HUMAN VS CHIMP
No, not the title of a new reality cage-fighting show where man is pitted against monkey. This is the premise of a study by a Japanese university suggesting “young chimpanzees have a better memory than human adults”. Good on them. Whilst we act like we’re the big boys and girls on this planet, we do, […]
STUDENT SPORTING COMMUNITY BEWARE
Dirk Kuyt was the fifth Liverpool player to be burgled in less than 18 months. Each time the players were away on footballing duty or on holiday. Members of the student sporting community beware; it can only be a matter of time before these lowlifes get bored of fast cars, gold jewellery and priceless memorabilia. […]
PRIMARK: BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR
Now I am ‘Primarni’ all the way, but even us die hard fans have to admit that wearing the same flaming gold dress that three other girls in the queue at the taxi rank have on has run its course! Trying to disguise your red handbag that is being held by almost everyone in Wetherspoons […]

SHALL WE GET A DOG?
I miss my dog. I’m sure many of you feel the same. There’s something about the unconditional love of a mutt that no amount of sex, drugs and computer games can replace. Fuck cats, they have no purpose. I’m happy to attract the resentment of pussy lovers the world over because I’m not scared […]
SU’s SHOULD ALWAYS REMAIN SOVEREIGN
The Student Union of a University in a sense epitomizes the transition for someone from being a silly teenager to a responsible adult. For the first time students are able to have a say in important issues, and take responsibility for making entertaining nights and other things. With its democratic policy of allowing students to […]
