Why all this jargon leaves me feeling sick as a parrot
Monday, 21 May 2012
After Golfgate, let’s hope there are no scandals at the big event in Portrush next month, or it’ll be known as Opengate. Mind you, if there was a scandal, but it was cleared up quickly, it could be Open and Shut gate. (I’ll stop there, I’m running out of gates).

Hillary puts a brave face on it
Monday, 14 May 2012
Hillary Clinton has bared all! No, not shocking revelations about her love life or anything salacious. Her face. She’s appeared in public wearing glasses, with no make-up and with her hair pulled back in a scrunchie.

Here is one lesson that children won’t want to skip in our schools
Monday, 14 May 2012
I don’t have children, so maybe I can’t comment on what it’s like bringing them up these days.

Wouldn’t it be great if the only shots were in our coffee not knees?
Monday, 14 May 2012
Only in Northern Ireland would you hear a line like this on the television — “And later we ask, is it ever right for parents to bring their children to be shot by paramilitaries?”

Let’s put words into Nadine’s mouth
Monday, 30 April 2012
One of the downsides of our Big Brother-style lives now is that there’s less
need for Big Brother.

NoW hackers wouldn’t have got much news from my mobile
Monday, 30 April 2012
It’s a scandal and a disgrace and it should never have happened, but the phone
hacking by the News of the World is a great story.

Titanic won’t keep visitors coming if our heritage is reduced to rubble
Monday, 30 April 2012
A map of Belfast showing how much of our Victorian architecture has been
demolished in the last 60 years is shocking.

Jessie J finds out that music bosses won’t change their tune...
Monday, 23 April 2012
I know you’ll all be shocked and rivetted in equal measure when I tell you
that, according to an unauthorised biography, Jessie J is a lesbian and not
bisexual, as she has previously said.

Let’s switch off our ghoulish fascination with murderers now
Monday, 23 April 2012
I am currently working on a new show for the Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival
in Belfast in May, called The Ulster Kama Sutra. It’ll be a funny and
informative look at our attitudes to all things to do with sex, the body and
relationships in this part of the world.

Unlike the great ship itself, I suspect kids’ inflatable Titanic may sail again
Monday, 23 April 2012
Have you seen the inflatable Stonehenge that’s just been blown up in Scotland!

George is gay but he won’t start a war
Monday, 16 April 2012
What is people’s problem with others being gay? Seriously. A group in England
has been banned from putting posters on London buses which would imply that
gayness can be cured.

How sporting Darren showed what fair play is really all about
Monday, 16 April 2012
They were stirring words: “Yes, we are fighting for survival, but there comes
a time when you have to put your morals first.” Are these the words of a
pro-democracy activist, a revolutionary, a religious martyr?

Why has there been a big fuss over Titanic? The clue is in the name...
Monday, 16 April 2012
You’ve been there, seen it, bought the T-shirt and quite possibly hurled abuse
and objects at the local BBC coverage of all things Titanic by now.

Team Northern Ireland are really pulling out all the stops to promote this
place to the world as a tourist destination.

There’s no place like home... that’s just as well given the cost of petrol
Monday, 2 April 2012
Have you heard the expression Peak Oil? It refers to the time when oil
extraction reaches its highest point and then goes into terminal decline —
ie, we start running out.

An idea to save NHS that’s out of this world
Monday, 2 April 2012
Edwin Poots is missing a trick. When he next lifts his head from insulting his
Assembly colleagues, he might be interested in an idea for raising revenue

How prejudice can sometimes colour how we judge others

What is it about Bertie Ahern’s money saga that annoys you so much? Is it that
he was given huge sums, or that he didn’t account “truthfully” for where he
got them?

Not a matter to make light of really
Monday, 26 March 2012
The world is running out of helium gas. It’s not only used to fill party
balloons and make your voice sound like Joe Pasquale in tight trousers, its
more important uses include things like MRI scans.
