ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Gone very dark here and thunder is rumbling. Spitting too. Just managed to nip to the offy and back before it starts. Bank hols tomorrow so might as well have a drinky. Be a waste otherwise.

Yes. A drink later would be good. I deserve it, I've been up steps most of the afternoon hacking back a huge mountain of Forsythia and Ivy for my elderly neigbour (well he's older than me). I've now got about half a ton of the stuff piled up and waiting to burn and there's more to go!

At least you can have a good fire with it. You can't beat a fire.
Torrential rain now here, thunder and lightning. 7 seconds between the lightning and the thunder so it's a couple of miles away. I got back to the house just in time.

You're only about 70 miles south of me, and it looks like it's moving north.
Bring it on! I love a bit of thunder and lightning.

Me too.
I think it is to the south of me, I must be on the edge of it. Lots of repeated lightening flashes. It's really good.

I was once very close to a lightning strike, and it sounded like a handclap, amplified to a gunshot level. I swear it made my hair stand on end.Yes I had hair in those days.
