Now look what you've made me do
This title was inspired by Cro's post. I've always wanted to use it and now I almost have the perfect excuse.
Everyone (that's anyone) seems to have taken on an air of defeated resignation this morning. Some people are resigning themselves to ten years of Labour government, others have vowed to spend the rest of their retirement trying not to think about anything political and everyone else is carrying on as normal by continuing to devote their lives to food, plants and animals to the exclusion of everything else.
I think it is down to election-fatigue - or we are just giving ourselves a little respite in the brief period before the next one, which will be sometime before Christmas. Think of it as political hibernation followed by a wake-up call in the middle of Winter.
Some people seem to have simply cracked under the pressure and use a flame-thrower on their garden to reduce greenfly numbers. IF I CANNOT ENJOY MY ROSES, THEN NEITHER WILL YOU!
I intend to carry on as normal by screaming over spilt milk.

I have just been to the airport to collect the Mem-Sahib, and no mention of the election was made at all during the journey home. Is this a record?
ReplyDeleteSounds like a Goons record to me.
DeleteI think talk and read a lot about the election, i should stop it, i have my own troubles here, but some how other people's troubles are more interesting.
ReplyDeleteI am very glad that my troubles are not - yet - as interesting as yours, Yael.
DeleteJust wait, you can never know nowdays.
DeleteTrue.
DeleteDon't waste good ire on spilled milk.
ReplyDeleteI love good Ire poured over my cereals in the morning.
DeleteCheeky !!! I'm very proud of my roses !!! XXXX
ReplyDeleteCheeky my arse...
DeleteI will enjoy old age under Labour.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy? How far under? You know Dennis Skinner is past it now, don't you?
DeleteHummm thought i posted something?
ReplyDeleteEh?
DeleteYes. Scream about spilt milk is the answer, Tom. Not resting like "Rosebud, or Sleeping Beauty" - nor spraying one's Kiftsgate rose with weedkiller (sorry, Jackie! :-)
