    Tonight is going to be a cracker by all accounts!

    We are in a random night in the Brum! (I am going midgit hunting) 8)

    I think the best nights are the random ones, up and offski, we aint taking any over night stuff but we may end up in a hotel or a taxi home. :lol:

    Are you a random or a prepared sort?

    totally random !! im out today too,but i dont even know what time im going out ,so i got up at 7 am,just in case its an early start.. Blues n Jazz festival here,so plenty of live music abounds.its on in most pubs in city centre,,so i have my wee free flyer thing,of the bands i wanna see,,

    I should call my pal,as she leaves timimgs to me ,as Im that random i will decide on a whim when im going to be ready. making a decent brekkie for me and jo,,he is going too,but NOT with me,,not wanting him and his mates cramping MY style.

    I may or may not come home. though in my case its innocent,as i tend to get a chinky and sleep at Karens,as she lives near the town.. damm why am i admitting THAT,, what i really mean is ,some hot blues guitarist will WANT me and i will be shagged hard all night !

    I say bring back the “hey mans” and bearded types,, I find festivals all 25 year old,baseball cap ,wearing types. Who wouldnt know good music if it bit them on the designer denim erse !
    I went to tea in the park a couple of years back,and couldnt find drugs for the life of me ! Had to drink pish warm lager !

    the true essence of the festivals for me was being totally unplanned,and leaving things to fate where we slept etc LOL. and if i didnt look like Swampy by the end of it,id have demanded my money back. Now they have big 16 bedroom tents etc! and electic supplies for straightners etc.

    Kids today,,, dont know their born.

    ” In the spring of the year, vast numbers of emigrants who have newly
    arrived from England or from Ireland, pass between Quebec and
    Montreal on their way to the backwoods and new settlements of
    Canada. If it be an entertaining lounge (as I very often found it)
    to take a morning stroll upon the quay at Montreal, and see them
    grouped in hundreds on the public wharfs about their chests and
    boxes, it is matter of deep interest to be their fellow-passenger
    on one of these steamboats, and mingling with the concourse, see
    and hear them unobserved.

    The vessel in which we returned from Quebec to Montreal was crowded
    with them, and at night they spread their beds between decks (those
    who had beds, at least), and slept so close and thick about our
    cabin door, that the passage to and fro was quite blocked up. They
    were nearly all English; from Gloucestershire the greater part; and
    had had a long winter-passage out; but it was wonderful to see how
    clean the children had been kept, and how untiring in their love
    and self-denial all the poor parents were.

    Cant as we may, and as we shall to the end of all things, it is
    very much harder for the poor to be virtuous than it is for the
    rich; and the good that is in them, shines the brighter for it. In
    many a noble mansion lives a man, the best of husbands and of
    fathers, whose private worth in both capacities is justly lauded to
    the skies. But bring him here, upon this crowded deck. Strip from
    his fair young wife her silken dress and jewels, unbind her braided
    hair, stamp early wrinkles on her brow, pinch her pale cheek with
    care and much privation, array her faded form in coarsely patched
    attire, let there be nothing but his love to set her forth or deck
    her out, and you shall put it to the proof indeed. So change his
    station in the world, that he shall see in those young things who
    climb about his knee: not records of his wealth and name: but
    little wrestlers with him for his daily bread; so many poachers on
    his scanty meal; so many units to divide his every sum of comfort,
    and farther to reduce its small amount. In lieu of the endearments
    of childhood in its sweetest aspect, heap upon him all its pains
    and wants, its sicknesses and ills, its fretfulness, caprice, and
    querulous endurance: let its prattle be, not of engaging infant
    fancies, but of cold, and thirst, and hunger: and if his fatherly
    affection outlive all this, and he be patient, watchful, tender;
    careful of his children’s lives, and mindful always of their joys
    and sorrows; then send him back to Parliament, and Pulpit, and to
    Quarter Sessions, and when he hears fine talk of the depravity of
    those who live from hand to mouth, and labour hard to do it, let
    him speak up, as one who knows, and tell those holders forth that
    they, by parallel with such a class, should be High Angels in their
    daily lives, and lay but humble siege to Heaven at last.

    Which of us shall say what he would be, if such realities, with
    small relief or change all through his days, were his! Looking
    round upon these people: far from home, houseless, indigent,
    wandering, weary with travel and hard living: and seeing how
    patiently they nursed and tended their young children: how they
    consulted ever their wants first, then half supplied their own;
    what gentle ministers of hope and faith the women were; how the men
    profited by their example; and how very, very seldom even a
    moment’s petulance or harsh complaint broke out among them: I felt
    a stronger love and honour of my kind come glowing on my heart, and
    wished to God there had been many Atheists in the better part of
    human nature there, to read this simple lesson in the book of Life “.

    As ever, a brilliant post and a perfect piece of writing for a Sunny Saturday Morning.
