Well done to Brighton Animal Actionfor finding new homes for 7 1/2 thousand battery chickens.
I'm having to consider getting some from The Hen House because I'm a day late!
And they (BAA) were only aloud to take the quota given, yesterday, for which they all had new homes waiting, ahh.
When we get our lake dug ( dug it is ) but no planning...

My eyes are stinging. I hadn't slept more than an hour last night, in crap-3*** Indian hotel until 3am; that stank of stale fags. Now I have sleep deprivation, but that's the extant of my jet lag. 10 1/2 hours to get from Bangalore to London, and four movies! I quite like the flat screens on the backs of the seats in front. They even...

It's good bye then
It's good bye then The hegemony of sitting here with the will to write something, and such gorgeous alternative views to take, on this site,SGs rather than the daily blog. Post xmas blues, not for me, so much to look forward to. A great trip planned for the end of the month.
What of Xmas past now? It just seems like the sale is now on, oh this dear...

I'm sorry, I didn't understand a word of what you posted in my journal, it didn't make any sense. I understand your point of view, but you didn't really address any of mine...Anyway, we all have the right to be different around here!

In Britain, there is already widespread public support for a primate ban:
-At a 2002 public inquiry, Cambridge University failed to convince the government-appointed planning inspector of the scientific validity of using primates in research.
-A 2003 NOP poll commissioned by Animal Aid showed that a majority of the UK population is opposed to primate experiments. Only 40 per cent believed that they are acceptable.
- More than 150 MPs signed Early Day Motion (EDM) 1704 - tabled in February 2006 - calling for a ban on the use of primates.
- More than 150 animal protection groups around the world are now backing a ban on primate experiments
All animals are highly sentient, but the similarity of non-human primates to people means the ethical case for the research is sustainable no longer. The above fact from Animal Aid's current magazine (Winter, 2006) do not show how fickle Government can be on formation of Parliamentary Bills. Much like a two horse race the tables only turn when there are mishaps-accidents, I think we humans call that protest sometimes. Many contrary statements during this year gone, were made about circus animals and supporting their performances, but at the last moment; Acts were created which prohibited animal use. We might thank the Labour party for that.
What a scam protection law can be however. Who needs it afterall- us or the animals? So is there necessarily, moral victory? Yes, because science is built upon heuristics which require the support of new hypotheses and not the support of evidence alone, which might be proof of a theorem today; but tomorrow must allow for further development. It deserves better then. In a sense pro-testing; a positive reflection on the collective decision made by individuals.
Merry Christmas without Cruelty

The Path of Abstraction. Kandinsky, London (Tate) Modern until Oct 1st.
Hello beautiful friends. The exhibition was absolutely ( maybe Tate and Lyle did a deal to sweeten me up) of course, accompanied by my friend, he's her favourite; so brilliant. I needed 4 hours, to capture what he ( Herr K) created over -in this exhibition- maybe ten years. The fugue (she...

Now that the window cleaners have done the outside windows, the view is a little clearer!

My writing is quite non-existant these days. However, I will be returning to school soon, which means my little fingers will soon ache.
Ha ha this bolog space!
We meet again.
I've been getting good practice in the flying circus down in Brighton.
No not a private jet club- or strip club, or marina with swimming babes draped over my fins. Just a simple matter of free flight, litter and discarded jazz mags to one side, and the sheep dip way down the slopes below, Devils Dyke host...

Woah- I am soo braun.
Though I'm back from trucking in a van, a bit like a Yorkie ad - but there's no stopping me - finishing my round (if you were around in those days you'd know the hard on- otherwise, something like, that song of 'I am the passenger').
See here, I drove a damn stupid 5K miles, I feel like a thick...
