Well I did say I'd make excuses.....

Okay, okay, still not ready with the New York posts. I've been really busy, like, with, um, work and, sleeping, and, um, football and, um, sleeping and stuff.

But in a break from boringly hilarious holiday posts I thought I'd share with you a few stories from my favourite satirical website:

In a week (or so) when a senior anti-terrorist policeman had to resign for letting a photographer see the entire TOP SECRET agenda for his briefing to the cabinet, and subsequently 11 men were seized ahead of schedule by armed cops, interrogated and then released without charge and deported by government officials who refuse to admit that the entire government, police and intelligence community are, in fact, 'retards' - this

In a week where the government admitted to having to borrow £175bn (that's billion, and I hope it's a nice american billion of 1,000,000,000 and not an english billion of 1,000,000,000,000) a year for the next five years just to pay off the debt run up this year - this

And as an aside, I'm buying one of these bad boys :)
