A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian

For years Nadezhda and Vera two Ukrainian sisters raised in England by their refugee parents have had as little as possible to do with each other – and they have their reasons. But now they find they’d better learn how to get along because since their mother’s death their aging father has been sliding into his second childhood and an alarming new woman has just entered his life. Valentina a bosomy young synthetic blonde from the Ukraine seems to think their father is much richer than he is and she is keen that he leave this world with as little money to his name as possible. If Nadazhda and Vera don’t stop her no one will. But separating their addled and annoyingly lecherous dad from his new love will prove to be no easy feat – Valentina is a ruthless pro and the two sisters swiftly realize that they are mere amateurs when it comes to ruthlessness. As Hurricane Valentina turns the family house upside down old secrets come falling out including the most deeply buried one of them all from the War the one that explains much about why Nadazhda and Vera are so different.In the meantime oblivious to it all their father carries on with the great work of his dotage a grand history of the tractor.

A Short History of Nearly Everything

Posted by Notcot on Jun 30, 2012 in Cult Film
A Short History of Nearly Everything

Bill Bryson describes himself as a reluctant traveller: but even when he stays safely in his own study at home he can’t contain his curiosity about the world around him. A Short History of Nearly Everything is his quest to find out everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization – how we got from there being nothing at all to here being us. Bill Bryson’s challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us like geology chemistry and particle physics and see if there isn’t some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. It’s not so much about what we know as about how we know what we know. How do we know what is in the centre of the Earth or what a black hole is or where the continents were 600 million years ago? How did anyone ever figure these things out? On his travels through time and space he encounters a splendid collection of astonishingly eccentric competitive obsessive and foolish scientists like the painfully shy Henry Cavendish who worked out many conundrums like how much the Earth weighed but never bothered to tell anybody about many of his findings. In the company of such extraordinary people Bill Bryson takes us with him on the ultimate eye-opening journey and reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.

Terrorist Tea Pot

Terrorist Tea Pot

Teatime control! I know who you are I know where you live… and I demand milk and sugar! Take control of teatime. Have your demands met with the Terrorist Tea Pot but whatever happens don’t let them see your face! The traditional British hand knitted cosy tends to resemble a woollen hat often featuring a bobble on top. According to comedian Billy Connolly if a man is left alone in a room with a tea cosy and he does not attempt to wear it he is not be trusted. Tea cosies in fiction include the eponymous items in Edward Gorey’s The Haunted Tea Cosy: A Dispirited and Distasteful Diversion for Christmas. Some tea cosies are just evil. The Suck UK Terrorist Tea Pot is a set including a tea pot and a balaclava tea cosy. The pot holds 1.5 litres (50oz) which will make you 5 or 6 big cups of steaming hot tea! A wise man once said that when a person is gripped by the unknown the scary or the inexplicable the kneejerk reaction is to laugh which may go some way to explaining why some zany creator came up with the Terrorist Tea Pot a dichotomy if ever there was one. So if you like your tea aggressively strong then grasp this little tearaway with his menacing eyes and silly balaclava tea cosy and tuck into a pile of biscuits and a top cuppa – we say make tea not war! Features:    A very menacing tea pot with dark intimidating eyes A balaclava tea cosy to keep the identity of your tea-time terrorist a tightly guarded secret Tea pot holds 1.5l (50oz) Cups spoons and saucers not included. Please note: Do not let children handle scolding water or tea. Size: Dimensions: 48.5 x 22 x 67.5cm    Weight: 8.3kg
