Seems I have not been keeping up with events because 2 weeks ago, the mother gave birth to a daughter. Only 24 hours after that special event, social services turned up with a court order to have the child taken in to care.

If you are wondering why it's been a bit quiet here, it's because I got stumped. I read an article about Paul Mason, the worlds largest man. I wanted to start by picking the article apart, discussing just how little sense it made.

I am always on the look out for stylish boots and shoes that will actually fit me. I don't mean to rattle on about calf fitting or problems with widths but getting hold of shoes and boots that fit, look nice and comfortable - is it really that difficult?
