"Awoke today and found the frost perched on the town.
It hovered in a frozen sky, then it gobbled summer down
When the sun turns traitor cold...
I get the urge for going but I never seem to go. Meadow grass is turning brown
Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in." Joni Mitchell

Many thanks to JCB’s Lord Bamford for donating £200,000 to Reform. HMRC seem to think he owes them up to £500m from money hidden in offshore accounts, but why pay tax when you can give it to a bunch of racists instead?

My partner is a Marine veteran of the First Gulf War. He is very conflicted about his service because he felt like the govt lied to him. Veterans Day is a strange day for him.
Today, I'm sending my thoughts and thanks to all veterans - those conflicted, those proud, those in between.
