Sorry, but every now and then, my account seems to be frozen. Yay. When the credit card bill turns up, there's the SG services payment, so I come back and find my password changed or something... Am I THAT forgetful? Or is it an automated service? Or has someone hacked me? Or what?
No matter: back once again is the renegade... Read More
I have allergies; sort of a hayfever thingy, a bit of asthma, that sort of thing.
Hayfever is one of the worst. Summer means less Excitement and sunny fun, more a species of irritating nasal twitching, tickling, shorter breath and unknown red birthmark-like patches appearing in the skin of my back. Delightful.

Too much to report, and I don't want to do it here. There are people trying to have fun, you know?
I'm coming home in a few days, maybe I'll sort out a link to the write up I'm going to give the last few days. Maybe not. we'll see.
Funeral to attend in another town, so no posts for a few days. Let's hope it goes smoothly, no-one gets hurt, no-one tries to break it up or anything. Rubber bullets and tear gas are not the answer to mass grief. People have been killed by "non-lethal" ammunition.
Round here, crowds can get treated like riots.
Everyone's a little afraid of each other, and when... Read More
