MY FATHER LEFT TO ME
Many things, of course, but one springs back to mind right now.
He said to me :-
" Always be careful of two things. Slicky dicks and slippy dips."
He was an old Labourite.

PAGEN FESTIVAL - ENJOYED IT I DID
Loved the Mid-Summer Festival time. Actually I was rather well behaved but I guess that is relative.
But damn it me budget for the month is shot to pieces.
The banks refuse to even grant me a power-breakfast meeting and I really must get back in the swing of things soon.
Maybe I should reply to the request from Sir Mark Thatcher. I was asked to help in a charitable expedition to Ethiopia and get paid well back for it.
Dear Maggi : What can I do?

JUST TO RELAX BEFORE ME GRASS IS CUT
We all love favourite things. So I have been thinking about some of my favourite TV song lines.
This is what I came up with :-
" Put the wine in the coconut and shake it all up..."
" Welcome to our house, our house, our house. And we hope you will stay"
If anybody knows the TV programme where these song-lines featured then you are as silly as me - but what other song-lines fill our brains and shake those marbles?

LIBERTY IS A DILEMMA THIS WEEKEND
Bugger me the Sun is back and the grass is growing so fast that soon we will be able to feel it growing.
Me missus demands that this weekend we cut the grass.
Thinking quickly for a change I said in response that : the dandelions are growing too and at the same time and place. We cannot cut the dandylions can we? They have feelings too.
Reply from me missus was straight and clear. She said THE GRASS MUST BE CUT AND WITH IT THE DANDELIONS. WHY SHOULD DANDYLIONS HAVE ALL THE FUN.

GEORGE ORWELL RIGHT BEFORE BUT TODAY ......
During "World War 2" Orwell was right to criticise those, like Alex Comfort, who would make public their refusenik-to-war stance.
Today?
Today Orwell would be wrong.
Today, as war seems "inevitable" yet again, we must say NO.
Today we smell those rats already before the nasty event.
Today we have no excuse.Today we must say NO !
Eric Blair would, I suspect, agree today.
