Circumstances. Lets just say that all the women in my life are ganging up on me, though they don’t know it. Just when everything seemed to be going so well for a change…

A while back there was a bit of a controversy over the suggestion that St George should be replaced with St Alban, who is seen as more “inclusive”.
There’s an irony at the end of this particular farce, though.
Saint Alban was a pagan soldier in the Roman Army stationed in Britain. His exact background is unknown, […]
Nevertheless…
In Flanders field the poppies blow Between the crosses row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe: To […]
Via USS Neverdock, OUTCRY AS MUSLIM M&S WORKER REFUSES TO SELL ‘UNCLEAN’ BIBLE BOOK [Daily Express]
A MUSLIM store worker refused to serve a customer buying a children’s book on Christianity because she said it was “unclean”.
Shopper Sally Friday felt publicly humiliated at a branch of Marks & Spencer when she tried to pay for First […]
A Cliff Richards song that hit #1 at Christmas a few years ago. Somehow I prefer it to Mistletoe and Wine.
Well that’s me done for the year now. Assuming I don’t die from gluttony over christmas, I’ll be back in the new year with more… um… whatever it is I do around here. Merry christmas […]

It is obvious that VB has had a shady past. Every […]
I’ve been hearing a lot about scotland wanting to be independent again, the most recent being a link from a comment on this post at BBC-Biased.
Flags are a vague sort of hobby for me. I’ve done the EUSSR and I’ve done a few others. They speak about a country. It was an interesting exercise to […]
I recently read a prediction that this generation would be the first to attain extreme longevity, if not immortality, and that some people reading the article in question would still be alive in a thousand years. I personally think that’s pretty cool, but at the same time I face something of a philosophical quandry. Many […]
I’ve decided to put this under spiritual stuff as well as general, because… hey, it’s a spirit. Besides…
No longer drink water exclusively, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach - 1 Timothy 5:23

I got “tagged” recently by Canker (whom I think I’ll start reading) but I must confess I don’t normally take part in such games. It’s not that I’m one of those dreadful people who thinks anything fun or entertaining is “populist” and therefore beneath them. Far from it. U used to be pretty good at […]
