TheEye would like to Hat-Tip The Croydonian for a marvellous headline: Israelis consider ground offensive in Gaza As he observes…was the ground grumpy? Angry? Depressed? Vaguely not amused? Unhappy to be there? Was sea or air preferable for a sparky conversation? It’s here. TheEye suspects that Israel probably had a […]

TheEye has observed that a blog called Falling Down has become aware of our non-corporeal existence and has alerted his readers to this fact. This may or may not be a disturbing occurrence. The blogger, who calls himself “The Screech” is quite blunt – if you don’t like swearing then […]

So our Prime Mentalist intends to address his grateful nation on New Year’s Day. If TheEye had hair it would be washing it. Or something. Eyebrows maybe. We are to be told by the One Eyed Son Of The Manse that his recession will test “the character” of the British […]

There’s a great article in the Independent on Sunday (and it’s not often you get to say that) about how a 2009 general election might be fought with the campaigning advertising that will be appearing on poster sites all over the country. The paper asked half a dozen top advertising […]

Despite being a non-coporeal being, TheEye appreciates the finer things in life, and regards Katherine Jenkins as an opera singer with very fine lungs.

He blogs rather than produces a dead-tree newsletter, which seems very sensible as the latest from […]

In an exercise in what might be regarded as rather poor taste, Estonia has published a 2009 calendar of WW2 recruitment posters for the the 20th (1st Estonian) Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS. The calendar sold out in three days and had to be reprinted. It has 12 reproductions […]

It would be hard to believe that most of TheEye’s regular readers are not frequent denizens of Komsomolskaya Pravda. So therefore it is only for passing blog visitors that one feels the need to relate the sorry tale (reported today) of a naked couple pulled from a freezing river after […]

TheEye wishes his family, his friends including his fellow contributor St Crispin; and all of the readers of this site – a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year (despite the worrying omens from the economic entrails). Christmas has once again been hijacked by the Politically Correct lobby and […]
