What's a blog then

In the Times I read the headline along the lines of Primates discuss merging Anglican and Catholic churches.

Blimey I thought evolution was moving apace but Gorilla's and Chimpanzees talking about returning religion back to before Henry VIII's time was pretty good going and then....

I realised it was some of the cardinals exploring ways of uniting part of the Anglican church under the pope. The right wing Anglican group being those who do not want Women priests, do not except gay people in general - but especially priests etc.etc. although they do allow their priests to marry, use contraception etc. and they want to work out how they can practice religion under the leadership of the Catholic church whose priests should not marry, should all be men, there should be no gay people in the church - especially priests (and we all know how well they have managed that situation), no form of contraception is to be used.
Although they do both have something in common - neither church has ever been involved in politics ...no honestly they haven't

Perhaps they should just hand that one over to the real primates and leave them to sort it out......

Discovered during last nights rain that our roof leaks - it's the first heavy rain we have had since the last bunch of winds etc. E noticed it dripping through a joint in the plaster board - Insurance time I think because the roof will need to be looked at and a sq. yard section of ceiling replaced.

Interestingly while I had my head in the loft I noticed a wasp nest the size of a beach ball - maybe one for the pest control just in case unless I am feeling brave - I am sure it was not there last year....

A busy weekend clearing out some unnecessary stuff accumulated over the years and now the bunker (4'6'' high space under the extension) is all neat and tidy so it will be ready to store garden produce and conservs......I still have some of Septembers potatoes in there in perfect condition.

It is hard going through old photos and trying to remember the names and faces in them - family members it's not to bad but pictures taken of friends are a little more troublesome on the little grey cells.....

America's representatives on the world stage are always going on, and so does Tony LapDog Blair, about dictators who spend all their money on arms and nothing on infrastructure, housing, education etc and yet I have just been watching the repeat of the Top Gear program where they drove to New Orleans and guess what.... yep you guessed it - houses are still in ruins, streets have trees and wrecked cars on them, schools still need to be repaired and how much is America spending on bullets and bombs - criticising others for what they do themselves.....
