The Cricket Test.
(Preview)
I am a big fan of test cricket but over the last ten years or so I have become fairly disappointed with the attitude of some of our test cricketers. I thought that would have changed after that embarrassing cheating at Newlands in South Africa and the appointment of a new captain but that was not to be. It s...

What Gives!
(Preview)
I remember when I was growing up that if I went on a trip or heard about someone's travels then it was described as a "journey". Now it seems that everything someone does in life has to be described as a "journey". We don't go on a diet anymore, we embark on a journey of weight loss. We don't get over a tragedy...

We no longer have a lock down, it must be classified as "brutal". Fines are no longer imposed, they are "slapped on". We are no l...
