“The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living” This was written by a 21 yr old female who gets it. It’s her future she’s worried about and this is how she feels about the social welfare system that she’s being forced to live in! These solutions are just common sense in her opinion. Put me in charge . . .. Put me in charge of benefit payments. I’d get rid of cash payments and provide vouchers for 50kg bags of rice and beans, blocks … Continue reading →

Two planes landed in England the other day

In the West Country Posted on by

Wayne Rooney has just negotiated a £30,000 PER WEEK rise on top of his already grotesquely enormous contract. Two planes landed in England the other day:   One carried a group of grotesquely over-paid, immature, under-achieving football players, who complained they were tired and missed their families after two weeks in five-star accommodations.     The other carried the coffins of 7 fallen soldiers who had spent months away from loved ones, living in tents in a war zone; they couldn’t complain. These soldiers earn £15k to £30k a year, not a day. If you believe that the England team … Continue reading →

In the West Country Posted on by

It doesn’t take MUCH to decide to be healthy! However there are times when it takes a shove in the right direction to show you HOW to be healthy and stay that way. There are SO many ways we are bombarded with adverts and media that says “Do this and have great hair” or “Do that and have great skin” and on and on!! Much of this is pure hype and no real substance. Apart from any other health issue the type of products available on the high street and supermarket chains are often not as good for us as … Continue reading →

“The Very Hungry Mouse” and the leopard! The extraordinary scene was captured by photography student Casey Gutteridge at the Santago Rare Leopard Project in Hertfordshire. The 19-year-old, from Potters Bar, Hertfordshire, who was photographing the leopard for a course project, was astounded by the mouse’s behavior. He said: ‘I have no idea where the mouse came from – he just appeared in the enclosure after the keeper had dropped in the meat for the leopard. ‘He didn’t take any notice of the leopard, just went straight over to the meat and started feeding himself. ‘But the leopard was pretty surprised … Continue reading →

With thanks to Nigel Risner! I read this week the remarkable story of a young rugby player. He had a nasty injury, was forced to retire, and was paid out £500,000 in compensation. For some people that would have been the end. However month after month he did his therapy, trained lightly and low and behold 9 months later he was told he had made a full recovery. He handed back the £500,000 and this week played rugby for England Did it matter they lost? How proud Steve Johnson was when he put on the shirt ran on the pitch … Continue reading →
