Politics, International Relationships, and the Arms Trade, are riddled with back-room dealing. Even the murderer of 270 people can be 'bought' out of prison; especially if you're negotiating with a politician, with the morals of BLAIR.
Did someone mention that he's just become a Super-Catholic?
Super Catholic...what is that! is it the place just below the Pope or is it right up there...got me beat but our faith in our leaders is dimishing very fast in our part of the world and yours too it seems..

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching).
Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!

ReplyDeleteYes, somewhere between a Catholic by birth, and a Catholic by job. And, of course, you have to tell the world (very loudly) that you've signed-up.
ReplyDeleteThat picture is of Blair shaking the Madame Tussaud version Cro, at a rehearsal for the real thing.
ReplyDeleteTo see which one would melt first?
ReplyDeleteI was going to write EXACTLY what Tom did but was not sure how to spell Tussaud!
ReplyDelete2 so Dummies?
ReplyDeleteOh my, that wallpaper makes me ill. That's a strange picture in all.
ReplyDelete2 interesting snippets about Gaddafi.
ReplyDeleteIn 1995 he expelled 30,000 Palestinians from Libya.
He has a personal group of 40 bodyguards; all women, and all virgins.
So WHOSE bodies need guarding Cro?
