Sajid Javid to scrap Covid vaccine mandate for NHS staff in England

As I was expecting " kicked into the long grass "   

Another win !  As long as parliament vote it through, that will be interesting. 

Even Macron is allowing health workers with mild covid to work. What a hypocrite.

Im confused

 Today has been a strange one. My wife has a bad back. I was assuming her new exercise club she has just started attending was to blame. Then my dad arrives with a bad back and can hardly walk. He thinks he has pulled a muscle picking a stone up off the road side. I stop for petrol and the attendant can hardly walk, and yes youve guest it, she has a bad back and mentions someone who lives up the road also has the same symptoms. But what really has me taken aback was a news story announcing the Astra Zennica ( however you spell it ) has a new side effect of causing a " very rare spinal fluid swelling " condition. Maybe its not so rare or confined to one vax. This is all beyond coincidence. I only report what I see. In that way Im a sophist. I dont research, I just go off what I see with my own eye in this whole madness.

The second confusing situation is people catching the virus a second time. It is happening despite my skepticism. How is that possible ? Maybe one of these episodes of illness is NOT a virus, even if it classed as one. Surely immunity lasts longer than 12 months ? So im back to avoiding people because of this, but having been in close contact with someone who has it this week by pure chance just points out the folly of that stance. I very much doubt I shall pick it up again after only a month of having it though. This whole illness thing I expect is going give an increasingly dark picture for those who took the vax and maybe for those of us who didnt, possibly. The maddening thing is that no one want to even think about the vax being to blame for weird health problems and you know what ? They never will.

And look what pops up on my facebook next...

Here comes the chopper to cut off your head ?

Whernside Manor looking ever more gothic ?

The grim reaper ? Not quite...

This was to be a post about a photo showing a dark figure holding a scythe that appeared on a photo recently next door. Turns out the person was mistaken, and the " figure " turned out to be a branch and an old garden gate stoop. Well it happens to the best of us...lol What was unusual was that there was indeed a old scythe, but how it got there is another story. Probably one of the gardeners left it, but it hasnt been used in years by the look of it, and it has been stored inside because the handle is not rotten.

A handy man starting work turned off a stop tap which promptly blew a hole in a water pipe yesterday, hence we have limited water to the farm buildings today. The whole water plumbing  system is rotten and as soon as any sort of work is done the pipes disintegrate. Everything will need renewing. As the workman said " I dont think the owners know exactly what they have ahead of them " 

 

How do I title this ?

So I was only out of the room for 10 minutes and have returned to just find my glasses wrecked, not just wrecked but dismantled as the tiny screws have been undone. The lenses have both come out which is unusual and doesnt happen easily. My daughter had two friends around but I was in the room whenever they were. As Ive posted before had weird incidents in the past involving wheel nuts and self locking nut undoing themselves, though nothing as intricate as this.

 

In limbo ?

 I bought a new set of tyres for my car this week. As I drove in the first thing I saw was a large sign telling me to wear a mask. When I asked the owner why the sign was there, and pointed out that he was still wearing a mask on the day it was no longer the law, I got a graphic answer I was not expecting. 

" You do know people are still dying ? Its not over yet. This is most likely just a brief respite. There was a 22 year woman who had no underlying health conditions, and they had to slit her throat ( at this point he drew his finger in a horizontal line across his throat ) and put a tube down her so she could breath. Her immune system was shot to bits and she had to learn to walk again "

I was at a loss for words after that statement. Its strange that a man could still be so hyped and afraid after it is generally recognized that is at long last the we should be thinking about getting back to normal. His eyes were so wild, he was in a different world. He reminded me of the people in the novel 1984. There was no hope for him. What was disturbing was the way he drew his finger across his throat. It was un-necessary and macabre. If someone wants to live in this state then you cannot help them.

Just why are we Brits suddenly free of most restrictions ? Political expedience just to help out a floundering leader just doesn't seem a satisfactory explanation. I came across an idea while reading 1984. In the novel Big Brother fears creating marters. They attracted more rebellion, and made the population revolt harder and even at times forget their fear. People were forced to " reformed " then they were  quietly killed much later, when they appeared to be free again and back in public life. When I look at the rest of Europe Im suspicious why we are allowed these new freedoms. 

Unsettling wind, again.

 I cant settle to sleep. There has been an unsettling wind blowing today, creating eddies and swirls of old leaves. Tonight when my daughter went to bed she said she was " scared of the wind " which is also unusual. Today has felt March like and the Jackdaws have been excitedly checking out the nesting sites in the farm buildings. Maybe they are feeling the spring like atmosphere to.

Whats your online worth ?

 Whats your online marketing image ? I found myself asking this when I analyse the You Tube films that seem to be thrust into my sphere that are not connected to my regular viewing. Face Book adverts are very revealing to when you see what kind of person " they " think you are. Apparently Im very susceptible to an online financial romance scan, would benefit from Viagra and are in the market for a " mail order " Asian " bride ". Funeral payment plans are something that I should be looking at to. Seems Im going out with a bang...lol

Of course a lot of these things are generalisations about age, and are just shots in the dark. Its well known that our online searches ect are sold by internet providers for commercial use, and its even beyond doubt that even our conversations are being listened to for the same purpose. This can even happened when devices are turned off. Orwell predicted the tv screen that listened in every house. This is also true as I know a man who lost his right to sell a certain premium brand tv in his electric goods shop after he questioned some internal parts that seemed to do nothing tv picture related. He said it had been going on since the 60's... Most of these seemingly unlikely scenarios are a " given  " to me, but occasionally something will happen that seems beyond even these snooping methods.

Yesterday I searched for a car part on eBay, and up popped a whole page of the same part, but in the middle was a pair of listings for " feet sole supports " which was random, only it wasnt random as I was limping at the time. The side of my foot was hurting from wearing the same foot wear too long. I had mentioned this to no one, and neither had I searched for anything foot related beforehand. I know algorithms can predict what we may need or want due to various clever deductions, but this seemed too much even for coincidence.

If they can hear what is said in our homes, can some also see ? Apparently with 5G a room can be mapped from the frequencies they give out, or worse. Thats not something Ive experience of though, but today anything seems possible and no one cares a hoot.

Ive made a crumble !

After watching my daughter make one I suddenly realised how easy it was to do myself. Ive always imagined there was some special skill that only my mother could carry out to produce something so delicious, but hey, there is no mystery when you know how ! Ive made an apple and wild black berries version here, as you can tell from the crust. They dont however last very long...ahem.
 

King Of The Hill - Tap & Die And Some WD-40

Ive always liked this scene taken from King of the Hill. Today this is exactly what happened to me in the car store Halfords. I tried to buy a piece of wire with certain connections for a CD player and the only person in the store was a teenager who was utterly clueless. Not his fault as the " car entertainment " specialist was not working today. He even looked like this youth but wore a hat. Its becoming a modern curse that kids on minimum wage who cannot be expected to have specialist knowledge are left deal with all customers demands.

 I guess its better than the self service route some clothes shops have gone down, but not by much. Self service payment points are the ultimate insult. The store sells you an item and you still have to do the work of paying by card, and it is work as it rarely goes smoothly and I often end up calling for assistance anyway. No wonder online shopping is taking off.

Breaking news

 I heard from a very experienced and  reliable source who used to be very high up once within the NHS today that children are being admitted to hospital now with c***d. As she pointed out this is not appearing in the news. If this is being suppressed then what else is ? Its interesting  what you can learn here in the sticks as many high flying types retire here.

My Dad told me today briefly about a once famous evangelist or preacher of some sorts who back in the day predicted the UK would leave Europe to escape the downfall it will ultimately face. I shall ask him tomorrow just who this man was, and find out just what he was predicting. Why are we being " set free ? "

There were also some pretty controversial religious magazines around at that time, and he said one was obsessed with doctors being agents of the devil and causing more bad than good. I cant remember the name but shall again ask him more about this. Google should be able to find some record of the publication. Can you imagine a religious magazine making such bold controversial claims today ?

Apparently the UK is being let off the leash next week. Sometimes a dog does not know when the chain is gone. I know many will still be wearing masks around here. Its too late to help them. I have a knew respect for brainwashing. It works however much we scoff at people who are influenced by crazy cults.

Oh, one more thing. There has being new strain identified that has spread from Denmark. What timing !

Fred Dibnah How to climb a chimney overhang at 50+

I stumbled across this guy on YouTube. I remember watching him on TV when I was a child. Filmed well before the days of safety harnesses and obsessive safety culture, it just seems and was a different age back then. Talking of a different age just look at the magnificent stone work on what is after all just a chimney. The pride people took in their work must have been immense. I also cant get over the scale of this structure either. I wonder if its still standing ? Fred Dibnah was a national treasure.

Delicious

 Im regaining my taste for Ribena. Isn't that strange ?

 My vocal chords are no longer feeling rough either.

Thousands of stolen parcels litter LA railway - BBC News

Maybe it's kitsch but...

A picture I acquired from a friend whose other half never allowed him to hang it on the wall after they were married. I love it though.

This photo shows how and why I love this picture. The colours match our old oak ceiling, and it seems as though the whole room could get sucked in to that tornado. Its as though this picture has come to its true home. I get strong attachments to other peoples art. Ive often fallen for it and been too late in asking if I can have it, or whether the owner is still wanting to hold onto it. Its kind of awkward " Can I have your picture ? "

 

1984

 Ive only read the first four chapters of Orwells 1984 but already Im gripped. His no nonsense writing style gets to the point without loosing any menace or detail by doing so. This is literally a " cant put down book ". I was worried by reading his non fiction writing  first I may find myself constantly picking out details in the story that are obviously regurgitation's of his experiences and views and I thought this might get annoying. It passed through my mind that I should have read these non fiction books after the novel, but no his amazing imagination has diverted my full attention to the story.

Boy can he write. His use of commas in a long sentence makes for punchy reading rams home the details in the plot. Although Im only four chapters in the menace is starting to grow and the hopeless situation that Big Brother has the country in is already fascinating. One interesting  idea here is not just the rewriting of history and past news events, but the destruction and reduction of the language. Words such as good and bad become good and ungood and all the words that add a spectrum inbetween are banned making it hard for expressive rebellion without severely incriminating yourself. There is something cold and total about that level of suppression and the novel has only just begun.

I felt very strange watching the news afterwards. Nodoubt I will be posting updates about the novel regular for while. This one is going to good. Fun fact - the main character is not even sure it is 1984 due to the level of suppression !

A news channel I can stomach ?

No Comment news section. Brilliant.

 Calm, sublime and lacking hype. I would have thought I would never associate those words with a news channel, but they are are words ive found myself thinking of while watching the euro news channel. But why do I find this news channel so relaxing ? Relaxing, what am I saying !

The pace of the news stories is relaxed as are the presenters. In fact there often isnt a presenter at all, and news story subtitles constantly run along the bottom of the screen constantly like other news channels, but when they are in relation to world news they are less hyped than say on the BBC where they are always looking inwards towards issues that leave me constantly triggered. Best of all there are parts of the news where there is no commentary at all, just film taken of a news story site. Its often shot amongst and very near to an event. I find that so refreshing. No words to corrupt.

Im not saying that euro news is anymore truthful than other news channel, but the BBC news is so inward looking. And what do reporters report anyway nowadays ? They just talk round and round in circles. I have however noticed much less reporting on Covid persecution in France and Germany, there again there was much coverage of the death of the European President which hardly made UK news. Oh, and unlike CNN they do not have constant adverts pushing the vax. I found that abominable. Not even the BBC would do that.

What Im really saying is I dont find myself triggered watching this news channel and that surprises me. I think this is how the news used to be 20 years ago. Proper world news.

David Sassoli: European Parliament President dies at 65 after period of ...

Yet another David, but apart from that what else is there to said here ? Highly suspect, and one that no one could sweep under the carpet. Surely this must start people thinking ? Maybe not... What starts as a conspiracy theory is quickly proved to be well worth considering at the moment, and there seems to be not attempt to cover up the truth now. Maybe because its to late. And if the vax is only effective for 2 months a shot max then why is it so important for a short term medicine to be forced on all and why persecute those who refuse it now the strain has switched to a very mild one ? Again too late and freedoms will continue to topple because people are thick, just like several ive experienced this week in this valley. They are all educated and middle class and of course retired academics, but thick as planks or just plain scared.

Tomorrow i am going to look at a sofa at someones house in the neighbouring valley. The instructions are and I quote " Give us a ring just before you arrive then we can leave the sofa in the patio room for you to look at and we will keep out of the way " How surreal. Wether I can sit on the sofa or is it to remain behind glass I do not know...lol

NHS doctor tells Health Secretary he won't get jabbed

Ooooh, awkward !  So the vax only offers cover if thats what you want to call it for a month or two.

January

 The taps and cracks in this house sound like conversations sometimes. They have a rhythm of interaction with each other in clusters. There are many reasons for them, wood contracting, water moving in pipes, the Aga cooling ect but then there are the human ones such as my wifes highly annoying habit of clicking her jaws, and my daughter occasionally her fingers. One click from where ever triggers several more in a cluster. Its these clusters that have me thinking there is an order here. Is this house a mimic ?

It feels like Christmas outside tonight. There is an energy of expectation. Ive always found January a powerful and dramatic month when the weather is bright and wintery. The sun rises just high enough to start shining in at the backdoor now. That sunlight and the shadows, it reminds me of the hundreds of years and the many people who have lived here through out history, all their hopes, fears and misery no doubt.

My temper has been awful these last few days. One broken fan heater, one broken tv remote and an outside back door door that I slammed now has the glass window come very loose on it. Actually Im in quite a productive enthusiastic mood, which is odd. Ive found anger also triggers a can do attitude sometimes. Its all energy after all. The phrase " feeling bullish " springs to mind.

Gigi D'Agostino - Complex ( Underconstruction 1 )

January 2012 

Everyone ends up in the kitchen.

 Tonight as I sat in our kitchen just listening to the various taps and cracks that often seem to increase with a waxing moon I realised that every single supernatural happening, well 99% of what happens in this house has occurred in our kitchen oddly. Moving objects, cracking strip lights ( even when turned off for hours ) and strange flapping noises at the window and that eerily cold corner at the breakfast bar that often manifests in a heat wave. All occur in the kitchen. Why the kitchen though ? 

Our living room has an ancient dark oak ceiling. It might be 18th century or older even. This room has a dour atmosphere but ive never seen anything odd happen there despite this. Anyone visiting the house would immediately say thats the spooky room. As children we would perform little plays in it and bizarrely my daughter and her cousin do the same thing. Im finding myself spending more time here listening to the hifi or on my laptop at night. When I was ill I felt the room was a comfort to me. When Im stressed I find a sense of balance in it. 

Maybe the kitchen being the main hub of the house attracts all the energy ? After all if you were a spirit you wouldnt hang out in an empty room would you ?

Reflections on Covid

 What was the strangest thing about catching the virus ? I must say that the illness felt like nothing ive had before. I could feel it inside me, almost like a warm firm giant hand that might decide to squeeze me maybe unpleasantly hard at any moment.  Someone else told me he could feel it searching through his body for a weak place to settle. Myself I felt as though an oil was circulating in me and I could smell it all the time. It was also in my taste buds to, which has left some striking changes in my diet choice.  What scared me most was the fact that it felt artificial and man made. It did not feel natural. I dont know how else to describe it, and how can flesh and blood fight something artificial ?

Despite my fears I have recovered, but what I eat and drink has oddly changed now. Most alarming is the fact I no longer drink Ribena. Its only when you take into account that I have drunk this drink everyday for 45 years that the gravity of change can be really grasped. Maybe my taste for it will return, but like Coca Cola I now find its taste to syrup like. I used to love Coke but the fizz seems to have gone and the taste is too sweet and that syrup taint spoils it. Yes, I hope this wears off in time and people have told me it that it will.

 I have developed an appetite however for meat,proper meat, proper beef steaks and lamb chops. As soon as my appetite returned I told my wife " I want meat and I want it now ! " lol A week of eating little had left me weak, and my body was giving me a wake up call, that and the fact I have a vitamin B12 absorbing problem. This desire for proper meat has remained and im having steak twice a week and lamb chops once a week. Today I bought some black pudding for breakfast fry ups. Its all about building myself up physically again. When you start to feel weak you instinctively know what you need.

My love of tea has returned. Early in a morning when I felt no appetite I would make a cup of very sweet tea that was almost like a meal in itself. Funny really because ive gone off most sweet things. This reversal of my appetites reminds me off the reversed vowels I keep typing. Its as though Im on the other side of a flipped coin. What I once loved I now no longer crave, food and drink wise. Again this may be temporary.

Annoyingly everyone seemed to think I could perish at any moment as I was the nightmare scenario...5o and not vaxxed !!! An automatic death sentence then. Hard core brainwashing was to blame, and I try not to blame my family who were obviously concerned quite rightly for me. I admit I caught a relatively  mild strain though. I am however quite pleased Ive come through this ok especially when my choices flew in the face of convention. My instincts were right for me anyway.
