I am very mad to hear that the oil refinery strikes that started at the Lindsey Oil Refinery got support by many others around the country.

After 6 months of the same theme, I have decided to use Atahualpa which I must say is looking great. Another usable 3 column theme, where I have space to arrange bits and pieces around the site. I have added a flickr plugin that shows the latest photos that I have taken . The snow [...]

If your are a Tuatara , Henry has had his first child at 111. I could not imagine a human having a child at that age, a man would possibly die from  having sex at that age. Perhaps in the future when evolution has developed even further and we may live much longer.

A Chinese restaurant in Finchely road , which started very empty soon developed an atmosphere of contagious coughing, the oil took precedence in the air  that started the wave.  I was with a friend and our conversation went into how we would organise society to the benefit of everyone . Our ideas are very different [...]
