I am now completely bemused (what's that I hear, situation normal then?') I was up very early this morning and watching CNN who broadcast footage of Mr. Trumps interview with the Sun newspaper journalist, I watched every word of it and was appalled as I usually am at it's content when Mr. T is speaking. This afternoon Mr. Trump has stood on a podium beside Mrs May, our Prime Minister and called his own televised and I suspect viewed by many of the UK population words as FALSE NEWS. Now he is of an age to be experiencing short term memory loss but I'm not far behind him in number of years on planet earth and I remember every word of that film footage. He IS President of the United States, he is not a magician who can change the past and unsay those damaging words, his calling them false news holds no credence, no truth, no reversing of them, he must think we in the UK are as blind and accepting as those who support him possibly because and not despite all he has done and all that he is but I rather think he is wrong. Not one word can be unsaid and not one word could be forgiven!0

I've long thought 'Zaphod Beeblebrox' whenever I've seen DT or heard his infantile widdlings.
The purpose of the role of the President of the Galaxy/ POTUS is to distract attention from the people who are really running the show.
ZB/ DT was superbly good at his job.
Ignore the orange idiot with the combover and the frighteningly plastic-looking glambot companion. They are just the smoke & mirrors, the real power brokers are somewhere deep in their entourage or back home in Washington.
Which was apparently built on a swamp because no one wanted to give up decent land for something as reprehensible as government.Every increased possession loads us with a new weariness.

I'm glad of it, I can only do what I feel is best in my tiny corner of the world, try to keep that true and right the rest of the world can do it's own thing without any help or input from me. Head down and try your best to make it through the other side is a very good motto, no?0

Apparently Trump said it was fake news because, he said, the Sun hadn't included any of the nice (and excruciatingly embarrassing) things he'd said about Mrs May. He was then told that in fact they had, so then he said it wasn't fake news after all.....
Interesting about the Hanseatic League that the German cities which used to be members are still allowed to use an "H" in front of their registration plates , e;g;. HH for Hamburg and HB for Bremen (can't remember the others offhand - maybe HBH for Bremerhaven?
anyone know?).0 -
Mar, what fuel do you burn in your stove?0
-
Smokeless eggs kittie. Wee grenade shaped thingies.. last for ages, only needs topped up and cleaned once per 24 hours. Good heat. It can burn anything though and we have used ordinary house coal but that is dirtier and doesn't last as long.0

I know your fire is on 24/7 mar and you are in a colder climate but about how much do you use in a winter and do you get those smokless eggs delivered in bags?0
