This blog is a travesty. It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of a travesty of two mockeries of a sham

The below is probably more deserving of a tweet than a blog post but I already have more fake online identities than Grant Shapps and don't want to add another Twitter account so it will need to live here.

I was contacted by one of my army of readers to let me know how much his wife enjoyed reading my blog and I quote, "[my wife] thought your blog was very funny and 'just like a proper one'. Whatever that means." - I too am now puzzling over this. If this isn't a proper one what is it?

The post title of course, for those wondering where I had purloined it from is a quote from the excellent Woody Allen film, Bananas.
