  • 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.

But is it all legal ?

Posted by Big John on September 11, 2019

Here is a quote from a blog that I posted on 25th September 2012 about the bunch of arrogant arseho…. our elected members of parliament

…”who probably consider themselves to be a ‘patrician’ elite who were born to rule, just as they believe that all we poor plebs were born to ‘tug our forelocks’ and vote to keep them in power. If you don’t believe me … How come leading Tory toff, Boris ‘bloody’ de Pfeffel Johnson, better known as ‘Bojo‘, is being tipped as our next Prime Minister?”

Well, Bojo made it, and it appears (note that I say “appears”) that he is trying to carry out the wishes of the majority of the British people who voted for ‘Brexit’ more than 3 years ago, despite finding himself in the middle of an unbelievable parliamentary ‘shit storm’ brought about by the near anarchistic and puerile antics of the far from honourable, “Honourable Members” !

Gawd only knows how it will end  .. ?.. The good news is that bonkers ‘Squeaker Bercow‘ is at last, returning to the circus where they found him, and shed loads of much needed money is suddenly promised to appear out of nowhere. The bad news is that the same old gang of self serving, back stabbing, slippery chancers will still be sitting on those green benches; and most of the promised cash will still disappear down the usual ‘black hole’ ! … and … I could be wrong … but, I suspect that …

…  “plus ça change” !
