24th June What a load of b&%%&*^s!!!


 With the government planning a review of it's ownership and the prospect of Channel 4 being sold to overseas investors an increasing possibility, thousands of people have signed a petition to ensure their favourite programs are retained. 

Such programs would include the highly rated Scandi noir murder mysterys, ground breaking comedy such as  Peep Show, Father Ted and Spaced, teen dramas like Skins and The Inbetweeners, quiz favourites such as Countdown and 8 out of ten Cats. But in the case of 56 yr old Sid Grundy and his wife Betty from Arnold, Nottingham, its more a question whether that good old family favourite, Naked Attraction will now appear with subtitles if it's made abroad.

Speaking to Grace Under Pressure's exhibitionist editor, Sid fully revealed himself when he said, "Me and the wife love nothing more than settling down to look at 5 or 6 men’s dangly bits, all of them either looking like the last turkey in the shop or something you wouldn't allow near you, never mind inside you. Each of them is waggled and waved about in front of a woman who is desperately trying to make awkward remarks about how she's really looking for an intellectual date who likes the arts and country pubs."

“Or perusing a selection of women stood there completely naked as everyone stares at their front bottoms either bedecked in a veritable Ratner's selection of jewellry or stripped as bare as an Amazonian rain forest," his wife Betty added. “Every episode is a real rollercoaster every. Will it be cocks first or might it be the ladies verjazzle that get the limelight? Wil is be someone who bats for either side? Who will like who? Will they get on? Will they find love and live happily ever after? 

"Oh yes," added Sid, "It's just so romantic. I am surprised Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan have never made a film based on the show. I just hope that if it is made abroad, having to look at the subtitles for all the in depth conversation and comments won't distract too much from where my eyes are naturally drawn too."

6th May Olbia

Image
  A chance to stretch our legs today with our first port of call; Olbia, Sardinia. And it was a quick stretch too due to it being only a five hour stay. Up bright and early, so early in fact that the hot food at the buffet wasn't even ready to be served. Still it gave us a chance to watch the ship glide into port past a host of oyster/mussel beds, before performing a 180 degree turn to reverse into it's berth. A couple of short bus rides later and we were in downtown Olbia. But there an hour or so before anything appeared to open, the disadvantage of being early birds and something we don't seem to learn! Not that Olbia had a great deal to see or maybe if we had done the slightest bit of planning beforehand there might have benn but we didn't. It was pleasant enough but that's about it. It was pleasant enough but nothing special, indeed we were back on the ship after just a couple of hours ashore and then managed to sleep away most of th...

7th May Naples

Image
 I'm sure I've heard the phrase 'see Naples and die' suggesting that it is perhaps not the nicest location in the Mediterranean but if it's good enough for Diego Maradona fir a few years then it's good enough for me for 10 hours. Although the millions of tax free pounds he was paid might have eased his stay. By the time we got up, washed, dressed and up to The Kitchens, the rest of the ship were already there. Compared to the Marie Celeste of yesterday it was absolutely packed, presumably with people having breakfast before heading out on 8am excursions, our excursion was simply going to be the city of Naples itself as possible trips to Vesuvius, Pompei or the Amalfi coast would have been too much / tired.  So on a day when the weather initially seemed uncertain, we jumped aboard route A for the Hop on Hop off bus and headed out into the mayhem that is the Napoli traffic where it was every van, car and scooter for the selves. I think it's bes...
