My last few days

So I left you all, a few days ago with a bee in my bonnet, We when you see society for what it really is, which is basically a modern day Pompei, which is on the brink of reaping what has sowed.  More of that later!!!.

So Friday was more of the same, which involved driving round and round in circles during graduation.  Lots of proud parents which nice camera's, wonder if any will end up on Ebay, hmm I will have to have a look, as I am in the market for a new one, as my trusty Fuji bounced off the floor.  I have been using my dads Olympus compact, which is ok, but not the same.

Saturday involved an outing to London, all was going well until I had a blowout on the motorway, but after an hour the problem was fixed and we were on our way.  Well after negoiating my way round London, including a bit of impromptu sightseeing, I even passed the headquaters of the controversial News International.  But I survived and got back ok.  I still do not like London I find it over rated.

On the Sunday I went to Wirksworth for the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway bus gala.  I had a ride on 2 lovely examples of Leyland Tiger PS1/2 variety and they were a delight.  A great pint was had in the pub in Duffield and a great laugh with some good friends.

 The day was slightly marred by the Death of singer Amy Winehouse and the massacre in Norway.  There have been lots of comments about both, and I know that one cant be compared to the other and are devastating in their own ways.  There is something that keeps cropping up which does annoy and that is all these people comparing Amy Winehouse to the death of a solder.
I do not agree with either war that our country is involved with, they are both huge waste of resources, and I do not think we would win either, Afghanistan is in a particular volatile region.  The solders join up, because they wanted to see the world and get in on the action, they know the risks of the conflict, and yes it is upsetting to families because they are losing someone. 

What the guy in Norway has done is truely evil, killing innocent people at will, because someone wants to send a warning message out proclaiming his distorted rightwing views.  As I keep saying we all live on a small planet.  Thing is if the man was to die, then he would be a martyr to the cause.  We have had enough innocents dying at the hands of the extremists.

All extremists, be they be right wing, left wing, muslim, christian, black white Martian, whatever.  They all have distorted idealologies, dreamt up by people who preach to impressionable people who go out to act as footsolders for the cause.  These idealologies are bollocks, they would never work in the mainstream, because to work the views have to move to the central.  Thats why the politicians are all more or less the same, the mavericks get ousted or sidelined.  Let me know what you think if you like.  anyway I will leave you with a nice picture   TTFN
