Birmingham – a city to be reckoned with

We left at 9:00 a.m., a bad time as it turned out because there had been a serious accident on one of the main roads and we had to take quite a long alternative route so by the time we arrived at a parking place just by the Bullring it was close on 11 o'clock. We spent most of the day sight seeing. I had been to Birmingham many years ago and I quickly realized that the city has been transformed....

Visit to Stamford and Oakham

We left at 9.30 am and arrived about 11am on yet another sunny frosty day. Stamford is an historical town used as a major stopping point between London and York. It has over 600 listed buildings. It is an affluent town with a good selection of high quality shops. I would have thought that the good and the great might want to retire there. An exceptionally well presented church. Enthusiasm comes...

I took four pairs of trousers of which...

See more here if you wish. To my Vineyard Church for what I thought was a service but...

A Court case without a court

Not being able to sleep last night, I arose and had a look at some of the programs stored on my Sky box.   I found a series featuring John Cleese who had been given a series of 10 programs by GB news to do what he liked.  He was called something like the Dinosaur Hour. He was talking about wokeness. Before I start, I should mention that it was extremely difficult to hear what he had to say...

Cease Fire? + a room full of strangers + An amazing Frome bookshop

Dreams about Vegans The day began early with waking up from a dream. I was in a very large camp of Vegans. They had cooked mountains of vegetables which they laid out in steaming bowls on trestle tables and most of it looked the same. I sat down at a table where, strangely, meat was available and I was offered a portion but did not take it because I felt that they were doing it just out of...
