Precisely.
Precisely.I read A J Cronin's excellent novel The Citadel a while ago and it had a forward by Adam Kaye hyping it as the inspiration for the NHS and basically going off about how perfect and wonderful the NHS is and how heroic everyone (heavily implied him especially) involved is.
The Citadel was written by a doctor in the 1930s and it criticised the state of medical provision in the UK in those days and some cite it as inspiration for the NHS.
BUT, what Kaye seems to miss is that Cronin also criticises the bloated, inefficient bureaucracy of many government bodies which is heavily present in the NHS today, as well as the exact sort of self important arsehole Kaye himself is!
this is amazingThis is from Popbitch, made me laugh
Noted spoon-botherer Uri Geller waded into geopolitical affairs this week, telling Putin he’d use his mind-powers to foil any nuclear attack Russia launches – a threat that must have sent some serious shivers down spines at the Kremlin.
How does Uri do it? A reader explains:
“I spent a fascinating afternoon at Uri’s house once. I had learned how he bends spoons – he just bends them really quickly while you’re not looking, relying on the fact that you don’t think spoons are easy to bend but they are, then just pretends to do all the rubbing stuff while guffing on about molecules.
“So I brought a notably thick Ikea teaspoon for him to bend and was determined never to look away from him for a second. For a while it worked. He got super frustrated as he pretend massaged the spoon. Then, when it was getting really awkward, he slammed his hand down on my shoulder and shouted, ‘ARE YOU CLOSER TO YOUR MOTHER OR YOUR FATHER?’ which totally caught me and meant I lost attention for a second, so he got away with it.”
And there was me for all those years thinking he was genuine….said nobody ever!this is amazing
uri “don’t look at me, look over there!” geller - genius.
this is brilliant! I attended a wedding where they had some magician skulking about between the ceremony and the meal, bending spoons and shit. He could have got away with anything as we were too busy trying to get the attention of the waiters with the fizz.This is from Popbitch, made me laugh

Oh my lord, I'm in love with the guy even now as he's gotten older I first saw him in 1988 in Stormy Monday I thought who's this gorgeous guy so I followed his career I was 18 in 88.I have never seen the appeal of Sean Bean, physically or as an actor.
And bloody rich! He has made a lot of money being barmyUri Gellar is absolutely barmy!
Could be Abigail Cruttenden.Melanie Hill?
This is sad actually. He gave up football (when he failed), gave up photography (when he failed) and has now apparently found his passion making beans on toast. I think the Beckhams have done a pretty shit job of raising their kids to have fulfilling lives.
Brooklyn Beckham quit football as it was difficult to live up to David
The budding chef, 23, previoiusly played in Arsenal's youth academy but decided to give up the sport when the club released him at 16.www.dailymail.co.uk
I think he's very serious about Olivia, I don't know why but thats the vibe I get.What happens when Harry dumps her for his next girlfriend/boyfriend? It’s not fair on the children at all.
Absolute madness.And bloody rich! He has made a lot of money being barmy
If I remember rightly that was a fake relationship put together by their PR people. They were just showing their faces at things the press would be at but had no relationship beyond boosting each other’s profiles.Remember David Copperfield and Claudia Schiffer?
WTF was THAT all about
Uri Gellar is absolutely barmy!
i always thought that too! didn’t they sue a magazine for saying so?If I remember rightly that was a fake relationship put together by their PR people. They were just showing their faces at things the press would be at but had no relationship beyond boosting each other’s profiles.
Late to this but you've absolutely nailed it. Local here too. I'd struggle through thoughHe's a local lad to where I work. Thing is I imagine shagging him would be a bit like 'get here, you dirty mare, get your gob round it' and that just doesnt do it for me
same - and i know it’s technically not a huge gap, but a 33 year old man “dating” a 21 year old gives me the ick.Max George and Maisie Smith spotted snogging on a budget flight to Crete in the papers. I wonder how long they have been shagging for ? He split up with Stacey 5 minutes ago didn't he give Michelle an STD? I'm predicting it will last 6 months.
On the Louis Theroux meeting Max Clifford he was responsible for the fauxmance - Claudia loved herself, David is gay (although see he's married on Wiki). It's a really interesting ep. https://www.dailymotion.com/embed/video/x6bjy1nRemember David Copperfield and Claudia Schiffer?

She could do so much better! He’s vile.Max George and Maisie Smith spotted snogging on a budget flight to Crete in the papers. I wonder how long they have been shagging for ? He split up with Stacey 5 minutes ago didn't he give Michelle an STD? I'm predicting it will last 6 months.
