So how is life going, well I am tightening my belt for the first few months of the year. The object of the exercise is to put some savings back in to my bank, and pay off any outstanding debts from last year, which consist of my bank loan and some other things, which were put back, due to the on going events of last year. But we are all tightening our belts, as the country is going through its financial crisis. You are fully aware of my views on this subject, but when you have a government run by a load of public school hooray henries and sell out lib-dems, it goes to show how frustrated the nation is.

You listen to all these people moaning about the foreigners taking the jobs, but the jobs in question are the crap jobs, street sweeping, working as chambermaids in hotels etc. The people who moan are usually the ones who do not want to work, and are happy to claim the benefits. Simple solution make these people do the jobs, but it would make Jeremy Kyle jobless as he will have no viewers for his scummy tv show.

So we are nearly one month in to 2011, it is hard to think a month ago we were in the build up to Christmas. We have only another 9 months to go before we have the build up once again. But the build up is for easter and valentines day. Already the shops are selling cadbury's creme eggs, and lovey dovey cards, anything to extract money from the consumers. The latest thing is 3D tv's but technology is moving very fast so within a short space of time these gadgets will become obsolete.

So my first transport event of the year will be next weekend with a visit to the Great Central Railway, for the winter steam gala, although I wont be going to the photographic evening, I went to one of those, and had to endure the wrath of photographers if you even breathed while they were taking their pictures. My camera will be busy that day, as I capture the scene. My fotopic site is having a few changes this year with the addition of a futher 3 galleries, please have a look when you can, but the changes will be noticeable during the course of the year.

So I am going to go for now and I will talk soon TTFN
