  • My Life and Times

    I was born in 1939 BC.
    That’s ‘Before Computers’.

    Luckily I survived the following events in my life, such as

    World War II, The London Blitz, Rationing, and worst of all… Archbishop Temple’s School.

    During the mid 1950s I was enjoying Rock ‘n’ Roll and being a first generation teenager, when suddenly, just like Elvis, I found myself in uniform during ‘The Cold War’…and then

    I became ‘a family’. Which meant that I sort of missed the ‘swinging sixties’, but still managed to look a complete prat in the 70s, just like everyone else.

    During the ‘Thatcher Years’ I lost my hair and a lot of people lost a good deal more. My career fluctuated to say the least as I was demoted, promoted, fired and hired a number of times, but still I managed to stagger on into a welcome retirement and to celebrate 60 years of happy marriage.

“We deserve better” … but … (continued)

Posted by Big John on July 15, 2020

Masks, face coverings, muzzles, call them what you like, the bunch of incompetent idiots running ruining this country suddenly think that they may help to protect us from the dreaded virus. At this rate it won’t be long before they go as far as to ‘nick’ you if you dare to leave home without wearing one. It wasn’t that long ago that ‘Bojo’ and his mates were telling us that we didn’t need them.

What next ? … Well don’t expect any ‘joined-up thinking’ or even good old common sense any time soon from the confused clowns who gave us a too late lockdown and are now opening up and throwing vast amounts of cash (which we don’t have) at some sort of crazy ‘lucky dip’ rescue plan, which they seem to think will help control the virus.

… “Don’t hold your breath!”
