It has been a hard few weeks for the people of Nottingham and Mansfield. Thanks to the big ass clouds in the sky we got way too much snow which caused a little bit of chaos across the Country. The A60 into Nottingham became an ice road which left many commuters stranded or unable to get to work. Nottinghamshire County Council have had their work cut out trying to get out in time to grit all the roads as well as trying to keep the City Centre free of dangerous icy sludge. There have been reports coming in from all over the UK regarding accidents, missing people and the most recent and more ridiculous...

Not quite the Lady Gaga feature I wanted but for now it will do I have been waiting patiently for a South Park Lady Gaga parody, the only thing so far is the moment where Eric Cartman sings Poker Face whilst Kenny and Kyle play the Drums and Guitar. Its a classic moment but we want more GaGa on Sout Park please guys<<< Matt and Trey if you happen to read this please give us a GaGa has a dick episode… Anyway, here is Cartman doing Poker Face by Lady Ga Ga ...

I cannot believe it. Of all the incidents in the past week, the one that makes national news is the one from the Chad regarding a Range Rover pulling a sledge behind it. Something that a hell of alot of people across the Country have been doing. I understand that its dangerous but at the same time why would such a story make front page news AND the East Midlands today website and main news? I was disgusted that such a story could make such headlines and that the police seem to be bending over backwards to find the people involved. A total waste of police time… The story/saga...

Something that made the local news lately was a story about a group of kids being towed around on a sledge by a Range Rover. The CHAD newspaper decided that this was front page material and thanks to a local man named John Gardiner took it upon himself to take a picture of these kids and the Range Rover. Straight away I had to make a comment on the Chad website, I used to read the paper every week and over the past few years the stories have gone from bad to worse. My point was this: Why is there such a story on the front page? Surely there are more important things that could have made the front...

Just under a year ago I started Scuba Diving with the Mansfield BSAC club. It was something I had not tried before and with my partner at the time taking an interest in it I thought I would give her some support and give it a try myself. We spent over six months attending pool sessions and training towards an ocean diver qualification. Due to one thing or another we have yet to pass this course and have still not been out into open water and now due to us breaking up I cannot see me continuing with the newly found hobby. I guess it was never meant to be, it was fun whilst it lasted but in all honesty I...

Following a spinal operation I have been having several issues with sitting down for long periods of time and with me working behind a screen and desk for most of my time its becoming more and more difficult to stop my back from stiffening up. I seem to have a substantial amount of scar tissue which restricts the movement in my lower spine. Anyway, the point I am getting to is my posture at work. I sit behind a desk for a good eight hours a day and despite being told by the osteopath and physio to get up and walk about every hour when you are busy its difficult. I have been looking into the office...
