Welcome back, Jeeves. Ask Jeeves, as the site is now re-re-branded, also allows Jeeves to answer the question in his own inimitable way. In answer to the question “Why am I back?” he replies: Glad you asked. The simple answer is I’m back to help. I popped out three years ago to travel the world [...]

Now this was an interesting experience for me. If you boggle your eyes about in a way that sometimes makes other people complain that it makes their eyes hurt watching it, you start to wonder what it actually looks like. For obvious reasons when deliberately going cross-eyed and the more tricky making your eyes both [...]

There’s not really much I can add to this one. I’ll let the BBC tell the story… A busy high street bank was left open overnight after contractors forgot to lock the door. Staff had locked up the branch of Barclays in Low Fell, Gateshead, on Friday afternoon, but the contractors popped in later to [...]

This one isn’t actually an April Fool, because so far as I can tell it’s entirely true, but it’s so bizarre it ought to be an April Fool, which is why I’m running it here. Thanks to @alncl for bringing it to my attention in the first place. A MUM of three is dis-custard after [...]

A few weeks ago, I took a photograph of something in Newcastle. A market stall was advertising something for sale which I thought seemed a little unusual.

Not exactly all in the best possible taste but dead.atyourage.com will allow you to figure out who exactly you’ve managed to live longer than so far, and will provide you with your next target person… For example, people who I have lived less than a year longer than include John Belushi and Eva Braun. Whereas [...]

Note to mate from the pub over the weekend. Should we be watching highlights of the Six Nations Rugby on the telly in the pub, and discussing how well the respective teams have performed in the tournament, and you aren’t quite sure what I have said, it would seem more logical to assume that I [...]

THE severed head of what might be a British tourist has been found hanging in a plastic bag from a bridge in Bangkok. The grim package was accompanied by a clumsily written suicide not hinting the victim was a man who had been jilted in love [...] Police said the stilted English suggested it was [...]

The following conversation is made up of individual tweets. I have only posted tweets from people who released their tweets into the public domain, although given that I have cited people appropriately, I could also have used any with an attribution licence, although not without derivations also allowed, as I have removed @references to people [...]
