Why it’s v v sad that we don’t talk anymore
Stephen Fry is considering leaving Twitter, following an unpleasant spat with

How Royal Mail bosses have failed to deliver ...
Tuesday, 20 October 2009
Much to my surprise I find myself - like Ye Olde Socialiste Worker down at

Security stripping more than our rights
Tuesday, 20 October 2009
We all know that modern airport travel is a nightmare. Not only do we have to arrive hours before flight time, but there's check-in (no, I didn't let a complete stranger pack my bag, thanks), endless security, the plastic bags inside a pingpong ball, those little trays for your keys, mobile, belt, old bus tickets and bits of fluff. Then, there's the inevitable embarrassment of the pat down.

Why women like Christine tell white lies over their age
Tuesday, 22 September 2009
So, our own Christine Bleakley is revealed by the Press to be - shock, horror - not 29 as she claims but 30. The revelation is set to rock absolutely no one to their foundations. Governments will not fall, the war will not stop in Afghanistan and the impasse at the Stormont Executive is unlikely to end.
