A change of fortunes

Of course, there had to be a match on both days of Canada Day Weekend instead of two CFL matches on Saturday. And where should it be played but in the nation’s capital?
    The winless Argonauts dominated the first half and returned a blocked field goal try from their end zone for a TD in the 3rd quarter. The Redblacks got to within 12 points but the Argos were not to be denied their first win and they put an end to Week 4's string of home victories.

Unexpected ending

Some observers think Serbia Smarmer is ageing visibly as his regime staggers from one humiliation to the next. Could it be that booted into touch with senile dementia before very long?

Benefits for Labour voters

No surprise that there is now a Two Tier benefits system on offer. Those getting the benefits now will get the same amount and future claimants (years hence?) will get less. Maybe. Unless this damages the Labour vote too much.

Just routine

Monday morning and the scammers are at it again. The young ‘lady’ was going on about my BT broadband connection. As I don’t have one, she had no chance.
    Maybe I should invest in an A.I. answer-phone, which will respond to the key phrase by keeping the scammer talking to waste as much of his/her time as possible.

\Oh, joy!

The bosses of the BMA are slobbering gleefully over being able to call walk-outs by doctors for the rest of the year over a 30% pay claim.
    This would be in line with their new motto: ‘First, do all the harm you can’.

But will it?

The country will be in crisis tomorrow (Monday) because it’s going to get a bit hot in London and the South-East. Maybe.
    Nobody here is expecting anything startling. We seem to be getting lots of weather of all sorts at the moment. It was trying to rain early on then the Sun came out for a while. Only to do a disappearing act again behind a solid overcast at irregular intervals.

What a let-down

Did Venice go up in riots and flames when the Amazon boss got married there on Friday? Not a mention of it on the news, as far as I recall. What a huge disappointment for the lady who was trying to talk up this scenario in the Daily Disaster.
    And who are the miserable gits going to beef about now that the wedding shindig is over and done with?
