I have a social disability. I am not a gossip (all the time) or a wallflower or a usurper or a space invader or a bigamist. It’s much more serious than that. I don’t like tea, and in polite English society this is about the worst crime you can commit. My best friend’s dad still refers to me as “the one who ...  Read the complete review

What would an avid motor racing enthusiast like me, who stood for years on end facing danger at the edge of the track, do for a holiday ?? Yes, rent a canal boat.

This year the election has been the worst one i've ever seen. They are normally bad but this year they have been worse. Normally you expect to see the usual 5 adverts on every lamp-post on the street.
