Now enjoying Malta sun & sea.
A life behind me of curious change and interesting people.
From Mancunia and yet travelling in both time & space here.
Join me for the craic & childlike adulting.

ICE agents in the USA are now conducting 50 Shades of Grey operations.
Any shade not pale enough results in some very dangerous non consensual acts, with no safe word!
The aim seems to be a whitewash of America & its history.

While other organisations brush off minor mistakes, the BBC spends days self-flagellating like a mentally-disturbed medieval monk - but only if the criticisms have come from the right. They literally couldn't give a toss if they're being attacked from the centre or left.

Hello team. How's your SAD doing this year? Mine is making me feel like an inside out football sock forgotten in a half term sports bag.

Times remnants across nature's canvas.
Gone, yet clinging on.
Not forgotten & likely ready for resurrection as another holiday home.
The view.
The sea.
The sky.
The future is bright.
A mixture of centuries constantly stirred by adding people.
But what a feast for the eyes, the soul & heart lifted!

Calypso's cave.
I understand how Odysseus was here for seven years, captivated by beauty.
Hers & Ramla Beach.
Gozo.
Island of a thousand viewpoints.
The Knights submerged breakwater can be seen.
Slave ship stopper.
The square outlines at the rear of the beach on the right, a buried Roman villa.

The Gambia.
A close friend of mine who has already built so many charities in the north west UK.
He worked with me on one for years and is truly a force of nature.
A man of talent & trusted by so many.
Nadeem, you inspire me.
Inshallah this will be yet another gift to humanity.
Stay safe.

Celebrity TV.
As soon as you see 'influencer' you know it's Z list.
A programme destined for daytime TV.
There is always one actual celebrity they blew the budget on.
The rules?
Explained by a presenter who looks vaguely familiar.
But the plastic surgery has created a smooth mask.
Unsatisfying TV.

In 2001, terrorists tried to destroy the White House with a hijacked plane. 24 years later, the president of the United States accepted a plane from people funding terrorists and destroyed the White House himself.🔄

The Sociopath-In-Chief couldn't be bothered to even turn his head in the direction of a man in the midst of a medical emergency who collapsed in his office. Completely incapable of empathy, the EPSTEIN Files can't be released soon enough.

The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.
Milton.
Is the world outside our mind real?
We only have our senses to tell us.
The essence of life today?
Schrodingers cat was never sure anything outside the box was real.
Perhaps Paradise is Lost if we awake?

How green is my valley?
Today I am just standing here.
I feel my life has been hard but in my old age I am blessed.
To live here?
Pages of paradise.
Six years & it never gets old.
Sadly I do.
But my heart is hugged by a view that my eyes drink in.
Even in rain I love it.
Rarely rains!
Never frosts.
