Badder’s right. It’s not a question of who leaked it, but of what it says.
Thin, you really want to set aside common sense and plunge into the unknown with a blind optimism that we’ll muddle through.
There is a feeling that we won’t survive as a UK at all.
The disruption to the ports is likely to last for months. We will be the only country…[Read more]

Thin,
they’re experts within the Civil Service in assessing the risks and threats that come with leaving the EU.
They’re not prophets, or crystal-ball gazers, and they can’t predict the future, but their expertise lies in presenting likelihood and probability
These are worst-case scenarios, but we can expect a variant of them if we do…[Read more]

I have a couple of friends who really enjoy cycling.
One took the hazardous journey of cycling in London, but another has a number of bicicuyles, including a mountain bike, and drives all across the country to go cycling in different places.
He’s tried to persuade me, but
as Reg said in The Life of Brian, “Yeah, well I can’t go with you, it’s…[Read more]

Good for you, Angel Babe
I don’t like or dislike dogs,

The ghost (of Morg?) is getting less and less mystical, and increasingly dull, with each post.

Thomas Hardy’s poem The Going, deals with the death of his wife.
They hadn’t spoken to one another in years, despite living together.
I can never read this startling poem, revolutionary in its rhythms and line spacing, without stopping halfway through the last verse.
Why did you give no hint that night
That quickly after the morrow’s…[Read more] -

The nearest to a definition of love is given in the following song, The words are very famous, the music gives them new life and meaning.
It’s the meaning of love found by Dante after the death of Beatrice. La Vita Nuova is a marvellous book.

Sara,
I don’t dislike the romantic idea of love.
I think love takes a lot of different forms, and it’s impossible to pin it down as a definition, or as a series of numbers. I gave an alternative series of numbers whihc saw love very differently.
I’ve not said what my own experiences of love are, or what I see love to actually be. I don’t want…[Read more]

Cripes!
The hangman’s going to be busy..
Will the hangings be public, with us being able to take our kids with their sandwiches and sweets to watch?
If there’s not to be any hangings – awwwwww.
How is that going to deter anybody??
