You can’t really miss the word naked can you? It’s one of those words that jump out and grab your eyeballs. NAKED. NAKED. NAKED. When I first heard about this in 2009 I laughed inside my head and I just had to go see it. Me and a friend organised a day out visiting...

Reading an excellent book about evolution called ‘Your Inner Fish‘ provided me with a much deeper appreciation of the evolution of life, at least up to the point where it crawls out of the water and starts living on land. However, what is sorely missing in the book is a presentation of how much we...

Sachin Tendulkar, with all the power of the bat and the pressure of 1.2bn Indians, finally got his 100th hundred. A relief for all no doubt. But surely the relief should have been for Sachin and not everyone else? The ‘Little Master’ knocked the record-breaking ton in the Asia Cup against Bangladesh, a game India...

EDL No More Mosques

  Who are the English Defence League (EDL)? Let me rephrase that. What are the EDL? They can’t possibly be human beings. My guess is that they are a bunch of robots, disguised as humans, created to oppose everyone who dares to mention the letters ‘M’ ‘U’ ‘S’ ‘L’ ‘I’ and ‘M’ as one word.  I’m...

Chris-Brown

I admit I used to be a Chris Brown fan. I loved the song “Forever”; I would sing and dance when the song came on the radio while I was driving. I recall being excited that The Office used Forever in Jim and Pam’s wedding. And then the news broke that Chris Brown had...

UniLad (temporarily closed down but due a relaunch at the end of the month) is an online magazine aimed at Uni lads. It turns the neanderthal thinking of lads into a handy site for young men attending universities. I’d say it’s a mix between Nuts type of magazine and the contents of my God Daughter’s...

  India is in the news again, for all the wrong reasons. No I’m not referring to the cricket teams defeat to Australia in the recent test matches. I’ll leave that to the cricketing experts. Neither am I referring to the 2G phone scandal that is rocking the nation. Something more sinister is happening,...

Do we need an honest & frank discussion about Race & Racism?

2011 came across as the year which dominated headlines surrounding ‘The Recession’. Now that we have stepped into 2012 (a year of imminent death, destruction and apocalypse apparently) discussion seems to be dominated about race. Is that how it will all end then?
