What Is Up With People Rant.

I read about this, they have been asked to install 20ft fencing around the whole ground which would cost 150,000 pounds, absolutely ridiculous. Another programme I watched was a fishing port in cornwall, where the people with second homes there, complained of the smell of fish near there expensive apartments, so the fishermen had to move there landing yard to a different area, the world only panders to the few now, have a great weekend

What Is Up With People Rant.
Friendship said:

Your poem revolves around the critique of modern society\'s tendency to prioritize individual preferences over communal traditions and norms. It highlights a growing intolerance for longstanding practices, suggesting that contemporary people often seek to change or eliminate aspects of culture and community that have historically been accepted.

This could stop all wars immediately. The thought of getting shot, wow, just not on.
No doubt some jobsworth in the council has overdone his job again.

An incident that is in a way an allegory for all the incidents in modern society of political correctness and hypersensitivity that we must remember we created in the generation of our children and grandchildren giving too much creating feelings of entitlement, self centeredness and expectations that are beyond the reasonable. By telling them they are all special and that if they are not a super star or celebrity it is not their fault but society\'s we have created a monster with insatiable appetite. Good write Gold

Growth - you\'ve avoided a rut, Andy, and you have my fullest admiration for it.

Nothing better in a social situation than an expresso. But then I do like my favorite of half heavy cream half coffee sugar is optional. A fun read Andy

Tea And Coffee.
Doggerel Dave said:

Very tantalizing write as no specifics. Afraid you might get shafted for advertising?

Come on - just a tip or two (although after your whisky recommendation, I shall approach your disclosure with caution.....)

(Most definitely on orchi\'s side when I consider Earl Gray)

Tea And Coffee.
orchidee said:

Godo write Gold. I drink coffee almost nowhere. And Earl Grey tea smells like perfume, with a nasty tepid sweetness - Bleeurrgh! Not that I\'ve drunk any perfume! It\'s the bergamot - used in that tea and in perfumes.
