-one thought to report it?! Link – bbc.co.uk/news Read more →

So, after possibly the worst accident in many years here in the UK there’s a lot being said about what could have caused the crash on the M5. It’s interesting to see many news channels saying that a “distraction” could have caused the multiple pile-up. With 7 confirmed dead I don’t really want to say too much, but perhaps continually… Read more →

Some bad stuff is happening in Greece. Strangely all the TV networks here in the UK seem to be talking to the same Greek MP… I wonder why Eva Kaili is always first on the list ;) Read more →

OK. Let’s get personal for a moment. When I was young I used to love sweets. Heck, scratch that… I still loves sweets. Who doesn’t ? I ate a few too many sweets. Lots.
