The sky is slowly changing from it's deep blue hue to a brighter, more optimistic shade, and birds are gently bickering amongst themselves.

On a faint breeze the sound is carried from afar, an ancient yet seemingly very recent song.

"It's Black Friday. Why aren't you buying more of our shit???"

Another half a dozen reform council union flags spotted as I went about my business today.

A festival of fuckery.

I'm as underwhelmed by this current government as anyone, but fucking hell the vitriol being levelled at Rachel Reeves is unlike anything I've ever seen directed at a Tory chancellor.

Talk about short memories. Half of Facebook would have Kwasi Kwarteng back in charge.

One aspect of the budget - the lifting of the two-child benefit cap - has put people in the comment section of my (old) local paper in absolute paroxyms of fury and disgust. The true politics of envy, begrudging someone worse off than you a bit of extra financial leeway.

Tax people who shout "play some Oasis" at pub gigs so much they can't afford to go to a pub gig ever again.
Tax people who drop litter so much they can't afford to buy anything wrapped.
Tax people trying to make Dubai Chocolate into a thing. Per pistachio.

Going to stop ranting now. In one piece of good news I've just read that BCSSS members (ex miners) will be getting their owed pension money, finally, after many years of fighting l, which will make my dad and several uncles happy.

Going to rewrite Kevin Bloody Wilson's "Hey Santa claus you cunt, where's me fucking bike" so that it now goes "Just shove your fucking flags, up your fucking arse".

Flag Fucker Update: spotted at least two more on the other side of town, same road. Six union flags, paid for by us via council tax, to make cunts feel better about themselves.

I'm pretty fucking annoyed by this, I have to say. I'm seriously considering acts of vandalism.

Our little town now has no less (and possibly more) than four Official Nottinghamshire County Council union flags, within a couple of hundred metre stretch along the main road entering the town from the north.

Working outdoors on a cold morning isn't so bad when the sun's out and this is your office.

There is some pie discourse, but largely American and lacking in steak and kidney, so of little interest.

Right, doing the saying it out loud so it might actually happen thing.

Valley Guitar Repairs is coming soon. Guitars, basses, pedals, maybe amps if I know what I'm looking at. From a new jack to a full setup, I'll be doing it all.

DMs open, I'll set a dedicated account up soon
