Today I am quite cross

This may be a slightly controversial blog, a few bits of news have made my cross today and yesterday.

The fuss the British public have made about a monkey coat and a whale are frankly unbelievable. Now don't get me wrong using fur in this day and age is terrible and It is sad about the whale, but the news this has generated is massive, I imagine a lot of people who are worried about both items were probably discussing it over a Corporate Death Burger or other food that has been factory farmed, I am not tarring everyone with the same brush I just thing we need some prospective on stuff. I mean tonight the lead item on the evening news tonight was about the whale, tucked quietly behind the main piece was this article about the fact the police have DNA records of 24,000 10 - 18 year olds, despite them never having been cautioned, charged or convicted of an offence.

Yeah, yeah I know if you have nothing to hide you have got nothing to fear.

No tip tonight I am too cross, normal service will resume Sunday


BTW for the record I have been a veggie for about 10 years.

Nothing else to say,I am sure someone will mention the Whale in the Thames or the sad news about soul legend Wilson Picketts death. so I will leave you with:-

Sorry but I can't help it

i have been looking back over some of my posts and realized that my spelling and grammar is terrible , I do have a bit of an excuse for this, I have NF1 one the symptoms of which is mild dyslexia/dispraxiya( dyslexia, bloody bone idle more like :-) )

Anyway spell checkers sort out the spelling but not the grammar, It can't sort out when I miss words out either, so thanks for struggling through my blogs.



Dan's Eco Tip/Fact/comment of the Day

If every household in the UK swapped a normal bulb with an energy efficient bulb we could close a power station.
They also last 10 -12 times longer than normal ones, you can save up to £57 over the lifetime of the bulb

Do'h I loose

Well I was going to..

write about cats tonight but I see Fox has been and bloody nicked my idea......sorry only joking, in fact I was going to write about the fact that during the day I often think of something interesting ( no, honestly i do) I say to myself that would be good in the blog latter. So I get Will to bed, get a glass of wine or sometimes whisky or vodka or very occasionally something more herbal ( I have to go in the garage for this but I have a Wi-Fi connection so thats book*) sorry where was I , ahh yeah I sit down at the Mac with what ever relaxant I am partaking of and can I remember what I was think would make a good blog, can I feck.

*Book is what I believe the "Hip Kids" are saying instead of Cool these days, this comes from the fact that if you type cool in a phone with t9 (predictive text) the first word that comes up is book.



Also I have noticed that it is the fashion to have a regular bit at the bottom of your blog, though for the day, whatever.

Mine is going to be eco tip/comment/fact of the day, I will keep this going until I run out of tips/comments/fact( or get bored)
