THIS IS ENGLAND BY FIONA CUMMINGS


Can you believe that some horrific people are leaving their poor dogs outside in this weather? And they are surprised that the next morning they are finding them dead. They have frozen to death. Seriously the worst thing that could have happened to this world is humans. And we are becoming as a race less caring.

 

Apparently, there are less homeless people on our suburban streets than last year but much more in our citties. So, why the citties? May be because they may get more money there as they will come into contact with more people. Also, more shop doorways to sleep in. I just can not imagine sleeping outside in this weather. It makes me shiver to even think about it.

 

Well in our news, regards to Brexit, we have had a warning for our health scaring saying we will run out of lettuce and tomatoes. No one has asked the Spanish farmers where their fresh produce will go? Of course, they will still want to sell us what they have. And then we didn’t panic about missing out on salads, we stooped to KFC, saying they would run out of food, and that didn’t cause mass hysteria, so today, I read school lunches will be affected. Seriously, it will be old peoples nursing homes next. As we have already had our medical scare saying we will run out of medicines.

 

Another stabbing in our streets. This is so tragic. A poor young lad has been killed for refusing to hand over his bicycle. Seriously, what is wrong with kids today? Something urgent has to be done. Someone has to take responsibility for their actions. Parents, teachers, gaming, on line and I would start with schools and that includes making it law that parents have to attend classes too. In a world where both parents work, who is there to support their children? To guide them what they are viewing on the internet and games that they are playing. To talk with them, teach them. How many parents sit with their children these days over the dinner table and talk? Take time to be with their children? Teach them morels? The music industry needs to show some kind of responsibility too, some language and kind of words that are used in music or so-called music these days is shocking. And there is no shame either. I have been on a bus and a train where such awful trash has been played allowed in front of elderly people and young children.

 

We have a drama called East Enders. It’s awful it’s on in the evenings at about half seven eight o clock and the violence and language in that the anger is shocking. Where is the peace in people’s lives? Kindness will become a word of the past.

 

Someone has gone into a food chain today not too far from where I live and took a machete and slashed someone across the face. Thank goodness the police have caught him, but now what? what will they do to him?

 

And then in London a man at a tube station has been stood on so many times on his head he is now in a comber. This is England

 

I think I need to get back into my writing of escapism. Get away from this dreadful world we live in. I certainly wouldn’t want to bring up a child in this world. Not now.

 

So those of you who started dieting at the start of this month, how have you done so far?

Did you manage to get to the end of the month? Talking of diets, did you hear about the hungry clock? He went back four seconds…

I don’t think you should ever go back for seconds. You should just get it all the first time. Haha.

 

If you think you can call your baby anything, you are mistaken. There are some names around the world that do get banned. Here are some of them.

 

France, Nutella. The parents wanted their child to be named after something popular and sweet. The judge ruled the child couldn’t be called after the chocolate spread but instead, Ella.

 Malaysia, Chow Tow. Why you may ask? Translated means (Smelly Head)

England, Cyanide. Seriously, after a poison? Well it was banned.

Parents in Denmark wanted to call their child Monkey. And in New Zealand full stop? Come on…   may be that is because after the birth, they decided enough was enough and no more children? End of. Full stop…

 

I joked the other day saying the word monotonous was a strange one having four o’s in it. And saying it wouldn’t be monotonous if it didn’t have a repeat of the O’s. well todays word is even more odd especially as the pronunciation is so different to the spelling.


Shouldn’t that start with a W?

That is something I would never mess about with. I like to go to spiritual readers, but sadly my trust in those have been shattered of late, some of you will have read my experience of a spiritualist with my friend Pip? Though the reader was a total fake, I enjoyed my friends’ company and still had a good night, but the Ouija board is something I wouldn’t go near.

 

Well it’s that time of week again. It’s our pub quiz. To be honest I’m looking forward to feeling warm. I was out earlier and it was so cold I now can’t get warm. One thing we are guaranteed at that pub, is to be warm. As their fire is huge and we just melt in there. To be honest it’s a relief to just get out at the end of the evening. But then there is the journey home in the ice. The roads paths everything won’t be good tonight. And next week is to be worse.

 

I guess I have to be a wizard in the kitchen now and get a meal together for the family. But before I go remember the footballer, I was talking about last week he was from France and has just been signed up for a team in Wales. Well his helicopter went missing. Yesterday on the beach, two cushions have been found from their seats in France.

Don’t you think that is odd, for only two things to be found, cushions, and two of them, in the same place?
