Unfinished Theories Part 1
By Andrea Longstaff
Part 2

Angus, my guitar hero but..........

I do think the Aussie guitarist Angus Young is getting a bit long in the tooth for the school boy uniform.

I reckon Angus is a big Krankie's fan and he wears this uniform in tribute to the little munchkin, Jeanette Krankie. When AC/DC where belting out Highway to Hell, I truly believe that Angus was, in his mind, really meaning Fandabidozie.
I am in my thirties and I notice that the women in their sixties have this incredible ability to utter the phrases, Depression, I dunno what that is .. and; Stress, there was none of that in my day, we just got on with it, they don't know their born these days.

Anyone in their thirties will remember Playschool well; that Floela Benjamin really does have a lot to answer to, completely messing up a generation single handily!

I feel that children's programmes are really meant for adults with slight psychiatric disorders anyway.
Take The Sooty Show, for example. Sooty, he was just so serene, like a little fluffy guru. Sweep, well ... what a neurotic, hysterical character he was! And that Sue, well she was just a fussy cow!

Buzz Lightyear has to be one of the best characters to have emerged in recent times.
The poor feller was just soooooooo delusional, he really did believe, in his heart of hearts that he was a laser-shooting spaceman. Woody, fortunately, had something of a grip on reality. He was like, Come on Buzz; get a grip, you're a fucking toy!

The underlying theme to the much acclaimed Toy Story was really, To insanity .. and beyond.
As for the programmes for the grown-ups, well! Buffy The Vampire Slayer has completely fluffy bunnieurised the whole vampire folklore, which in actuality is really interesting. You want a real woman running about, covered in entrails, swilling pints of bitter and not all this I can't do a thing with me hair. Sarah Michelle Geller; no! We want Janice Battersby! Just killed a vampire with a barmcake through the heart am off home to do our Les's teeeeeeeeeea - realism at its best. Janice, bless her, could save the left over garlic for Betty's hotpot, as the infamous Mick Jagger once said; Kill two birds with one stone.
Utter shit like Buffy give such an unrealistic impression of vampirism. You want a traditional love story. Boy meets girl; girl gets exsanguineated by boy; and girl is now the living dead.
The true nature of the parking places in Tesco is in reality a fertility symbol for the little people. It has nothing whatsoever to do with motorists with children. Hasn't anyone ever noticed the striking resemblance to Piltdown Man, in miniature?
The little people where obviously disturbed going about their clandestine operations by someone, or something, whilst under cover of darkness, with their little pot of paint because the aforementioned fertility symbol was lacking the penis!

So if you do happen to venture out for late night shopping, do not, I repeat, do not call the police complaining of exhibitionist pigmys.
Why are the prices in the shops that sell these beautiful African carvings so extortionate? I do realise a lot of time and effort must have gone into the process, what with the intricate details of these pieces, but come on! Are these women giving birth to triplets in mud huts whilst fending off wilder beast whilst whittling away?

You'd need to mug an awful lot of elderly people, who in my opinion get far too much pension money anyway, just to purchase an ornament so tiny that Tom Thumb would have to stand on step ladders to reach it!

Articles - Big Screens, Beslan and the Bus Home
By Joe Hakim
I decide to go into town to buy a CD and a magazine. As I'm leaving Whitefriargate I bump into a mate that I haven't seen in ages. We talk for a bit, all the 'Hey, how the fuck are you, yer bastard,' shit, and then we decide to go and have a couple of cheeky pints. Read more...

Articles - Has It Only Been A Year? (A Personal History of thisisUll.com) By Rich Mills
Well in actual fact it's been just over a year, but the title of this piece was long enough without starting to split hairs on the timing of this piece not coinciding with the actual anniversary of thisisUll.com. Now I'm proud to say I was there at the Read more...

Articles - Made In Hull - Part Four - Schooldays
By Maurice Fairfield
My first day at school is still vivid in a misty sort of way. We were all given a little child-sized blackboard, with a tiny blackboard eraser and some chalk. So far so good. Unfortunately I thought it was mine and when they wanted it back they had to take it by brute force. The blackboard was Read more...

Articles - Eat Your End of an Era By Joe Hakim
So I agree to go and watch my mate play a set at the Welly club. I've stopped clubbing, but I go anyway, because he's my mate and I said I would. When I say clubbing, I mean the whole go out take drugs and dance thing. Read more...

Articles - Peoples of Olde England (the North/South divide) - a declaration of war By The King Rat
Since the dawn of time before English folk focussed their anger on immigrants and the sharp decline of Only Fools and Horses, we whiled away the hours hating anyone and everyone. We hated our families, our neighbours, our fellow townspeople. We hated people on TV, successful people Read more...

Articles - Our Telephone Pole By Mo
Poking my head out of the window I asked "Can I take some pictures for the website?". "No problem came the reply" from Alan the team leader looking up from the base of the pole. Another story lands in my lap I thought, as I unloaded the battery charger and slipped the first rechargeable into our 150 quid Minolta digital camera. Read more...

Articles - My New Boss By Joe Hakim
My new boss is a Nazi pig-fucker from Hell. There, I've said it. Just writing it and then re-reading it is enough to make me feel immeasurably better about my work related predicament. My current job involves working with the general public, a vague term at best. Read more...

Articles - THE LUCKY BASTARDS CLUB (A Reporter`s Tale)
By Denis Price
`I`m a bit worried about this,` said Austin, the man from the `Daily Record`. I looked at him and then peered through the clubhouse window at our aircraft. `You`ll be alright`, I said reassuringly, `Its got the right number of wings and wheels, it`ll be a piece of cake`. I winced at the use of wartime RAF slang and Read more...
