Ooooooh it isn’t raining. What a difference a day makes. I do miss the rain though. As long as I am inside and dry then I don’t mind what it is doing outside.
So the flood waters are retreating a little in Gloucestershire then.? Good good. At least they didn’t have John Prescott visiting them on a mercy mission. Then again I heard that a certain David Cameron, Conservative leader and MP for the constituency, has been sighted in Rwanda on a mission to help sort out trade barriers and world poverty. Sounds like a good idea but I am not so sure.
Ok, yes he should have been in the UK as the flooding unfolded before he left, but then again, what in hell do people expect him to do if he IS here.? In a flood I would have thought the best people to have around when the world and it’s dog is floating past your first floor window is a Fireman carrying a pump or maybe a bloke from the Coastguard with a bloody great yellow Sea King helicopter NOT a member of Parliament with a cheeky grin and a wavy haircut. Perhaps it is noble that he is in Africa saying “We in the Tory party want to help you” but surely problems within his own area of responsibility need addressing first. And on the subject of Africa, surely we HAVE tried… there is a lot more that can be done, but they do need to help themselves first.
I really should stop listening to Radio Two. Jeremy Vine’s programme throws up so much into my head.! Like the guy who thought that a great idea would be to concrete over ALL the train lines in Britain and turn them into coach only roads. Lunacy obviously, but reading THIS idiot’s mind bogglingly stupid ramblings I find that he is not alone in the world.!
What he has lost is the ability to understand that COACHES ARE NOT COMFORTABLE OR SAFE.! I have travelled by both train and coach. I detest being stuffed onto a 53 seater vehicle that is driven by a bloke called Nigel who used to be a gas fitter but after a couple of quick lessons he can now be put in charge of 15 tonnes of metal travelling at 56 miles an hour. He is unsafe as is Dave the trucker who doesn’t know the road he is travelling on and hasn’t had that much sleep but is still happy enough to plough on with his 44 tonner carrying petrol because he knows he will get paid more the quicker he is.
It is the same as buses. I go to Bristol on a train because I have more headroom, more legroom especially (unless I get stuck on one of Virgin’s accursed Voyagers) and it is so much smoother. Roads bounce all over the place, rails tends not to. I can’t read in a road vehicle because I become VERY travel sick almost instantly, but on a train I can do so. Also the over height vehicles such as the Sky liner or any 4m coach sways considerably at the higher point so creating a rocking motion (go upstairs on a double decker bus sometime).
The fact that the author loses credibility by having no real knowledge of the basic points of his argument just sums him up. Oh he also wrote a book on food that was ridiculed… but I can’t be arsed to take the piss out of the daft sod.
And finally, a Muslim woman made me actually laugh out loud earlier as she suggested that buying fake items of designer wear makes God cry (might be slightly paraphrasing there). She said that “fake items are usually produced through child labour, via criminal gangs, *yawns* etc”. The fact is that companies like Gucci love making big wads of cash so when they produce a bag that will set you back £2000 they know that some overpaid, under talented spacktard will nip in and buy it instantly (Victoria Beckham I was thinking there). And then those horrible women you see in the street dolled up the nines in proper chivvy designer shite who read “Heat” or “Hello” or “I am a celebrity, wank yourself off over my living room photos whilst you make me ever richer” go out and buy one. Their low paid friends HAVE to copy them and buy knocked off stuff the same but cheaper.
Most importantly of course is the fact that child labour also goes into designer stuff (like Nike apparently).
It doesn’t make God sad when you buy fake designer stuff; it just makes me want to laugh at how shallow and stupid these people are.! And is Allah a real God.? Sounds made up to me… like the rest of them.!!!
Long one today.!! Wahey.!
