Whats your idea of fate

Meeting death in the market place, losing that lottery ticket.

For me its somewhere I would love to be this weekend Festival at the Edge, the storytelling festival. Have a good one folks, I will be reading some stories and thinking of you.

Boris goes on and on and on

He was in Cambridge this week going on about it, he is on the news this evening going on about it. What is he going on about, airports or more precisely international hubs. Yes its that man Boris. The mayor of London, the future prime minister!

Boris says if the island doesn't go ahead then Stanstead or Gatwick or wherever must expand. Why? Business leaders say we need a hub, why? I thought all this technology was going to save people having to travel to do business.

We need it because we are Great Britain, oh we must have it then, lets have two.

And the water voles say..... its nice ere init....

Serious now, so after the glove I sees this lovely water filled ditch. Heaven for water voles on a ditch bank, bank cut every other year, south facing, lovely grub in the ditch and on either side. What more could you want.

You know youve been waiting for it here it at last Glove 5 I think.....

Out on an ecology job and stumbling around in the bushes I see it languishing in the bottom of a ditch, gasping and just managing to speak, water water, sun tan lotion.

Well it could have been saying that I certainly was!

are they shouting wolf

So today we have a fuss about a payrise for MP's in 2015. Then we have all the main party leaders falling over themselves to say its wrong etc etc.  Finally you hear that the pay rise would come with cuts in pension, golden goodbyes and who knows what else.

So the question has to be what do our MP's get now in total, salary and extras, more or less than the proposed new rate. I think we need to know.

robin page in paper yesterday has he got a point

Cambridge News July 4th to publicise new book. Political correctness is intellectual fascism, it is stopping us discussing real issues such as over population.

Has he got a point, certainly at times you have to wonder if those at the top avoid certain topics because the answers are clear but not going to be popular.

what can you say, are words necessary
