Some odd observations
Ive had a really good afternoon out at Wray scarecrow festival where people build scarecrows to a different theme every year. Its a spring tradition for me to visit, but this year things got very odd indeed. I always call in at a church that has a second hand book sale to raise funds. There are a very wide range of books and I expect some are donated by the students of the nearby university, as some are rather niche and academic.
Well this year I found two disturbing books. Two books that I was shocked to find in a church, and nobody seemed care, or notice. The first was a book called The History of Torture ! The second was a book of ritual magick adorned with the painting of a topless well endowed Egyptian woman. I couldnt believe what I was seeing. Had someone placed these books as a joke in the church ?
The area is close to a place known historically for witchcraft called the Trough of Bowland. Some of the scare crows had a pagan vibe to them I think. A few often depict the Green Man whatever the theme is every year.The village of Wray has many houses built in the 1600's so is seriously old. The stature of the houses is odd and I would say they are uniformly built for much smaller people back then. This is the first year ive noticed this though.
We came across a group of people having a picnic by the river. They were dressed up as semi scarecrows. Not enough to be funny, but just enough to be creepy. People can identify as anything nowadays so I didnt stare too much, as they would probably enjoyed it too much.
Finally, and this disturbed me the most was just how ill young people looked. The teenagers were so pasty and pale. They looked as though they had spent months indoors away from the sun light. Their skin look thin. People aged up their mid 30's looked so faded, and their skin looked thicker and pock marked or more leathery. Face after face showed the same story. The oldest people looked the healthiest and actually had some colour to them. Many of these people were short and squat and unhealthy looking, waddling as they walked.
Today has been disturbing and I feel we are in a very strange reality now. In fact I am now thinking this all sounds like a Lovecraft story. Either I am going mad or something very disturbing is happening.

This cannot be ignored
This story has to be told. Its very unpleasant and sad, but I think its important because it is another dark piece of the jigsaw that is this valley.
Directly across ths dale from us is a farm. About 5 years ago the farmer retired as the death of his mentally troubled daughter just destroyed his will I guess. She died after drinking cleaning fluids in a mental health facility where she stayed sometimes when at her worst.
So a young family decided to rent the farm and had 4 children, but the 4th was born with a horrific rare genetic condition that meant she was prone to blistering in her throat and air ways. She is a toddler now and has frequent stays in hospital. She is currently at home on oxygen to help her breath this week. She has not been in a good way recently, and i fear tragedy number 2 maybe ahead for this valley.
Now what are the odds of this connection occurring ? The burning of the throat seems to have been repeated for the new occupants of the farm. It shows a persistent malice in my eyes. Or maybe its just a coincidence ? Its going to lead to death twice no doubt.
Two tier Britain
Well the news coverage has gone mad. Two Jews in London have been stabbed and immediately the police have classed the event as terrorism, and it certainly is. I have no disagreement with that at all. But its strange how many other suspicious attacks that are on non Jewish people are classed as " mental health " problems and " isolated incidents. Here the word " terrorism " will not be used, even when it appears to be obvious.
A good example was the South Port knife attack in which three little girls were killed by the son of an African migrant. The Police lied for nine months about the event not being terrorism motivated. Then we find out the guy had been researching have to make poison such as ricin, and had been viewing terrorist training videos. But the police focused on his interest with Hitler and violent acts in general. Then they played the mental health card.
Britain is all about a two tier system. Hence " two tier Keir Starmer " or as i call him Queer Starmer...lol
I noticed today how many politicians are calling for action and expressing shock and horror at the events. Well we are the country that has let in nearly 50,000 un-vetted mystery men and payed to keep them housed and integrate them. Many are from violent African countries, often Islamic and we wonder why there are anti-Semitic attacks.
Of course governments are scared stiff of Islam and will never act directly to stop the root of these attacks. They would rather talk the talk and pay for extra security for Jewish areas. An extra 25 millions worth. And now every ones happy. Well not really.
Another interesting thing to consider is who gets " fast track justice " and who doesnt. Who goes to jail so fast their feet dont touch the ground, and who months later have not yet being charged.

Is Dent cursed ?
Ive just learned what exactly happened during the tragic accident that occurred here recently. It turns out the child ran and fell over banging his head against a pickup truck in a freak accident. It was captured on a security camera. The registration plate was 888. Not 666 that would have been a step too far.
What are the odds of that ? Well it got even more bizarre this week when the cousin of the deceased child tripped over in the house and banged his head on a fireplace and was rushed to hospital. They are alright im guessing.
What must the family be feeling now ?
What manor of events is trying to playing out here ?
I feel an existential air of despair.

The Vigil was a fantastic film. Well paced, spooky and not too exaggerated or smothered in special effects, but this is not what im here to post about. Every now and again a film comes along with too many coincidences. This is exactly what happened last night.
So on deciding to watch the film I thought I would go for a bike ride around the valley. It was totally deserted, except for a Jewish family taking a walk. Now that is highly unlikely where I live. It rattled me to start with, but then seemed like a sign of something larger.
On watching the film a demon scratches the floor breaking a finger nail off. I had an accident a month ago working on my car where I did the same, add to that the fact that a man filled with guilt at a child being run over is at the center of the films story... and it all feels connected.
I dont know how all this works, but novels and films seem to tie in past and present events into their fictional plots. Maybe even future ones ? I once heard an analogy that its like we see the wrong side of a woven picture, and it looks chaotic, but on the unseen side there is a clear picture that makes sense.
Could this be why some actors are superstitious or those involved in theater ? Is acting a ritual ? Is a story nearer to a spell or conjuring? The more I see the more I question.

Here are some more interesting facts about the couple who are at the center of the tragic accident that occurred last week. Just two weeks ago a deranged man who lives in the center of the village attacked the womans car with a staff he carries, as he said she drove too fast. He has done that to someone else recently too. Was this a premonition, or a warning of what was to come ? The vehicle in the accident was not a tractor, but a pickup ive now found out.
Said Mr Deranged is of course is a new comer, and apparently has a conviction for GBH. What a nice addition to the village then. Looking back he tried to strangle the same woman outside the pub in an altercation. Its worrying how routine I type this. He now has boards inside his house windows as someone threw a brick through one of them. He also tries it on with people wives so they say, hence the brick I guess.
The couple also used to rent out a house just down the road. At the time it was a holiday let. It must be 10 years ago now, but I clearly remember a man staying there going up the valley of Deepdale and hanging himself. He used the man who ran over the childs rope. I also heard his reaction was " that was my best rope and I never got it back " A strange thing so say in such a tragic situation.
Strange what sort of picture can be conjured up when you start to join the historical dots of tragedy.

Hmmmm.....?
Write the word DENT in capitols. Hold the piece of paper in front of a mirror. Next turn it upside down.
What does it spell ?

There has been a tragedy just down the road. A builder / farmer has run over his 3 year old grandson with a tractor. Over ten emergency vehicles raced the scene, and a helicopter, but he died sadly. It doesnt seem real this morning. The birds are still singing their dawn chorus and people continue their daily work. What else can they do ? This is awful, but also so resilient. Nature is resilient.
Each time I think about what has happened I feel a bit worse than before. Anyone who works with machinery knows this is their worst fear. The guilt, that awful guilt. How can anyone ever recover ?
Worst of all the childs parents were on holiday abroad when it happened...

Organ transplant (I cannot tell you how much this title has amused me )

Suddenly. Starkly
90% of BBC news readers and reporters are non white females.
The BBC news has become obsessed with foreign news, and it seems it is nothing more than a service to keep those in touch with whats going on in their own country back home.
Women TV presenters chatter among themselves about news stories in a magazine type format.
There seems a definite disconnect with native British men.
Now who would have thought it ?
It is, as it is I guess
Adverts have taken a dark turn. What do I see advertised on my TV now everyday ? Funeral plans on a monthly payment, charity based lotteries, disturbing animal cruelty charity adverts, government Social Security adverts telling people to update their claims if their circumstances have changed and even today an advert telling how much easier my life will be with a digital ID. Its depressing.
Meanwhile the roads here are crumbling. They are only just fit for a car and if serious work is not done soon they will be impassible unless you have an SUV or pickup. Not even this weekends Dent Run has prompted any repairs. Im sure there will be trip ups and falls. Maybe then something will get done ?
The two village pubs are grinding to a halt and houses are still not selling. A pub window is even boarded up as it appears to have blown out in last nights wild weather. We just need some graffiti to finish the job.
On a positive note a road east out of the valley has been repaired after a land slip. Its been well over a year in the doing. As with anything council related it is so slow. All Britain works this way. Protocols and schedules which take no urgency, or local needs into account are the problem.
I am now going to fix my wife's car that has broken a suspension spring. Wish me luck.

Greetings ?
These last few years ive noticed a little gust of playful wind greeting me as I walk up to our house door. It rustles through a beech hedge for a second or so and no more. It stops once Im passed.
This also happens when I return home from a journey.

Ive gone through a transformation. I cant bare to watch the news for more than 2 minutes without just despairing and changing channels. Sometimes I only make it seconds in. Its all passed a point where I can relate to it anymore. Everything is so see through.
On a brighter note what sounds do I now hear on awakening ?
Jackdaws cackling
Blackbirds gabbling
Wood Pigeons cooing
Woodpeckers pecking
Chaffinches tweeting

Its a wet grey morning...
No one is above the law. That's the mantra here in the UK at the moment. Its supposed to reassure us but many have been above the law for decades, and only now are being thrown to the wolves and public opinion.
Thats a bit worrying. Of course the media cannot say or grasp this. Each institution takes its turn to have our faith in it destroyed, or weakened. Celebrity, politics, church leaders, schools, pop stars ect even Royality all have been exposed as being corrupted. There arent many groups left. Can you think of any ? You better not mention who or you will be in deep trouble.
Apparently we are all equal now ?!

The seasonal energy is rising in my core.
*****
Monday morning at 8am...BBC breakfast morning show. The first words I hear " A bereaved mothers long running battle... " I immediately switch channels without even waiting for the sentence to finish. Why does the BBC think I want to start my day by listening to this misery ? They love it, especially the long nosed Sally Nugent.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire though as an extremely annoying advert is on the next channel involving a man sat at a restaurant table and a dog is along side him eating a plate of food as if human. It quickly gets worse as the camera pans behind to show they both have wagging tails. Are they humanizing the dog or de-humanizing the man ?
This may sound silly but the equalizing of dogs and humans is going on in society. I see it in people walking dogs and their attitudes already. How long before the human devalues themselves to an animal status ? They already resort to an animal status howling and shrieking if they perceive their dog is under threat.
There was a third annoyance but ive forgotten what it was. However I remember turning over to YouTube. The ultimate apparent cure ?

I feel funny...lol
I must have it bad because when I took a picture of her from the TV she did not look at all like how I see her, or how she appears to me. Weird. My mind is seeing her differently. Is that what love is ? This photo is the most accurate though.
Get out !

I wonder...
You never know whats coming. Yesterday a helium filled birthday balloon blew into a building of cows which spooked them causing a stampede, and one to even jump out over the gate in fright. Its a good job I was not in the building. The plot thickens when I picked up the balloon as it was dark blue and it looked like an older persons color in my opinion. I know of a man who has just had his 85th birthday family gathering and his daughter married that person who is the nut case further up the valley who caused me to have to chain the field gates. It would be about right if this balloon was linked to him and his family...lol
Imagine dying because of a dis-guarded balloon.
Life is a joke.

Over heard Americans
Last night in the chip shop cafe " Didnt Jesus once enter a church with a whip when he was really pissed off or something " ?
I know its a stereo type but many Americans ive heard just dont stop talking in a whinny droning voice. On and on they go. Im not sure how that line cropped up...lol
Didnt some one once call it the " eternal sea " ?
Right now the media are bringing up the fact that Starmer may not last politically this year out. If that is so then we shall soon have a leadership challenge election in the Labour party. Once again a leader will emerge who has not been elected by the general public.This happens with increasing frequency both here, and if you notice around the world.
In the 80's government leaders seemed more stable and lasted their full term. The last Conservative government had 5 leaders during its reign. What a joke. Its like musical chairs. Every move a leader makes is scrutinized and analysed with equal intensity by 24 hour news. The smallest development is spread out into days of news coverage. It seems everyone has a short boredom threshold including politicians who constantly want to tinker to gain popularity as soon as a little trouble arrives. on the other hand...
Labour won a historical landslide but today the party is turning on its leader ( and no surprise there ) How quickly a huge win crumbles. I guess thats how democracy works, and its a good thing as long as the new person actually delivers true change. The problem is they never do so it all seems like a farce. Whoever comes next must deliver change. The problem is that to elect that savior will require us to vote in faith again in a system that has let us down so often. If people are tired enough they will give the wheel one last spin, and I think it will be the last one.

Just like Billy ?
Yesterday I was given quite a start. My daughter sat with one hand holding the neck of her jumper against her face with two fingers. This is exactly how my late granddad used to sit in that same pose. He died long before she was born though. So where on earth did she learn that position from ?
On another occasion years ago when she was maybe 7 years old I watched her walk across a field with her hands held behind her back, and leaning slightly forward. That was another trait of my granddad. As ive previously said she never met him and I was genuinely shocked, though she found it amusing.
Its not unusual for character traits to get passed down the generations, but physical postures like these ? Saying that I drum my fingers and have been told that my great granddad did the same. Of course genes pass down physical traits and character traits, but do they pass on habits like these and if so why ? as they are surely pretty random, and nature only does what it needs to do and no more with great efficiency.
Maybe the answer is "un-natural " Maybe some parts of the past relative literally enter us at times ? Ive stopped short of using the R word here. At what point might you think it may become appropriate ?

Ghosts. Are Poltergeists Actually Demons?
Thursday, 15 January 2026
Small wins. Well actually quite big.
We must acknowledge small wins. I pointed this out to a YouTuber who makes lots of content on the dystopian state that the UK is slowly becoming. This awful government has made two huge U - turns on very controversial issues that would impact our future recently.
The first was cancelling the planned inheritence tax increase for farmers wanting to pass on land after their death. I think someone told the government that future food supplies could be in jeopardy.
The second was a U-turn by reversing a compulsory new rule that would require a digital I.D be necessary if you wanted to work.
We have more power than we think.
Other stupid ideas ahead will be quashed as well I hope. If we dont acknowledge small wins we shall go mad.
Ive noticed that many YouTubers have mental health issues meaning that some corruption of viewpoints may be occurring, but doesnt that apply to everyone ?
