A pretty shit couple of weeks with being back in Level 4 Lockdown and a death in the family. Tired of seeing conspiracy theorists and "the woke" getting air time.
A kind gift from a good friend means another beautiful radio waiting to be polished up.
I am now half vaccinated and have not yet died, grown an additional limb or been contacted by Bill Gates.
I am a confirmed and certifiable nutbar with a penchant for skulls, bones, blood, guts, fire and anything slightly peculiar and mostly bizarre. I also...
Nasty to hear life's been rough. But it's good to see you back.
What doesn't kill you, makes you tougher.
So I can forget about Bill becoming my pen pal??? All that fuss and vaccination in vain? He's not calling? Bugger!
Well my view is the world up shit creek in a barbwire canoe, every ones talking but no one is listening and the ones who run it won't do anything about it because they might lose some money in the deal. when it all go's tits up money won't help them. It 's out of my control so fuck it I will sit and have the good beer and not worry about it all.
Very sorry to hear of your family loss.
Sorry to read your sad news and the covid situation sucks, but glad to know you've been shot once and still live to tell the tale. My deepest condolences to you & your family.

Glad to see your back and sorry for your loss. Its an interesting ensemble of a shot! Every country seems to have there own way of dealing with it. Over here were meeting it head on hoping the vaccine is the route out but with the clown leading the charge I'm not very convinced!
I have had a shot as well, dont know what the fuss is about... wont tell a certain family member, sick of the stupid arguments! hope you were able to have a sendoff for your family member before the restrictions.
@kali66 I have a "friend" who is vehemently anti-mask, anti-vax and is consumed by proving that the whole thing is a hoax designed by all the governments of the world colluding to decrease the worlds population as a way to deal with the global warming that he says also isn't happening....deepest of deep sighs
Anyhooo...."thankfully" the funeral was the Monday before lockdown!
@pdulis Thanks - I'll take it and run with it @radiogirl There was never any hope of me arriving at Sane... @jgpittenger Well I for one will not be answer in his calls....I'm more of an Apple guy
So good to see you're still sparking on all six, mate. I do miss your succinct summaries about the state of stuff. I see someone else mentioned being up shit creek in a barbed-wire canoe, but he forgot the 'no paddles' bit.
Oh it is a grim situation and I am really sorry for your loss. Over here, we are all busy acting like everything is back to normal when it quite clearly isn't. Good to see your artwork hasnt suffered along with everything else.
first off, sorry for your loss. and glad to see you again.
if only to make you feel better, we here in canada, especially toronto where i live, had been in lockdown since march last year. we have opened the last couple of weeks, but a lot of the businesses have closed and everyone is still mandated to do the usual physical distancing, masks, etc. etc. we're still working from home and have limited social activities with a limited number of people. i've got days muddled up as well as dates and times.
you guys were lucky compared to the lot of us here.
@summerfield I know we've been extremely lucky compared to others....the Delta Variant finally made it here but so farthings aren't looking to bad as again we've "gone hard and gone early" with the Lockdown....still, it's winter and not great weather for sunbathing!
Also, thank you very much
We are entering week nine of our level 4 lockdown and I'm completely over it
What doesn't kill you, makes you tougher.
So I can forget about Bill becoming my pen pal??? All that fuss and vaccination in vain? He's not calling? Bugger!

an uncommon thing these days -
why is he pointing up? I like the swirling screen on the radio it makes me imagine that fuzzy sound and old times stations coming in and out the ear.
@golftragic Thank you kindly - long time no see…not that I make it here much myself these days!
