Gillian Gibbons, the teacher arrested and jailed in Sudan for committing the unforgivable sin of allowing her class to call a teddybear Mohammed (you all remember?) has now got a job teaching in China.

Is she fucking stupid? Is she deliberately doing a tour of all the places on the planet with the worst human rights records? Daft cow. I understand that if she makes it through her stint in the Far East unscathed, she has a job lined up in Stornoway where she’ll be teaching the local kids how to spell, use capital letters and punctuation properly. Failure will lead to her being burned alive in a giant wicker teddybear on the beach.

She looks like the sort of person who should be on the cheese counter at Asda. I certainly wouldn’t trust her with anything that requires more responsibility than wrapping stuff in plastic and sticking a barcode label on it.

Some people eh?

Sniffy is excited!

My favourite band, The B52s, have a new single out. Funplex, the album of the same name is out in March and I can’t wait. They’ve not recorded an album since 1992, so this is long awaited.

The band members have always looked a bit dodgy, but they’re looking almost embalmed these days. In fact, their heads look stuck on in that photo. Still, the new single is great, so I have high hopes that album will be worth the wait too.
