The Skuttlebutt: March 2011
http://theskuttlebutt.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 23 March 2011. Receiving a Sporting OchoCinco. Fancies himself as a footballer. Well, we all know that, but I'm talking the other kind of football. The non-gridiron pursuit also known as soccer or, to be entirely accurate if a tad cliche, "the beautiful game". Apparently the publicity savvy Cincinnati Bengals and former Oregon State. He is currently involved in a four-day trial with Sporting Kansas City. OchoCinco himself does not yet have the answer. It was as difficult as I imagined it to be...

Burdons Blogspot: Day 4: Stretching the Mind
http://burdons.blogspot.com/2014/09/day-4-stretching-mind.html
Day 4: Stretching the Mind. I have rarely felt, since becoming a Mother, that my intellect has really been challenged. There has been plenty of challenges, and problem solving, and learning, and reading and other things, but nothing that has made me feel like I really had to work to understand it. The result is feeling very unstretched and to be honest quite wasted. September 28, 2014 at 10:29 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What Comes Next, Helen?

The Skuttlebutt: UNITED END ARSENAL’S FA CUP QUEST
http://theskuttlebutt.blogspot.com/2011/03/united-end-arsenals-fa-cup-quest.html
Saturday, 12 March 2011. UNITED END ARSENAL’S FA CUP QUEST. Manchester United turned the screw on Arsenal with a decisive 2-0 victory in the FA Cup quarter-final at Old Trafford tonight, a result that sent the Gunners crashing out of a third major competition in a fortnight following a Carling Cup Final loss to Birmingham and Champions’ League defeat at the hands of Barcelona. In the absence of Cesc Fabregas, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger looked to the artisan Jack Wilshere to pull the strings and the Engla...

The Skuttlebutt: Primal recognition
http://theskuttlebutt.blogspot.com/2010/03/primal-recognition.html
Tuesday, 2 March 2010. Saturday was quite eventful in its way. Not only did my wife and I march to protest against cutbacks being imposed at our local hospital, we also dropped into Starbucks for a hot chocolate. Okay, so in and of itself, going to Starbucks is not in any way cool. But Starbucks, Highbury Corner branch, at 11.45am on this particular February morning was the exception. Almost ran me down on his bicycle outside the National Gallery or when the Queen. Gave me a dirty look at the Derby.

The Skuttlebutt: December 2009
http://theskuttlebutt.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 8 December 2009. The modern art of conceptual deception. Modern art is rubbish. Not all of it, just a lot of it. I realise that I'm sweeping a broad brush in making that infuriatingly general statement but after watching last night's BBC show. I can't help it. After so much grey, fudging, blurring, smoke and mirrors twaddle from the various wannabe Damien Hirsts and Tracey Emins, I feel the need to rail in simple black and white terms. Newspeak: British Art Now. Art and The Sixtie. In last night...

The Skuttlebutt: August 2010
http://theskuttlebutt.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, 19 August 2010. It was the Yorkshire Oaks today and oh, what a race we expected to see. Three crack distaffers. Sariska. Representing the cream of the older brigade, Snow Fairy. The queen of the current Classic crop. Match ups like that don't come along every year. It wasn't even a three horse race. Eight of them lined up on the Knavesmire, all fillies and mares. All in. Under starters orders. Gates open. They're off! It was three lengths at the line. It would have been more if Midday hadn'...
