           Just  heard  someone  say  "I  don’t  understand  people
            without  TVs  cos  without  a  telly  what’s  everything
            pointing  towards  in  your  house?"  HA!  Well,  my  seats
            point  towards  a  picture  window  that  overlooks  the
            children playing in the garden and lots of other streets n
            houses not to mention the self-painted art on the walls
            and the random collected antique and vintage curiosities
            I’ve collected and the stacks of old books and the sketch
            pads n scrap books for instantly jotting down flashes of
            inspiration and keeping little found objects of interest. . .
            . . . . . .. yeh . . .. I should get a telly

           In the Hospital yesterday there was a big poster entitled:
            "Frequently Asked Questions on having a CT scan". One
            of  which  was:  "Why  do  I  have  to  swallow  this  white
            stuff?"  Err......?  Is  this  genuinely  part  of  the  procedure
            Doctor? Or are you abusing your position?
           It didn’t allay my fears when I was finally called into the
            scan room and a Doctor who looked about 17 locked the
            door and said "Take your bra off, lie on the bed and grip
            this  firmly...it’ll  help  me  get  it  in."  Ooh  er!  Carry  on
            Doctor!

           I’m  getting  tired  of  hearing  the  phrase  "It  might  cause
            offense" When did causing offense become one of the
            most  feared  "crimes"  possible?  When  did  people
            suddenly gain the right never to be offended? Why can’t
            people sometimes just bloody well be offended?
           Is  this  yet  another  stealthy  means  of  controlling  people
