In the last month my blog views in Russia have been
four times that in the UK, 196 to 54. Have Russian mice found an interesting
new source of cheese? It’s confusing. Am I providing English language lessons
to a proletariat eagerly preparing for their upcoming European holidays or
being crawled over by state spiders? I mean I don’t mind humans of any hue
reading this stuff but the thought of being fodder for mere trawling algorithms
is depressing. I begin to feel like a fish. Maybe they’re impatient for
insightful critiques of our excellent TV programs like X Factor and Big
Brother. (British humour) Well I think Putin should buy a Premier League
football team. It’s taken three or more years but I’ve noticed Abramavich’s
once pouting childish face slowly change to almost adult joy. He’s actually
enjoying himself now here in Blighty. Forget Ukraine Vladimir, buy Bolton
Wanderers. It’d be a great chance to get your shirt off on the training ground,
and they’re all against homophobia now. I’m sure you could join the Village
People if you really wanted to. In truth I think we Brits appeal to the Russian
sense of humour. That’s why they’re still wondering how on earth we won the
war. I mean Hitler was the serious type and Churchill was a depressive comedian
by comparison, it should have been no contest. But don’t underestimate the
power of happiness over aggression, it’ll win every time. So happiness to all
in Moscow and Nizhny Novgorod, Kiev and Donetsk.
Make it so.
