Faraday in Kernow

At one of my lectures on the baking of pasties I was once asked "What good is it?". I did reply that "one day George Osborne will attempt to tax it".

Mrs Fa says "do you need to keep all those pudding ramekins in the cupboard?" It's on purpose to keep me making puddings to justify keeping them. So have done panna cotta - with raspberries.

If Farage had declared he wasn't going to apply for a landlord licence from a "far left socialist" council, the Daily Mail would have championed his cause. No screaming about "breaking the law". They are protecting their own, the elites, the real money elites.

Nope. Circle of friends were just as weird as me, most were into prog rock and mind-altering substances. My electronics obsessed friend was impressed as this was the first performance where computers instantly transformed live sound from acoustic instruments. He spent ages talking to the tech guy.

Apparently, according to some supermarket ads, this is the "spooky season". Yes friends, it's a 'season' now.
I understand that next, we'll be in "isn't war nasty season".

Friend from university days has been visiting. We walked from Looe to Polperro today and weather was glorious. Then had dinner back in Looe at the Sardine Factory (chef won a course on Great British Menu). Felt a bit emotional as the place was developed from my grandad's building workshop.

This is exactly right. The real "citizens of nowhere" owners of our right wing media will get exactly what they want from a Reform government.
There is nothing more important in British public life than defeating Farage and making sure he gets nowhere near any actual power. Nothing. Doesn't matter who you are.
