Terribly good? Thunberg and Linekar are just terrible.

"Terribly good" or "Awfully good".

 
I do not understand these. The wonderfully erudite Stephen Fry uses them with alarming regularity. He's a national treasure, so it is said, which presumably means you can pay an admission fee to inspect his vowels.
I thought a national treasure was the likes of Stonehenge, where much to the Swedish Angy Bird's anger, as she jet-sets around the world from one environmental march to another, they have since brought in a hefty team of diesel JCB's to set the henges back one hour until spring.
Thunberg, like Gary Crisps (for those not familiar, the appalling Linekar of the BBC -  he has extracted millions of pounds out of Walker's (Lay's throughout the world) to become their ambassador for obesity and cholesterol), seems to have also become a latter-day expert on Gazan affairs. 
They both seem to hae a death wish by becoming involved in things they know less than absolutely nothing about, while at the same time demonstrating unbelievably high levels of immoral hypocrisy in relation to the environment.
Thunberg with her jet-setting from environmental meeting to environmental meeting, and the antsemitic alleged "green" Crispy with his 23mpg car.

Airport amusement

There is no doubt that airports can be quite amusing places. That is apart from being told by a burly security supervisor at the x-ray gate that thanks to the only contribution Yasser Arafat ever made to society, I had to remove my belt, shoes, watch and place my AK-47 in the tray provided. Watching people going around their travel ‘business’ in airports and on board the aircraft is hilarious. There are those who are plainly not very good at it, continually checking all manner of minutiae with the other members of the party. “Do we go to the gate?”, “Have we time for a beer?”, “I MUST get a pizza”. There are those who have plainly not done it much before and like their fellow travellers to be made fully aware of the exact opposite, as they point and gesture to the monitor shouting out their destination and boarding gate at every passing opportunity to one and all around them. There are those who think they are something special – despite the fact they are travelling via bu...

Are Camelot dim, dysfunctional, liars or just plain greedy?

There can be no denying that UK lottery operators Camelot are on to a good thing. Especially the overpaid management. They have been reaping the benefits of the franchise for years now - a franchise that in essence, has been licenced by the government to print money. However, I can't quite make up my mind whether the management of the Lotto are dim, dysfunctional, liars or just plain greedy, although the cynic in me answers the question when I consider the chief Executive of Camelot was complaining last year that the annual bonus on her not inconsiderable 7-figure salary had been reduced (conveniently forgetting her 18 year sojourn to date at Camelot has produced a pension we mere mortals can only dream about. How about the poor soldiers, CEO Dianne Thompson, who come back from the far-east minus a leg and have to legally fight for compensation that doesn't even touch what you earn less than a month? And they don't receive CBE's for their troubles either !). Irres...

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...
