Self-Defence

June 1, 2011 at 9:00 am

You wonder how his brief kept a straight face: A man accused of relieving himself on a station platform has denied he acted illegally because he was ‘urinating in self-defence’. Michael Jones, 50, allegedly attacked a police officer who tried to tell him off at Waterloo railway station, south London, […]

Parish News: Gibraltar Dockyard On Fire (Pt2)

May 31, 2011 at 10:21 pm

Live and burning on the Gibraltar Broadcasting Corporation right now! Compete with BFBS/Radio Gibraltar playing their usual late night selections from the 1980’s as an into-the-night overlay. Surreal. The first tank has now collapsed, the second is on fire and a third is being dowsed with water to keep it […]

Parish News: Gibraltar Dockyard On Fire

May 31, 2011 at 2:54 pm

Parish news maybe, but a major explosion where TheEye lives on the North Mole in Gibraltar. That’s the cruise liner Independence Of The Seas in the background. She has moved to the eastern side of the Rock now. (Luckily Dioclese is cruising the other end of the Med) As we have […]

Muslim Inventions

May 30, 2011 at 12:59 pm

The State Department in the US has a “1001 Muslim Inventions” program dedicated to praising the supposedly wonderful inventions by Muslims that make our everyday lives oh-so-much easier.

It’s here again…the regular Gibraltar meet-up for bloggers TheEye and St.Crispin. Efforts to get the other AllSeeingEye contributors Max and David Vance here are ongoing – hopefully next time, guys?

For those of you that haven’t had your fill of all things Ryan Giggs in the last few weeks. The billboard is priceless…

Awful Timing

May 24, 2011 at 7:30 am

Is this the worst timing in the history of journalism? Probably not, but in the history of the Yorkshire Post it’s got to be damn close. Dated yesterday…oh yes…yesterday. Indeedy. The best bits of the article are worth quoting because it’s bound to get pulled. RYAN Giggs is widely seen […]

Obama Is In Town (Pt2)

May 24, 2011 at 4:12 am

From the previous post “There was a reason that TheEye began this post. Can’t remember what it was now…“ Ah yes! That was it! Handing out the Obama Buzzword Bingo cards. When Obama stands up in Westminster Hall, have your card at the ready. It’s a drinking game, so charge […]
