https://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-news/dwp-strips-220000-people-pip-28916901?utm_source=linkCopy&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar Considering the detestable ways that the DWP use, to get as many people off of Benefits as possible, I’m really hoping that all of those whose PIP has now been removed, will fight to get it back again, as NOT having PIP, with Universal Credit, will…
I write when the mood takes me, and my health allows!
It’s been far too long since I wrote anything here. My health has been abysmal triggered, unfortunately, by the second, follow-on Astrazeneca vaccine I was given, to help me fight against getting Covid., on the 11th June, 2021. Frankly, I would have been better off not having it! I would certainly be healthier than I am right now. My face, head, and neck wouldn’t now be permanently scarred,…
Chapter One: It would be hard for most people to believe the events that I am about to tell. I sympathise, as I – who actually experienced it all – still find it unbelievable, myself. To begin with, my name is Susan Shelley, and I come from an average background, with the normal amount of parents, brothers, and a sister, plus various other family members that an average upbringing…
The dusk fell over the little town of Farndon and, if you looked carefully, you could see an old man walk slowly down a side street, towards the main road of the town. His name was Ben, and he was the town’s Lamplighter and, every evening, just as the light was beginning to fade towards dusk, he left his tiny cottage on the outskirts of the town and, with a wave to his wife, Edith, he would pick…
To Do, or Not to Do? That Really IS the Question . . .

[Yes, I know – they should be cancelling each other out, shoudn’t they?] – I begin to wonder whether I should believe…
And Nothing Changes . . .
It has been far too long since I wrote anything on here. It’s not as if I’ve been leading a dizzying life full of trips, and shopping, and all those other things that people used to take for granted, but which I couldn’t do anyway – in fact, my life has had very little change from the last time I posted anything!I’m still sheltering, as I wait for my first vaccine jab – which I’m assured will be…
Even while our government continues to give us back our ‘freedom’, there are still people dying of Covid-19.
The tally is gradually lessening, but there are now hotspots of the virus re-occuring in places where people have gone back to work early, or where they gathered illicitly to have ‘fun’, while everyone else endured, because that was the right thing to do.
Now that the lockdown has started…
Well, this is an historic moment, that leads to our freedoms being curtailed until after the Corona Virus is beaten – but, with the government we have at present, I worry about how much of it will be handed back at the end?
I guess only time will tell!

Good evening, The coronavirus is the biggest threat this country has faced for decades – and this country is…
Regina’s Song by David Eddings My rating: 3 of 5 stars SPOILER ALERT! I started this book, not really wanting to, as I’d just finished ‘The Losers/High Hunt’ by the same authors and, while entertained, wouldn’t be reading them again, but, as is my rule, if I own a book, I should read said book – if only the once! While I enjoyed Regina’s Song, there were aspects to it that really niggled as I read it:
The Night Owl turned 2 today! Where has the time gone?
1. GENERAL ELECTION MANIFESTOS MUST ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS AND HUNGER.
The 2012 and 2016 Welfare Reform Acts were seen through Parliament by government ministers who sought to force the unemployed into work by imposing inadequate incomes and punitive laws designed to treat them as if they are at work.
Examples are:

Video suggests anti-Corbyn smears not cutting through as Labour lead polls
A mass gathering of scouts – hardly a typical hotbed of Labour support – blindsided the BBC’s Breakfast programme this morning with a chant of ‘Oh Jeremy Corbyn’.
As the chant grew louder, the reporter appeared in rather a hurry to end the…
Please share this widely, so that the lies and deceit practiced by the BBC nowadays, can't keep the truth out?
Read this, and weep for the many thousands deliberately subjected to this cruelty!
