Took a Transavia flight, and flicked through the in-flight magazine for travel tips…saw the map and thought I should definitely go surfing in the wild Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Liverpool.
Weeeeeeee.
Ms Justice Mary Laffoy agreed in the High Court with the decision of a Revenue Appeals Commissioner that Mr O’Brien’s permanent home in the tax year 2000/2001 was Quinta de Lago, Almanscil, Portugal, and not Ireland.

Photographer Joseph Ford’s rather pleasing mashups of crumpled duds and aerial landscapes. Some are complex (the dunes and sweater in pic7), some are subtle (the single plaid square matching a section of roof in pic1) and one juxtaposes two complementary aerials (pic2) because that’s also nice.

What you may need to know:
1. It’s possibly the most superfluous remake since that shot-for-shot Psycho.
2. That said, it’s not half bad.
3. Who’s Robocop? Swedish actor Joel Kinnaman, from the US version of The Killing. He nearly got the Mad Max gig, but Tom Hardy bagged that one.
4. Sam Jackson, Gary Oldman and Michael Keaton? We’re amazed there’s any scenery left. NB: Michael Keaton needs to work more.
5. No, we don’t get a Peter Weller cameo.
6. Actually, just watch the original again. It’s a pulp masterpiece.
7. Broadsheet Prognosis: Fair Cop
Release Date: 2014
Just some world class captioning.
Thanks Ronan Kelly.

Sparky Sweets on Ray Bradbury’s classic novel: a tale of blazin’ up, book-jackin’ and suicidal gangsta hags.
But you knew that.
