"No one" & "Life" being key words here ?

Oh god now & sorry Santerme..( can't you come "home" ) I feel so guilty , even decadent......."Has the plague had many round your way.."


I mean how do you go on knowing everything you say "oh loved popping out for ten minutes into town ...blah blah met so & so...nipped into lah lah..." cuts into the heart as Santerme claws at the windows of his Dorchester rectory....8 whole miles from anywhere & probably cosetting the yellowed copy of The South london Press in the cat litter tray...."You made me do it..you.."


And I'm talking about my poncey choice of delectable curry houses.......Sozza Santerme ...but you made the ill choice of Porchester/Dorchester so get on with it...


I will not allow any long distance guilt bombs to ruin my curry, it was excellent.

It is true life moves at a temperate pace here....


However to assuage my need for a reminder of urbanite living, I am going to brave the Dorchester Carnival crowds (it can be tough out there), find somewhere to park and indulge in a Chinese buffet lunch.


Then I will, because it is a beautiful day, take a leisurely 20 minute drive to Abbotsbury watch the signets hatching and end up at either Chesil Beach, or West Bay reading a good novel.


Hardy country has it's little compensations.

Santerme:


Thursday: History Museum, Kensington, Kensington Park Gardens, Chelsea, Brixton.

Today: North or South Downs in West Sussex.

Monday: Beautiful local 300 acre meadows complete with Nature Reserve, gorgeous Lake and waterfalls and 50 different breeds of dogs.

Tuesday: Hampstead ( including "Heath" )...


Sun/Mon/Tues Weather permitting.


Every area has its compensations, but from half-a-mile out on the edge of London, I honesty feel its the ideal base for returning to the heart of London in 20-odd minutes, going into the heart of the Country in 20-odd minutes and enjoying the tranquillity of The Suburbs ( where most lights are out by 10.30 latest during the week)...

Well I have got my just desserts today, it's my youngest boys 5th birthday.....which is nice in it's self


We started planning a picnic in the park for a dozen people or so , well that was the plan & it worked very well last year.

Another friend who shares the same birthday suggested we double up the party ...Great idea......then another, so now we have a triple picnic party ( thats 40 odd kids )and around 30 adults....JOY...................OH BLO*DY YEAH



I know, you feel for me don't you..........really.


I do feel large measures coming on by 4.00pm



Grr



W**F

    • It’s irrelevant to compare Corbyns vote to Starmers. They were two different elections with two different turnouts.   The only relevant comparisons for Corbyn are how many people voted for Theresa May and Boris Johnson. A lot more in both instances. As such there would be nothing fair about him winning.
    • It is not Labour Party members who elect Labour governments, as it certainly isn't Conservative Party members who elect Conservative ones. It is all those who are not party members who actually make up the sufficient numbers to elect governments. 
    • Thanks for these responses. Yes, Cllr Browning & Cllr Hartley did a door-knocking exercise a couple of months ago. It was Maggie Browning who knocked and I told her that I'd had radio silence from Jon Hartley. She looked embarrassed but not surprised. I have spoken to him since, only after writting to Ellie Reeves, our MP about it his lack of response. He agreed to address the issue I asked about but I've not heard from him since. It's really not acceptable for an elected Councillor to consistently ignore his ward constituents. Since it's clearly not a one-off, I'm gonna pick this up formally. I'll let you know how I get on...
    • If memory serves, Labour under Corbyn got more electoral  votes than Labour under Starmer. So I'm not sure how you can call that being "unelectable"? Under a different and fairer electoral system Labour would have won. I see moves are afoot to bring in such a different, fairer system, presumably in the hopes of stopping Reform winning next time. BTW there was a mass exodus from Labour  by  the local (East Dulwich) Labour party members when Corbyn was kicked out by Starmer. It isn't just Islington who doesn't want to support  a right or centre right Labour party.
