Your astrological week ahead, with Psychic Bob

Capricorn (22 DEC-19 JAN)
You’re looking forward to the special edition Emeli Sande album with the dinner party chat and occasional cry of ‘Fucksake, not her again’ dubbed straight onto it.

Aquarius (20 JAN-19 FEB)
On Thursday it’s Take An Arsehole Onto Public Transport Day. No, you don’t have to bring anyone.

Pisces (20 FEB-20 MAR)
This week a man in a pub will tell you he’s Will.I.Am’s permanently surprised British cousin, Well.I.Never. And you believe him.

Aries (21 MAR-19 APR)
Bad luck – your first job in a film studio is the unenviable task of telling Quentin Tarantino he’s not black.

Taurus (20 APRIL – 20 MAY)
You’ve had no booze or fags since New Year ’s Day which would be impressive if you weren’t trapped under a wardrobe.

Gemini (21 MAY-20 JUN)
It’s official – jokes based on the concept of Schrödinger’s Cat are dead. Or possibly not.

No word from Hollywood on your script about a maverick Dungeons & Dragons player foiling terrorists, 12-Sided Die Hard.

Virgo (23 AUG-22 SEP)
Cut down on your heating expenses this winter by turning off radiators in empty rooms, wearing a cardigan indoors and telling EDF to go fuck themselves.

Libra (23 SEP-23 OCT)
Following the example of your MP, you go into work this week and ask for a 32% pay rise, a diamond the size of a watermelon and a go on your boss’s wife while you’re at it.

Scorpio (24 OCT-21 NOV)
Women are usually impressed by men quoting Shakespeare but not when your date complains about her steak and you call her “The green-eyed monster that doth mock the meat it feeds on.”

Experts warn that e-cigarettes are not cool

SMOKING electronic cigarettes may harm your image, according to experts.

Researchers at the Institute for Studies criticised the e-cigarette industry for promoting fags with batteries as being cool.

Professor Henry Brubaker said: “We studied one of those things, it’s got a blue light on the tip that comes on when you inhale, for Christ’s sake.

“The product itself is like a tiny version of a nightclub smoke machine, emitting a sort of scented fog.

“Also it comes in a silly little box that looks like something a small boy might carry beetles around in. And you have to screw the bits together like a rubbish version of the hitman in Day of the Jackal.”

Professor Brubaker warned that the long-term effects of e-cigarettes smoking could include being shunned by smokers and non-smokers alike.

He said: “They could make you too smelly for non-smokers, while also being too uptight for the cancer-indifferent traditional faggers.”

However e-cigarette smoker Julian Cook said: “I suppose not caring about whether you die prematurely is cool is it?”

“Oh…actually it is. Bugger.”
