Trolls and dolls, especially those porcelain dolls. My brother brought home a troll from Denmark when I was about 12. I thought 'ooh, I hope it's one with pink hair and flashing eyes', unfortunately not...jeesus, IT is terrifying. It's made of dark oily wood and I think the hair is lambs wool...it i...

I have a wee Jimmy Saville story. In the days when Glassgow had a Marathon (or was it a half marathon?) part of the route would pass through Pollok. At this point the runners had reached the Braidcraft roundabout. Sir Jimmy was running past all of the lovely spectators when my friend (who we shall c...

Tobey Maguire and Keanu Reeves

I really think that both of these men are talking planks of wood. I wouldn't mind punching them in the fizzog. I think that a few hours of fist-on-face action would do them a world of good.

"I speak no english" never works we me now. Even if i use German or Italian... Bampots. You see, you have to say it in fluent English. It confuses them because clearly you can, even when you've told them you can't. I don't know if I've said this before, but the same goes when your say, 'I can't say...

Yes, that's true. Jakey's are poets, but they just don't know it...bah-da-boom!
