The Talking Clock didn't bother chiming for a week as we didn't spot anything in the news that we wanted to talk about. So, a week has passed. As we go into another Sunday newspaper round-up, will anything have changed in the space of a week?
No. The Sunday Times reports that there's a chain of letters demonstrating that the release of the Libyan bloke who'd been jailed for the Lockerbie horror DID have British national interest motivating it... and that interest, according to the newspaper, was oil.
No. MPs from the House of Snouts are apparently still whining and moaning and groaning and claiming victim status over reforms of their expenses following the scandal exposed by the Telegraph. And it's the Sunday Telegraph listing the trough-lovers' latest protestations of being hard done by.
No. There's still no-one who likes Gormless. But praise goes to the young soldier who confronted Gormless about the fact our boys have to pay tax while out in Afghanistan fighting ZaNuLiebour's war on photographers and trainspotters. The Mail on Sunday has an interesting article revealing how much our brave boys get paid. It's about £20,000 apparently. And when The Talking Clock goes to work each day, we see plenty of people in ties and suits who must earn that amount in a week for just gambling with other people's money. Strange old world.
Yes. We have the paparazzi. Jet-skis. Bikinis. St. Tropez. Romance. But this isn't the wonderful Diana, Princess of Wales. It's former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell. The News of the World pays homage to Geri's derrière.
And that's about all we could find which we wanted to comment on.
Still, at least we're not moaning about the state of the world. Isn't life that little bit nicer with all the politicians on holiday?
