Newsboost – Ainsley’s alrightNews just in!
If true, and according to our sources it IS true, this will mean that West Yorkshire will be subject to the finest cuisine in years.
Plus also who doesn’t love Ainsley Harriott? He’s so popular he works at Cooplands and has his name on his uniform. What a guy.
Damn me for being 100 miles away.
Old tat? Yes please!How are you for gravel? Got enough?
Are you looking for a beautiful hand-made gift for a loved one?
Are you craving some more bits to fill up your cupboards, drawers and/or shed?
Free and affordable items are few and far between these days. Luckily there are mega chads still out there willing to part with their prized possessions for next to nothing, and sometimes nothing.
My local Facebook group has never let me down. Let me show you some of the treasures that have come up over the last month:
My favourite, by a mile and a half, has the be the one below because it makes me smile so much. I burst out laughing the first time I saw it:
The words, “whatever you see them as” will forever send me into tiny giggles. I’m considering writing them on the wall in the living room; it’s the new ‘live laugh love’.
Take a look at YOUR local Facebook group. Perhaps YOU’LL find something too.
YouTube Promo 3Hey guys, Face Uncle back to rock-k-k-k-k your world.
Yeah, let that hit you like a brick.
You know me, guys, I’m a pretty silly person when you get down to it. I’m known for my wacky sense of humour and I’m pretty much up for anything. Sometimes though you have to get serious. Sometimes you think of something and you can’t let it go because it means something.
Sometimes science needs a helping hand.
You don’t need me to tell you whether or not birds need lips but I’m hoping you’ll watch my video where we finally decide whether or not birds need lips.

Rescued by an old friendWhen we bought our house five years ago, we moved in to a former military town where all the army things were being steadily demolished and replaced with new housing estates. As part of this new utopian vision, we kept being told that there would be a new town centre, which would one day materialise on the big patch of derelict space in the middle of town five minutes’ walk from our new place.
Over the years we’ve kept hearing stories about all the brilliant things that will be there once they build it, putting a range of wonderful conveniences on our doorstep. But the big derelict space continued to be big, derelict and empty. Would we even live to see this fabled wonderland, this Eden of small town commerce?
Well, finally, things are changing. A couple of months ago work started to build the steel frames of the first building, which will be a big Sainsbury’s, soon to be surrounded by other things as part of a phased construction project. And in the last couple of weeks, with people and cranes and diggers on site, new signs have gone up to advertise the company building it. I couldn’t be more delighted. Look who it is!
As yet, though, no sign of their cufflinks or their children. I’ll keep looking.
Chris can’t organise a village fêteSomeone had to say something.
There we are, having a good ole friendly chat at the Winston when this Chris guy starts talking about some formal occasion he’s organising. Nice one, right?
Wrong. He’s got it all wrong. What should be an easy win with an open goal turns into an own goal which smells of bad eggs and then renames all the roads in England and Wales without telling him, and they’re super silly names too that you’ll never remember.
I get the impression he’s never been to a village fête, let alone sorted one out. Here’s all the information we have so far:
What he does have:
What he doesn’t have:
As you can see, there’s a lot of work that needs doing in a very short period of time. I’m also sure I’ve missed a few obvious ones there.
I would recommend the services of Kevin “been doing this 30 years, bruh” Hill because he’s been, well, you probably get the jist. The experience and expertise he can bring will be invaluable and will ensure that Chris and his village fête are quintessentially perfect in the eyes of everyone who attends. The eyes are all that matter.
I’ll bring a bag of pennies and the overwhelming optimism of a man who hasn’t watched the news for two decades.
Fancy pub checklistPubs all used to be more or less the same, back in the day. Dark brown furniture, brass rail along the bar, limited range of warm beers that were predominantly bitter and included something called “mild”, and the only food offering was pork scratchings.
Nowadays pubs come in a wide spectrum, from the old man boozer to the soft play family carvery. Most pubs serve food of some description. But every now and then you find a pub that is genuinely fancy.
How fancy? Well, now you can find out by scoring your pub against this helpful checklist.
YouTube Promo 2Hey guys, Face Uncle back to rock your world.
There was a pretty heated debate in the Discord channel about a week or so ago. I love it when you get passionate about things, guys, and I support everything you say 100%.
It inspired me to get productive.
Here’s a little teaser for my new video coming to you LIVE and FRESH at 4.00pm on Friday. Every Friday.
I dared myself to eat as much cornflakes as possible. It was pretty insane, guys, because you never know what’s gonna happen next! I hope you’ll turn up to find out.

Are you sure about that?Picture the scene.
It’s the year 2034. The future is finally here. All those exciting opportunities you’ve been waiting for are finally at your fingertips.
You’ve decided that now is the time to open that restaurant of your own you’ve been dreaming of. Years of working in menial jobs for awful bosses. You’ve saved some money, not enough to buy a business but for a deposit to convince the bank to loan you the rest to get you started.
You scout out a great location in and up and coming area. Plenty of footfall to ensure a healthy turn out in that first shaky year or two. Once the word gets out though you know you’ll have to turn people away, you’ll be that popular. You’ve got a killer menu lined up, stuff that people have never considered before, and you’ve also got the talent to back it up.
Everything is in place. Now, all you need is a memorable name to seal the deal in a wigwam.
