Hooray. Hooray. It's a jihadiholiday

Very depressing news. It would appear that some of the "uneducated masses" who have flocked to Syria on a 'Jihadiholiday' are less than impressed with the brutality of the IS regime and its management.

Leaving behind good honest regular meals such as Chicken Cottage and Subway (Halal) in favour of sweet and sour gravel and camel dung au lait is not going down too well.

Also, not being allowed to glue to facebook, instagram and twitter (there's the thing to do - bomb the region's phone masts into oblivion) 24 hours a day in favour of praising the local kebab shop Alah's Akbar is really not going down too well at all.

Plus, not being allowed lippie, having to wear a black bin-bag 24/7 and the only available TV being "Stars in their Semtex" , "The only way is Sharia", "Breaking Backs" and "I'm an Ayatollah get me out of here" is slightly aggravating some of the nice young female suicide bombers who miss EastEnders, Coronation Street and Open University courses on 'Jihadism for Dummies'.

Well, all I can say is they should have read Trip Advisor more closely.

Looked for the kite mark or the Michelin or AA reviews.

Or even checked that their camel hut and bombed-out building carried a recognised ISO standard.

And that their IS senior team is trained to the highest standards of people management.

A Season for all men

Well, we’re used to hearing about the Camping Season , which for Scouts runs from approximately 31st March to 31st October each year, although Graham Norton’s camping season lasts all year. Then there’s the Caravan Season , where Jeremy Clarkson spends six months with extremely high blood pressure as he tries to overtake them on the A38 in an excruciatingly expensive and completely unnecessary car. The Japanese have their Scientific Season, which was a series of sporadic weeks where they slaughtered endangered whales for scientific research, the results of which seem to be a closely guarded world-secret. This season now looks set, thanks to a group of spineless, land-locked countries threatened by the Land of the Rising Scientific Research with paying more for their Nintendos and PlayStations, to last until the final whale is wiped off the face of the oceans. I have written to the Japanese Embassy four times now seeking details of this research (email address info@l...

"Q". My name is Bond. Oh. not THAT Q.

I was sent a story today by a friend who knows my feelings on the subject - that is, about one of the consummately greatest of all British activities, namely, queuing. It seems some Danish Professor or other has come up with the theory that those who queue the longest should actually be served the last. He claims it makes purchasing something altogether more efficient and smooth through the idea of 'contra-queuing' (whatever the devil that may mean). 'Serve the people at the back of the queue first', he says, with profound wisdom. Altogether very professorial, albeit demonstrating a somewhat keen lack of understanding of the purchasing psyche. The Nobel Prize-chasing Prof suggests that if, for example, a popular entertainment act was to announce a tour, with tickets going on sale at 11am one morning, using the theory of 'contra-queuing', no one will want to be first to buy said tickets. So no one will turn up 14 months in advance and venues will...

Leeds Bradford Airport leads the way............

............................. for their rip-off Britain welcome to passengers. Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) continues its policy of extracting as much money as it can from its visiting captive audience with a new £6 charge for vehicles with more than 7 seats. The 'spokesman', who by now must be scarlet with embarrassment having to continually justify LBA's various daylight robbery methods says about the charge "they now have a dedicated lane with the space they need to operate safely." You have to hand it to LBA. They continually come up with some classic and great excuses to justify their substantial range of hidden passenger taxes. There is a £2 "fee" for delivering or collecting passengers 400m in front of the airport terminal. Great start to a holiday, getting soaked traipsing 400m to the terminal door in the often inclement Yorkshire weather (free drop off and less than a 50m walk under cover to the doors of Manchester Airport Terminal 2).
