A Sunless Sunday In July.

Still Life.

Today is another cool grey overcast sunless day, such a shame we are not getting a pleasant summer again this year.

Spring was gorgeous so probably should not complain, as I did enjoy going out in a t-shirt without many layers of clothes. 

I prefer going out in less layers, as they take ages for Richie to put on me, they add more than 30 minutes to every journey.

Its quiet here right now, it is summer holiday time, the Fijnout theatre is closed, so no loud parties not until September.

Willis, our ex neighbour told me that because of the cuts to public spending, the theatre like many others is losing their subsidy.         

The Fijnout theatre will fuse with another theatre, they and everyone else will

move out.

The building will be sold at the end of the year and in January it will be rebuilt, refurbished and turned into a hotel and disco.

What a shame that terrible mismanagement and now the cuts have finally closed down the last remnants of what was once community based projects.

Apart from the theatre, there used to be a printer’s workshop, cycle repair workplace, a computer collective and a community café, the Fijnhout is the last to go.  

Wedding Jamboree And Murder In Syria..

More extremely disturbing news on the TV as well as radio about the continuing killing of Syrian people.

With no sign of outside intervention, to stop the murder of people wanting a say in their lives, freedom of self determination.

The BBC radio and TV are concentrating on the royal wedding, not just the one coming next Friday, when they promise all day coverage from 08.00 in the morning.

They have spent hours on all royal weddings of the past; today was all about the last one in 1981.

When not discussing this, there have been endless TV programs about wedding cakes & clothes.

The BBC is doing their best to makes as much propaganda for this event as possible.

It is being sold as an ordinary wedding, something everyone can take part in, which is not true.

This is pure vicarious enjoyment; the only way people in the UK are taking part is in paying for it.

Nothing like this jamboree, to distract people from the recession, the thousands of job losses, homelessness and vicious cuts to public services.

Never mind all that, forget that, forget ruthless dictators murdering people, the EU won’t even impose sanctions as it imports so much to Syria.

Never mind all that, never mind the inhumanity lets all enjoy the royal parasites wedding.
