I'm in Hampshire too, just got sleet. Usually head out to Waitrose for free coffee about now. Might make my own this morning

It's become more and more apparent that we are declining. More rapidly as momentum is building up. The very wealthy are trying to collect all they can to save themselves. The impact on the rest of us is further acceleration.
I was always interested in the decline of civilization.

I tend to agree with you. Ordinary people are patted on the head and fed bits and pieces by all sides

Relax, hopefully everything will work out well for ordinary people. I'd hate to think that millionaires and billionaires will continue to bankrupt the west

You cared enough to comment on loads of posts, bless you, sending hugs

Obviously you do..

Happy Birthday 🎂

Such a brave man
