War and all that...


Another day of  WW2.  Will this war ever end?  Since early morning, well sort off, I have been writing and when I look at what I have wrote I wish I had never started this.  What a  load of tripe I write!  It just does not flow, irks me a lot and then I discover something is two years out or in the wrong place. Worse somethings are in twice, how did that happen?? 
So I ate about a third of the cabbage and hope my brain will improve tomorrow.  Except that I'm out at the museum so will do nothing until late on.  Did you know milk chocolate was banned during the war, milk was in short supply you see.  Instead you could have a nut or fruit bar, hmmm, they cost a fortune now.  The British population was supposedly at its healthiest during WW2 because there was shortages of everything, especially fattening stuff.  It must be said however many folks could not get fat as they never had enough to eat before the war, especially if there was a large family.  The Labour government of 1945, there was a Labour Party in those days, not a Conservative 2 Party as now, the Labour Party changed the world for the better in 45.  The NHS, nationalisation and rebuilding houses all while working together for the common good.  Only grasping Tories disagreed.  Thatcher destroyed the idea of 'service,' and working together.  Instead it was every man for himself, especially her friends.  George Osborne works the same way but without the intellect.

Thatcher destroyed decency and respect for others. She couldn't destroy Scotland though.

Perhaps you should have some tripe with the rest of that cabbage, Mr. Ad-Man.

And here's the Labour Party wondering how to reconnect with voters...try emulating the party of 1945 for a start...

Mike, She put money first.

Lee, There is more than enough tripe in what I write as you know.

Fly, Jeremy is the nearest to that, but he is just a bit suspect. Sadly no Attlee is available today.
