Premuim beer is cheap. Why? Export strength? What is import strength and who decided I wanted to give the good stuff away? Does Export cost more when drunk abroad? Have I missed something?

Were you in Scotland last night? Close to the Tay Estuary? If so, you might have seen the brilliant greens in the sky (and I dont mean vegetables). Green neon on a bright starry night. Now, I was raised in a place where seeing the stars meant the power had gone down around town. Light pollution sucks. But, here, in this place, i can park my car by the edge of the forest and listen to the waves gently rolling onto the beach, see the stars and pee quietly on my own without fear of being arrested. Other than peeing in peace (fear of jumping spiders), i have only experienced a darker darkness in the middle of the desert (not the one in Kosovo I hasten to add (read back for explanation))

Im not a religious man in the sense that I have faith, or a belief or stuff. Well, not one that I am about to admit to my self anyway, despite a grounding in Christianity as a child. But, no man could build the scene I was standing in last night, and Im too stupid to understand science and therefore dismiss any other theory. So….whoever did this good thing….well done. Drop me a line, or come round for tea.

News – What i did like was Mr Bill Clinton on his visit to Blackpool, England, not enterting into the spirit of eating the local delicacy by dining at McDonalds :-) When in Rome and all that!!!
