Apparently, if you subscribe for a year you can save £20 on your subscription, and get it for just £99 reduced from the usual price of £120. Er… Wait a minute, shouldn’t that be a £21 saving then? Well perhaps it’s actually a saving on the monthly subscription, which would total £119.88 over the course of the year, and there was some rounding down involved. Hang …

Give Orlando Bloom a Knighthood

If we ever needed a reason to love Orlando Bloom even more than we do already, his latest spat with Bieber has left us all supporting #teambloom. Poor Bloom seems to be at the center of a row with pop’s most annoying star, Justin Bieber. Many rumours have sparked that the little cretin dating Bloom’s ex-wife while they were still together. See: http://www.buzzfeed.com/elliewoodward/orlando-bloom-tried-to-punch-justin-bieber-after-a-scuffle-i We can’t believe that she would look at the Beebs when she has someone like Orlando Bloom in the bag, but I suppose there is no accounting for taste. Whatever the reason, we’re sure that Justin deserved …

How Would Politicians Look if They Were Rock Stars?

Former Prime Minister, Tony Blair, is known for his college rock band, Ugly Rumours. What if they had gone on to have huge success, demanding all of his time and preventing him from pursuing a career in politics? How different would his life have been, and what would he be like now? We are used to seeing our politicians in their formal suits, looking clean cut and well groomed, like they mean business. But what if they had gone down the rock star path and decided to pursue a career in a successful band? What would they be like? How …

Itinerary for a Romantic Break in Paris

Of course, the word “itinerary” doesn’t sit too well alongside the word “romantic”, as there is nothing less romantic than sticking rigidly to a plan – except maybe having no plan at all. You can soon find yourselves wandering aimlessly through prostitute filled streets, failing to find somewhere to eat that you can both agree on. This could lead to squabbles, stropping, stomping off and unless you are really good at making up – a ruined holiday. This article is to give you some inspiration on how to prepare for your trip to ‘gay Paris’ (pronounced Paree – with a …
