Wednesday 7th July 2010

Well Helloooooo Mid-week readers!! Welcome to another blog! If you haven't noticed, I've brought some Polish from ASDA this afternoon and I have had a clean up around here...This is the new space, where you'll find the daily blog now!

Now, have you ever wondered how the money gets to banks??? Well just so you know, it all comes by lorries!! Yep, people fill up lorries with coins and notes and send it to the banks...Seriously this is true...But one lorry, containing the money, had a problem the other day...A lorry carrying millions of euros in coins overturned and spilled its load. The people driving behind this lorry, thought it was their lucky day! The lorry's rear door popped open, shedding the precious cargo in the road, near Foggie, southern Italy. Piles of one and two euro coins were left scattered along the motorway...WOW!! I wish I was there now...Because my piggy bank is looking a bit empty. Before the police arrived, drivers stopped their cars and made off with at least 10,000 euros.

Police later closed the motorway to try to recover the money. The lorry, belonging to a security firm, was transporting £1.7m in coins from Cesena to Bari, distributing money from the Italian mint to banks. When you are on the motorway next, keep an eye out for their lorries...A questions now...Why the hell doesn't this ever happen in the UK?!?

BIG NEWS NOW...A scientist is New Zealand is pretty sure that fish can talk...Now nearly everything on this place talks...Cats meow, dogs woof...So fish must talk some how...I must put my ear up against the MTJR fish tank tonight! Lets hope one doesn't break wind!! Christ there are some weird Scientists about these days!! ...Oh, more news coming in...Its Kissing week...SOOOO, COME HERE LADIES!!

Are you feed up of hearing animals in the countryside farting and polluting the planet???? Well good news, scientists say that feeding curry to sheep could help save the planet - by reducing methane emissions. Woooohoooo!! Everyone worship the Curry! Researchers found that coriander and turmeric can reduce the amount of methane produced by sheep by up to 40%. Ooooh, just so you know, we spoke about this on the show last night...The spices, traditionally used in curry, were found to kill the "bad" bacteria in the animal's gut while allowing the "good" bacteria to flourish. So farmers, remember to stick some Curry in their tea tonight!!

Thursday 8th July

Howdy readers and welcome to another big blog!! Its Thursday afternoon which means the weekend is getting closer!! I can also touch it...

According to some people, GOD is the one that made the world and us...He also made weird animals...How about this for weird...A confused seagull is having something of an identity crisis - apparently believing that he is a cat. Yeah seriously!! This is true and this is what I mean WEIRD! Mr Pooh was adopted by June and Steve Grimwood after he fell down their chimney as a baby. Awwwwww! The couple discovered the soot-covered youngster sitting in their fireplace while investigating a strange rustling. Its a good job they never lit the fire...Otherwise, they're be singing..."Wooooooooooowooo! the bird is on Fire!"

At first they took the chick back outside, placing it on top of the roof of their home in Shoreham-by-Sea in West Sussex. However, it soon became apparent that Pooh's mother had abandoned him so they decided to hand rear him themselves. Mr Grimwood, 52, said the couple's three cats were extremely wary of the new arrival at first. However, he added, it wasn't long before Mr Pooh was happily eating cat food out of a bowl with them. Since then the now three-year-old gull has become firm friends with felines Mitzi, Gus and Henry. Well birds will eat anything...I was at the seaside once having a BBQ...A seagull came down a nicked my burger!! I wasn't impressed! I wonder if this seagull meows....Hmmmmmm!

Whats the weirdest thing you have done drunk??? I have done many things...But I don't want to go into too much detail...All I remember is some parts of my body getting cold! Anyway, an Iowa man ended up in jail after he was pulled over for driving on a motorway at night with no lights - on a lawn mower! WOW! There is nothing like cutting the lawn drunk...Apparently, thats how you get a garden to look like a football pitch! Robert Grimstad, 38, was allegedly driving all over Highway 17, near Des Moines, when he was stopped by sheriff's deputies. Ok...Maybe he didn't want to cut the lawn!

He told police officers that he was out on his six-speed lawn mower picking up cans out of community spirit. But officers smelt alcohol on his breath, gave him a blood test and charged him with drink driving, reports the Des Moines Register. Boone County Sheriff Ron Fehr says it's illegal in Iowa to drive any kind of motor vehicle anywhere in Iowa while drunk. Sheriff Fehr was unable to confirm how fast Grimstad was going: "I don't know," he said. "How fast can a lawn mower go?"

Big news coming in...Paul the Octopus who predicted Germany would loose the match last night against Spain, has been given Goverment Protection after some angry German supporters wanting to grill him and throw him in a paella...HAHA!! This is true!! I swear to death, I am not making this up!

Anyway my friends...Its time for my to sign off and say goodbye for another day!!

Friday 9th July

Happy Friday Earthlings! The weekend is here and the weather is meant to be nice for most places of the UK! Looks like my legs will be out once again tomorrow...I haven't had them out all week...There must be something wrong with me!

Love watching Corrie??? Love Snoop Dog??? Well here is something for you...Snoop Dogg could make a guest appearance on Coronation Street after begging his agent to get him a cameo part. The gangster rapper is an avid fan of the soap and has been watching it for 11 years...Well Well well! You learn someting new everyday! So there we go Snoop Dog fans, HE LOVES CORRIE!! Oh, if you are a fan of me...I love EASTENDERS!! Corrie makes me fall as sleep! Snoop said: "I had my agent reach out to them to see if they could try to get me on and they said they were interested so hopefully it might happen. It would be perfect for me to be on the show. I've got friends around the world who always put me up on things and turn me on to things. Eleven years ago one of my friends turned me on to it. I love the whole dynamic, the way it is put together, it is my world, it is something I could fall into."

Well, thats showbiz for you!!

Apparently, we are meant to have a hot weekend...But I don't think its going to be as hot as China...Because dozens of vehicles stuck to a road in heatwave-hit China after the tarmac melted in the hot sun. YEAH, so true! Tell you what...Its as if the cars are stuck to the road during rush hour! The road, in Zhengzhou, capital of Henan province, had just been resurfaced the previous day. It melted in 40C temperatures which saw the street surface temperature reach as high as 70C.

Vehicles including cars, buses, taxi cabs and ambulances began sticking to a 200m stretch of the road. Lets hope that doesn't happen here in the UK this weekend! Oh, plastic sheeting had to be laid as a temporary surface to get the traffic moving again. Motorist Lao Yang said his car seemed to get heavier and heavier as he drove along the street. So if it starts feeling like that when you are driving this weekend...The tarmac is melting!! So keep an eye out for that! But I don't think it will be that hot!

Spain is going to win that World Cup!! ...Well, thats what Paul the Psychic Octopus thinks! I better go and place some bets now...World Cup phenomenon Paul the octopus has predicted that Spain will beat Holland in Sunday's final. The psychic cephalopod was presented with two boxes containing mussels at the Sea Life centre in Oberhausen, the Spanish flag on one and the Dutch flag on the other. After lengthy consideration Paul snaffled the mussel from the tank bearing the Spanish flag. I would love to have Paul as a pet!!

Right then my friends...Thats it for today and for this week...The blog will return in the same place on Monday! Have a nice weekend you crazy people!

Monday 12th July

"...It's just another Manic Monday....ooooooooo...Wish it was Sunday...Lalala!!" - Sorry about...I thought I would start today's blog with a little happy song, as it is the lovely day that is MONDAY! How was your weekend?! I hope you had a good one...The weather was lovely!! I spent most of the weekend out in the garden doing some work...There is nothing better than getting your hands dirty! ...Hey, steady ladies!

BIG SHOWBIZ NEWS FIRST! This probably ISN'T true. It comes to us from Britain's very unreliable "News of the World" tabloid. But it's so AWESOME, I'm just going to convince myself to BELIEVE it's true. Because life will just be better if I do... MICHAEL JACKSON wanted so badly for his pet chimp Bubbles to talk that he actually considered having THROAT SURGERY performed on him...Yeah, I know! Michael consulted with doctors about an operation that would move Bubbles' larynx further down his throat. This would supposedly allow air to flow more freely so that Bubbles could produce the sounds necessary to form words. Well Well Well!! You learn something new everyday!

The doctors told Michael it was too risky, and probably wouldn't work anyway. But Michael still spent thousands of dollars over several years flying in ape experts to see if they could get Bubbles to talk without the surgery. La Toya says, quote, "Michael always wanted to know how to make Bubbles speak and talk." MJ, also showed his monkey thing, how to brush his teeth...Ooooook!

Summer is here...And an Edinburgh man is hoping to be sitting comfy after recreating the Chesterfield sofa in concrete as garden furniture. Steve Jones is looking to get his concrete collection on sale in garden centres by the end of the year. Niceeeeeeeee! I wonder if he has a TV too made from Concrete....Hmmmmmm...If he did, that would be SAD!

Anyway, He insists his concrete sofa is comfortable - and says it even comes with a 50p concrete coin stuck down the back of its cushions....HAHA! Great Joke that!! The hollow concrete couch is made by taking a mould from a genuine leather one and casting it into a single package in a week-long process. Mr Jones, is producing the unique sofas through his Edinburgh-based company Gray Concrete, along with business partner Jon Gray, 39. Right, now we know the name of the other nutter behind all of it...Mind you, it does sound GOOD, but odd!

Tuesday 13th July

Greetings my friends...Welcome to another BLOG!! Here is your fix for today...Soooo, whats been happening in 'Thin' World today...??? Hmmmmm, not a lot...Its been raining and me being stupid, I watered my hanging baskets this morning before the rain...Now thats a waste of water!!

I think Paul the Octopus is amazing...Even though he said England would lose that match against Germany! Anyway, Paul the 'psychic' octopus has retired from 'predicting' the outcome of football matches. I think he is feed up getting letters from people, saying they want to turn him into food! The mollusc successfully 'foresaw' the winners of eight games at this year's FIFA World Cup in South Africa by choosing a mussel from a jar emblazoned with the flag of the winning country in all of Germany's matches and the final between Spain and the Netherlands. On the other hand, is Paul old enough to retire??? A spokeswoman at the Sea Life Aquariam Tanja Munzig said: "Paul really enjoyed the attention, but now he is going to go back to his old job, entertaining visitors and putting a smile on the faces of the children." Lets hope the Children don't understand football...

There are some really sad people out there...Did you know, talking to yourself could get you into trouble...??? Well apparently, it can...Because a Santa Ana woman has been jailed for a year after sending herself hundreds of threatening text messages and blaming her ex-boyfriend and his sister-in-law. *Shocked Face* tut tut!! How rude and BAD! This woman, Jeanne Mundango Manunga, reported the texts to the police, leading to charges of criminal threats against those accused, with her sister-in-law being arrested on three occasions and spending a period of time in custody. I take that this lady doesn't lile her sister-in-law and her ex-boyfriend...

Manunga had bought a pre-paid mobile phone in the name of her boyfriend's sister-in-law in 2008 and sent herself the messages before reporting the incidents to three different police departments on at least 19 occasions, deputy district attorney Mena Guirguis said. The victims discovered the scheme after speaking to the salesman in the phone store, with a follow-up investigation showing that many of the texts were sent from positions near to Manunga's work or home. My nan always said to me that Mobile phones will get people into trouble!

Now, there is NOTHING LIKE letting it all hang out...The American Association of Nude Recreation will attempt to beat the Guinness World Record for skinny dipping this weekend. I bet there will be loads of people watching this event and saying: "Oh, he's small" and "I could use them for ice cream cones". The plan is to break the current record of 13,648 by 3,000 people. Now thats a lot of naked people...Carolyn Hawkins, spokeswoman for the association, told a news source: "The weather won't scare anyone off. People want to be a part of history. If anything, the current heatwave on the East Coast could help attract more participants." Mind you, I would do that...

Wednesday 14th July

Good Afternoon my wet friends...When I say that, I'm not saying that in a rude way...Its just been raining!! Argggg, this weather is rubbish!! Who is the one who nicked the sun??? Who ever it was, please return it!! Thanksssss! Right, welcome to the daily blog! It is Wednesday...We are now half way through the week! YAYA! I love Wednesdays! Back on air tonight from 7PM UK Time by the way!

I want to talk about food now...I like my food but something has been released in Tesco's today, and I would never want to try it! Introducing the Lasagne Sandwich!! The 'Lasandwich' boasts two slices of white bread filled with diced beef, a tomato and herb sauce and cooked pasta sheets together with a dressing made from cheddar, ricotta and mayonnaise. I put a tweet up on my twitter this morning saying I might try it, but loads of people have tweeted me back saying its horrible and smells sick...So that put me off!!

Its creator, food developer Laura Fagan, said: "The inspiration comes from my own student days and how certain foods could sometimes taste much better the next day - such as pizza, lasagne and even curry. Lasagne sandwiches were a favourite of mine back in student days and were really popular with all my mates at university." The sandwiches have been criticised by some on health grounds as they contain 26.9g of fat and are 565 calories. Yeah, but thats a lot of calories...I think I'll be leaving it on the shelves! What ever next hey! Oh, just so you know, it costs around £2! ENJOY you horrible devils!

On the show last night, I spoke about this Avon women who made a whopping £4million in 12 months but now, here is something just as good...A hotel cleaner has been praised after handing in over $50,000 (£33,000) left by a guest. Flippin' eck!! I am in the wrong job! Essa Khan, 51, found the sum in $100 bills left by a Japanese man at the Serena Hotel in Gilgit, Pakistan. Well, the Japanese are rich! Khan said: "My duty with the hotel and my family upbringing teaches me nothing else. Times are hard for everyone, but that doesn't mean we should start stealing and taking things which do not belong to us. I want people around the world to know that there are many good people in Pakistan - everybody is not a terrorist here." WOW! This person must be one good cleaner!

Well thats it for today peeps! I'm off out to find the sun!

Thursday 15th July

Good afternoon readers, and welcome to today's daily blog!! I'm not going to moan about today's weather because I bet you've been moaning about it all day!! Lets just say its been another wet one!

BIG SHOWBIZ NEWS: A few weeks ago, I told you that ENRIQUE IGLESIAS made a pledge: If Spain won the World Cup, he would get drunk and go water skiing NAKED in Biscayne Bay in Florida. Well . . . Spain actually DID win, and now it's time for Enrique to show whether or not he's a man of his word. And...he is. His rep told "Access Hollywood" he's going to ski naked because, quote, "a bet is a bet." Enrique hasn't said when this is going to go down. I bet you ladies will all want to see it!! Now, if I go water kiing naked, would you come and watch ladies???

Here is something horrible now but you corrie fans, might love it! The cremated remains of a cat who featured in Coronation Street's title sequence for over ten years are being put up for auction. Seriously, I'm not making this up! Frisky the cat, who died in 2000 aged 14, could be seen crouching on the roof of Jack Duckworth's pigeon loft in the ITV soap's titles, the listing on Dominic Winter Auctioneers states...I wonder why the cat was called Frisky...???? hmmmmm!? "Frisky was not only a much-loved family pet, but also captured the heart of the nation and made thousands of pounds for charities," former owner John Rimington told the Wilt and Gloucestershire Standard. We were very proud to be his owners and we are keen to keep his memory alive". Awwwwwww!!

The ashes are contained in a sealed wooden casket with small brass plaque, along with a group of nine colour publicity postcards. The lot, which is expected to sell for up to £150, goes under auction on July 22. Poor little thing!! Hang on...Why are you booking that day off work???

There is a car that lets you do your thing on the move...Yep, the days of pulling out to go to the loo have gone! A man has created a car featuring two toilets as its seats. Dave Hersch of Colorado based the design on a Hot Wheels toy car, and the finished model can travel at 30mph with its 6.5hp engine. It also boasts a magazine rack and holder for six full toilet rolls. Hersch told Rex Features: "The first version was literally a toilet on top of a go cart. It didn't last past the first turn. The toilet slid off and broke into a million pieces on the road. Porcelain is very fragile, I have learned. The second version was still a single toilet but had some features like a bolted down toilet, brakes, and a toilet seat. That version didn't make it past the first ride by my friend who flipped it and broke the toilet again." Wow!! People, this is what the cars of the future are going to contain!

Friday 16th July

Oh hello you!! Fancy seeing you here again!! Welcome back to today's daily blog and welcome to FRIDAY AFTERNOON! I am happy to say, the weekend is here and tonight I am going to see Granny and we're going to be having chips from the Chippy!! Woop Woop! Now thats what I call showbiz!! So, what's been happening today in Thin World...Well, nothing much...I've been trying not to get wet...And Oh, I've been drinking a lot of tea and coffee!! I should sleep well tonight!

Whats the worst thing you've done at the works Christmas party??? I remember, last year I got up on the bar at this pub and started dancing on it...So I have been told...Anyway, there is this police who is trying to get his job back after being fired for attaching a bottle-opener to his penis piercing during a Christmas party....OMG!! What a horrible thing to do! I feel sorry for the person who used that bottle-opener next! Sergeant Andrew Lawrance opened a beverage with the attachment in front of fellow policemen and their wives at Tommy's Chinese Restaurant in Yamba. Lawrance admitted that his actions were "inappropriate" and said: "I kicked myself [later] because something that was meant to be fun turned out to be a lot more serious than that."

Lawrance's lawyer Patricia Lowson asked the commission to order a review of the case, arguing that the dismissal was "harsh" and maybe also "unreasonable". Commissioner Andrew Scipione said that he has lost confidence in Lawrance and wants him removed from the force. Lawrance now works part-time in a bottle shop...Lets hope there are no bottle-openers around...The case continues.

Have you ever grown anything odd in your garden??? I remember pulling up a carrot from the garden once and it had bits! Anyway, a Chinese bus driver has harvested a rare conjoined watermelon in a field near his home in central China. Xiong Wei, a 25-year-old from Wuhan, has been planting the fruit in his home field for five years. "It's the first time for me to see such a weird-shaped water melon," said Xiong. Experts say it's very rare to have such a conjoined water melon. Some people think its stones in the soil that makes the food grow in funny shapes...But I think its got something to do with Aliens...

SHOWBIZZZZZ UPDATE! It's been almost four years since AMY WINEHOUSE released her HUGE "Back to Black" album. But she says her next disc is FINALLY on its way to stores. Amy tells Britain's "Metro" newspaper that her next one will be out in, quote, "six months at the most." She's reportedly targeting a January release. She adds, quote, "It's going to be very much the same as ['Back to Black'], where there's a lot of jukebox stuff and songs that are . . . just jukebox, really." (And no, she didn't elaborate on what she means by "jukebox.")

Thats it for today groovers!! Have a nice weekend and the blog will return on Monday! Oooh, and try not to get too wet!

Monday 19th July

Greetings blog fans!! First of all, welcome to another week...And another blog!! If this is your first time reading my blog...Well HELLO!! I hope you enjoy it...Here I write stuff happening in my world in and gossip happening around the world!! ...What a great start to the week, the weather is lovely where I am this afternoon, but some rain is meant to be come in later on today and tomorrow! A few weeks ago, we're all complaining that the gardens need water but I think they have had enough now, after last weeks rain!

The great thing about America is that the people meet their needs by inventing clever products for people to buy, and the economy does well. And when they DON'T have needs, the American's invent STUPID products for people to buy, and the economy STILL does well. Now, this fits into that second category. It's called the 'VizKID.' It's a dummy you put in your front passenger seat, to remind you that your KIDS are in the backseat . . . so that you don't accidentally leave them alone in a hot car. The VizKID is basically a two-foot-tall plastic cone painted with a blue Hawaiian print. On the top is a yellow plastic head with a happy face on it that sort of looks like a tennis ball.

The whole thing weighs a couple pounds, and when you're driving around with a child in the back, you're supposed to place the VizKID on the seat next to you. That way, when you get out at your destination you won't forget the kids. Obviously that can be a problem in hot weather. According to a meteorology professor at San Francisco State University named Jan Null, at least 20 kids have died of heat stroke since the beginning of the year. And ten were within the last month. It's not clear whether any of those deaths were car-related, but according to a nonprofit called Kids and Cars, the inside of a car can heat up by as much as 20 degrees in 10 minutes. The VizKID was 'invented' by David Bell of Menlo Park, near San Francisco. David's a financial consultant, but he was inspired to do something when he read about a child dying of heatstroke after being left in a car.

Now, if you was listening to the show last week, you might have heard me tell you about this on air...A survey has discovered that one in five people in Britain have sent a sex text to the wrong person. Under-25s are the most likely to make mistakes while 'sexting', as it has become known, with 43% having sent one to the wrong person. I sent a rude text to my nan once...All I can say is THANK GOD FOR TEXT-TALK...She never understand a thing is said...PHEWWW! She wanted to know what it meant, but never told her...I would tell you on here what I set her, but I'll end up getting sacked!

"Text and picture messaging has now become so second nature that people are less cautious, leading to messages frequently going astray," the commissioner of the survey said. "A key aspect of text messaging is that it allows a more detached method of communication. This was part of its initial popularity and a likely explanation for the large number of people willing to send out explicit content."

Tuesday 20th July

Happy Tuesday people!! What a horrible day it has been today...Well it has been where I am!! I hope this weather gets better soon...I think this rubbish weather has got something to do with the kids breaking up from school! The weather was great until last week!! Arggggg!! Cross everything, and lets hope the weather improves!

Underneath all of EMINEM'S anger and aggressiveness, there might just be a scared little boy who's embarrassed at the SMELLS his body can produce. According to a source who worked at Scotland's "T in the Park" festival last weekend, before Eminem performed, he had his security force clear EVERYONE out of the backstage area while Em performed his dirty business in the bathroom. And, the source says, after Em was done, the toilet was, quote, "pretty rank." (That's your Classy News Story of the Day. YOU'RE WELCOME.) Well Well Well!! You learn something new everyday!

Now, listen up oil users! According to a very important new study . . . conducted jointly by the Australian Oils Research Laboratory, and the Olive Center at the University of California, Davis . . . most so-called "extra virgin" olive oils suffer from some SERIOUS false advertising. In other words . . . they're not really "extra virgin" after all. Extra-virgin olive oil is SUPPOSED to be made from something called virgin oil. That means oil that was produced without chemical treatments. But that's not all. It's also supposed to have an acidity of 0.8% or lower. Whatever that means.

Basically, it's the good stuff, and it's recognized as the best-tasting olive oil. So the researchers went to three major cities in California, and bought 14 foreign brands of olive oil, and five California brands of olive oil. And they were all labeled "extra virgin." Then they put each one through a battery of tests, and analyzed them for taste, smell, and chemical composition. Here's what they found: 69% of the foreign brands, and 10% of the California brands, FAILED both the international and U.S. standard for extra virgin olive oil. They'd either been blended with cheaper oils, made from overripe olives, or stored incorrectly. And now you know. See, where would you be without me telling you all this important information?!

Something just pain odd to end the blog on now...Muslims may be banned from drinking the world's most expensive coffee - extracted from the dung of a civet cat - over concerns it is unclean. Errrrrrrr! Lets hope it doesn't really have cat poo in it...Maruf Amien, acting head of Indonesia's powerful Ulema Council, said a ruling on the ban could be made on Tuesday. He said the key issue was whether or not the Kopi Luwak coffee is clean. If Coffee was clean, it would look like water...And does it??? NO! So it is unclean anyway...I hope our British coffee doesn't contain Cat Poo!!!
