Holy shit, I nearly hit a brown bear with my car today eeek

I was driving down the Seward Highway to go shooting this morning. After Portage past Ingrahm Creek, a freaking brown bear charged out of the woods onto the highway, directly in front of me. I was going about 65, had to swerve out of its way. That has never happened to me before with a bear, surprised the hell out of me.

It was a depressing time. There was record unemployment (nearly 10% of the workforce).

The old manufacturing industries of the North closed to be replaced by Yuppie service industries n the South - leaving the country divided.

Maggie took on the unions and broke them, but it was a very bloody fight.

She privatised Britains nationalised industries forcing prices up and she tried and failed to introduce poll tax.

In short it was horrible, she was a bitch - but she brought Britain out of the fifties. She did a lot of good, but quite a bit of damage too.

For a real insight into the torpor of Thatchers Britain, listen to Ghost Town by the Specials.

Actually, the fact that she made us all so depressed, brought out some great bands...New Order, The Smiths...in fact I don't think Indie music and alternative comedy would have happened if it wasn't for Thatch. More things to be grateful to her for!
