Minor amounts of lack of cold, major amounts of atmospheric
movement, middling amounts of skywater and bugger all solar activity at the
Castle this morn.
The painty thing on vertical and horizontal surfaces is
finally over, everything has been cleaned with my super-duper steam thingy
(which is really good at getting paint out of carpets) and all the do-dahs have
been put back in place, time to have a “Dave” chillax...
And Blogger has decided it doesn't want to play nicely this Thurday morn.
The Bercow tweeter is apparently in a bit of a huff because
he allegedly tried to block the publication of details of MPs' expenses
payments which could show if they are renting taxpayer-funded homes to one
another.
According to the most intellectually challenged Dwarf doing
so would pose a security risk, and that publication of landlords' names
"could involve causing unwarranted damage and distress" to MPs.
A spokesman for Ipsa said: "We are committed to
transparency as is shown by our regular publication of all claims by all MPs.
We have a duty to balance that against the risk of compromising security."
Bollocks...
Last year Ryanair found itself in hot water with the
Advertising Standards Authority after their sexy staff stripped for a charity calendar, so they have
done it again.
Featuring 12 of Ryanair's real cabin crew stripped down to
swimmers or underwear, the girls of Ryanair cabin crew charity calendar 2013
aims to raise £100,000 for Polish charity TVN.
The 2012 calendar drew hundreds of complaints to the
Advertising Standards Authority. Most complained about the sexually suggestive
nature of the photographs after they were printed in an advertising campaign
run in a British national newspaper.
However, the ASA didn't like this and released a statement
saying: "We also considered that most readers would interpret these
images, in conjunction with the text 'Red hot fares & crew!!!' and the
names of the women, as linking female cabin crew with sexually suggestive
behaviour."
Ryanair found a simple solution - they pulled the ads but still sold the calendar
onboard their flights, which is what they looking to do again.
And
the problem is?
Apparently
someone in Downing Street has denied rumours of a feud between cats
belonging to the chancellor and prime minister after they were pictured
fighting.
George Osborne's Freya was photographed slugging David
Cameron's Larry with a nasty-looking left claw, the evidence being posted
on Twitter.
But the PM's spokeswoman insisted the two tabbies were able
to "co-exist".
She added that she would not "get into commenting on
the adventures of our feline friends".
A bit
like the Piss Poor Policies Millionaires Club Coalition then....
Accident-prone Dave’s are more likely to trip and hurt
themselves, pull muscles at work or cut themselves.
David is top of the nation’s bad luck league, as more men

Allegedly the unluckiest
male names are
1. David
2. James
3. Stephen
4. Andrew
5. Chris
6. Mohammed

No surprise there then, so if your name is Dave and you were spawned in 1989, stay in bed...
Manager of a Bupa care home, Lesley Weir, exposed herself to
two pensioners and boasted of enjoying 'unspeakable' sadomasochistic sex acts,
a hearing has been told.
Lesley Weir, who also bent a colleague over a desk to spank
him, faces being struck off.
She boasted of “unspeakable” bondage sessions and showed
colleagues marks on her breasts, buttocks and upper thighs during staff
briefings, the Nursing and Midwifery Council ruled.
Another former colleague at the Amerind Grove home, in
Ashton, Bristol, told the hearing that Ms Weir had showed off bruises on her
buttocks and breasts and talked of the “unspeakable things” she liked having
done to her.
Ms Weir had lifted her skirt at two pensioners as they
visited a friend at the home, the hearing was told. Terry Lewis, 76, said he
had complained that underwear belonging to their 93-year-old friend, who
suffered from dementia, had gone missing, to which Ms Weir replied that he
should be “on knicker inspection”.
She then told the man he could inspect her underwear first
“because I’m not wearing any”, before lifting her skirt.
The council must now decide whether her actions while
manager between February 2008 and August 2010 amounted to misconduct and
whether her fitness to practise is impaired.
You think?
And finally:
Damien Hirst has come under fire after it emerged that more
than 9,000 butterflies died as part of an art work in his latest exhibition.
Visitors to the exhibit at the Tate Modern in London
observed the insects close-up as they flew, rested, and fed on bowls of fruit.
Figures obtained from the Tate reveal that more than 9,000 butterflies died
during the 23 weeks that the exhibition was open. Each week it was replenished with approximately 400 live butterflies to replace those that died – some of them trodden underfoot, others injured when they landed on visitors’ clothing and were brushed off.
The exhibit used butterflies of the Owl and Heliconius species, which come from tropical regions and live for up to nine months in the wild. Those used in the exhibition are believed to have survived for between a few hours and several days.
Visitors saw the butterfly pupae pinned to white canvases while adult specimens flew freely around the rooms, feeding on flowers and sugar water as well as fruit.
The Tate’s description of In and Out of Love said “the
themes of life and death as well as beauty and horror are highlighted,
dualities that are prevalent in much of the artist’s work”.
Cruel bollocks...
And today’s thought:
Where’s Dopey gorn?

It really depends, to me, on whether they were coerced on pain of their jobs or they volunteered.
"Each week it was replenished with approximately 400 live butterflies"
He's getting idle. Isn't he supposed to cut them in half and stick them in a tank of formalin?
They don't look coerced James, all that free publicity and offers of other jobs seem to make them smile.
Some one aught to do the same to the Numpty AK.
