Youth Centre's set to be dismembered by the coalition

Posted on 11:33am Tuesday 2nd November 2010

When you’re trapped in the bubble of academia enslaved in the monotonous routine of attributing a ‘grade’ to your name, you need a release. Something like ‘Economics’ for example is so painfully boring its like watching paint dry whilst being kicked in the crotch.

Snowdon and Welsh racism

Posted on 10:08pm Tuesday 5th October 2010

On Sunday 3rd of October about 50 of us including myself climbed mighty mount Snowdon for charity. As we arrived we endured the perilous steep sides of the mountain as well some Welsh racism. You’d think that’s a curious mix of dilemma’s to face, the culinary equivalent would probably be a beautiful soufflé garnished with lamb donor kebab.

Change the world

Posted on 10:40pm Thursday 30th September 2010

Modern day slavery in West Africa, race riots in India and floods in Pakistan. Just some of the recent international headlines coming out of the national media.

The shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interest and his are the same. Substitute hers for his and there you have the summary of what happened at Tuesday’s Council meeting. The Tory lambs returned to the fold so the council leader comfortably won the vote of confidence. I am reminded of the proverb “Who makes himself a sheep will be eaten by the wolves”.
