Welcome to the 21st C

This man in the photo is (was) Robert Dorgan. He recently shot and killed a couple of people at a US High School Ice Hockey game, before 'doing the decent thing' and turning the gun on himself.

He also went by the name of Roberta Esposito. It seems that he enjoyed dressing-up as a woman (well, he wore a frock anyway).

I know nothing about this man, or why he dressed-up, but by looking at his photo I can see he was obviously a very disturbed person.

Unfortunately for the world at large, this man, with his offensive Nazi tattoos, is the type of person that the Woke-Folk wish to allow into Ladies loos and changing rooms, and also to participate in Women's sports. Had he lived, they would also have wanted him to be sent to a women's prison.

I must say, that if he'd entered a men's loo or sports dressing room that I was in, dressed looking like that, I'd certainly have been a tad perturbed. 

This is how life has become, simply because we cow-tow to certain 'activists' who are serving their own minority interests. And if you say anything against it; you get 'CANCELLED'.

Funny AND informative is unusual. But here is comic Joe Lycett offering both.

Maxi-Luddites

 

It doesn't take a genius to understand that all of our Agriculture, and our infrastructure and domestic Construction industries, rely heavily on machinery that use fossil fuels; mostly Diesel. Without that fuel everything would grind to a staggering halt. I have yet to see any Tesla Tractors, Diggers, or Bulldozers around.

Luckily we have plenty of Oil and Gas reserves in The North Sea, but our LUDDITE Minister of Energy Security and Net Zero, the fragrant Ed Milybloodyidiot (above), wants to ban all fossil fuels, and use the light breeze and whatever sunshine we get instead. He refuses to allow our major Oil Co's to drill for our own fuel reserves (of which we have plenty); so we buy from Norway and elsewhere at greatly inflated prices instead. OK, being 99% 'eco' is a pleasantly endearing Woke idea, but we do need to be practical as well.

The most disturbing effect of their Net Zero policies will be on Agriculture. This bizarre government has already caused chaos by stopping farms being handed from Father to Son/Daughter by the imposition of crippling Inheritance Taxes; most farms will now have to be sold to pay huge tax demands. That, and the lack of Diesel Oil for their tractors, will soon bring UK farming to near STANDSTILL. How come that everybody seems to understand this, other than our current bunch of blinkered politicians?

It is no secret that the world's major manufacturers and suppliers of Milifool's beloved Wind turbines and Solar panels are CHINESE. For some strange reason, our politicians prefer to support THEIR economy rather than our own. No wonder that Starmer was visiting China recently. Will we soon be eating Chinese Spuds and Brussels Sprouts?

And it's not only that. The next time you visit your supermarket, take a look at all the parked cars, and see the number that are either Chinese (EV's) or Japanese. Why is it that even our own citizens prefer to support THEIR economies rather than buying European?

All answers on a postcard please to The Luddites of No 10 Downing St, London.

Avian 'des res'.

I am 'now' successfully feeding our local birds (mostly Sparrows) at the front of the house, but I'm having less success at the back.

I installed this very well built and solid bird box about 4 years ago, and although it is in a secure position, it has yet to have any residents. I haven't even seen any birds having a tour of inspection.

It has a good watertight roof, the inside is clean and 'cosy', and it is situated away from prying Cats or Foxes. In other words (to me) it seems ideal for a blossoming family of Blue or Great Tits.

I suppose I could hang a seed-filled feeder nearby to attract them, but that may prove to be counter-productive.

Anyway, I've given it a clean, installed a 'Vacant' sign, and am crossing my fingers.

For heaven's sake; it even has Roses around the door (or it will have). What more could they possibly want!

 

An Essential Change to the Law!

On Saturday morning, I was waiting at a traffic light, when a man pulled-up behind me wearing the EXACT type of large pale-grey hoodie as this woman is wearing below.

Originally I simply thought he looked a bit of a plonker, as it was a lovely warm sunny day. But then I noticed him looking sideways both right and left.

As his head moved, I noticed that the hoodie DIDN'T. Meaning that he couldn't see anything out to either side.

Personally I wouldn't be seen dead wearing a hoodie, let alone wearing one on a warm day in a car. It's no different to a horse wearing blinkers.

So, here is an open letter to Lord Hermer KL, the UK's Attorney General....

"Dear Sir; I would be grateful if you would recommend an immediate ban on the wearing of 'hoodies' by all bike, car, and lorry drivers. It is a danger to other road-users, and other than looking ridiculous, it is also totally unnecessary.  May I also recommend an 'on-the-spot-fine' of £500 (or more). Thank you; Cro".

 

Another Product Test.

My shopping is usually very disciplined; I have my list, and I stick to it.

But occasionally, just occasionally, I throw caution to the winds and invest in a total unknown.

I just happened to be looking for a favourite brand of Choucroute, when I noticed this (below). Spichlerz Rusiecki Miesiwo (I hope I've spelt that correctly).

It didn't really give many clues as to what it was, but it did claim to be 'Dish of meat au jus'; I was intrigued.

I thought it must be Polish, and be made of Pork. It looked rather like the Jamboneau I buy in France, with a solid looking lump of meat surrounded by jelly. But I wasn't sure if it was a type of paté, or a mixture of paté and meat, or even a solid piece of preserved meat. It didn't say, and I couldn't see!

In fact it was solid meat (not minced), and was probably made-up from several pieces. It WAS very similar to the French Jamboneau, but maybe not quite as tasty.

I found it amongst the foreign foods at Sainsbury's, but I don't know if it's sold everywhere. I'm sure most bigger stores would have it. Online it was advertised at £2.38 from Asda, £2.50 from Sainsbury's (which is what I paid), and £4.26 + £19.99 delivery from londongrocery.net (they must be bloody kidding!).

It was certainly worth buying; I enjoyed it, and it wasn't over expensive. If you like that sort of thing I would recommend that you give it a go. Serve with buttered toast and a few gherkins!

Verdict: 8/10. It could be better seasoned, but otherwise very pleasant. I shall certainly buy it again.

Harry Hill

Harry Hill isn't on TV much these days, but he was always amongst my very favourite comedians.

I once went to a show of his at The Theatre Royal here in Brighton; it was without doubt the funniest evening of my life.

This very short video comes from his TV show 'TV Burp'. A classic of the style of clips he showed.

One of my real hates, is people who don't speak clearly. Mumbling has become 'fashionable' (especially amongst actors); so here are some good examples. Enjoy!

And don't ask me what they're saying (except for the final one) because I don't have a clue.
