Hello, all you losers
You've got nothing to fear
This may not be the end of the world
But you can see it from here
Caught an episode of Jack Hargreaves’s Old Country on TV today, a real blast from the past & strangely calming.

The subsequent rabbit hole dive led me to this gem from comedians Robert Popper and Peter Serafinowicz:

“Where we going Dad?”
“Did you pack my lunch ?”
“I’m hungry”
“Are we there yet?”
“”I’m hungry”
“Did I mention that I’m hungry ?”
“Still hungry”
“I’m fading fast”

We haven’t left the car park yet!

Road trip. Making the most of the dry weather.

This shit is absolutely terrifying.

Something needs to be done NOW to prevent it getting totally out of hand, although this should’ve been dealt with way before we got to where we are now. I fear the horse has well & truly bolted !

Recommend this excellent book by Dan Ashby & Lucy Taylor who investigated the PCB forever chemicals dumped into the environment by Monsanto amongst others.
It you saw Michael Sheen’s BBC documentary or indeed listened to Dan & Lucy’s podcast ’Buried’ & were as mortified as I was, well worth reading

Time for a rest after a good old walk; chasing his ball & a few squirrels, meeting friends & a little road crossing training session. A good day.
