About Me

My photo
No Fixed Abode, Home Counties, United Kingdom
I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

News, Views Etc . . . Fits & Giggles

So, he's mentioned Bum, in passing . . . because I mentioned them the other day? Tragic! Re-posted a link to the 'interview' in which he apparently uses words he's never, ever used ever, in conversation or on his blog, and re-iterated the old 'collector' hackery! Is he that stupid? Are his followers that dim? I guess they must be! He's clearly that insecure!

Onward and upward . . . a few links; new ones, not two year-old stuff edited by someone else to try and make me look better!

Another mention of GW

A polemic against the Nottingham mafia's rather sickly bandwagonning the other day is frankly well overdue.

In the course of the article you'll find the use of a new accronym; 'SJW', according to Wikipedia its definition reads . . . "Social Justice Warrior (SJW) is a pejorative term for an individual who promotes socially progressive views, including feminism, civil rights, and multiculturalism."

Because who wants civil rights huh? Who wants to treat women the same as men? Who wants to respect the religious or cultural beliefs of his neighbour? Why try to build a nicer, better, more tolerant world? It'll be those bloody red-pinko' commie rat-fink, socialist swine, no doubt! The abbreviation is quite clumsy, but it was invented by intolerant, reactionary, meat-faced, drive-at-the-crowd, Trumpundbrwreakshiteers, so it was always going to sound a bit forced!

Although, if you say it with a hard, southern drawl, it sort of slides snakelike off the tongne! Eesssjaydubeeyah! - The 'silent majority'; demanding regressions since the dawn of time!

Another Obituary

Sadly another collector has left us, although - as well as toy soldiers - he seems to have collected pretty-much everything! Joseph Manalang

And, because I've not been doing the Friday 'show dates' posts for obvious reasons, I've not been properly thanking people for their contributions, which sometimes disappear into the long queue for any length of time . .

. . . so a quick acknowledgment and thanks to both Brain Berke and Chris Smith who have sent all the above follow-ups, bits and bobs and other stuff in the last few weeks, some for soon, some for laters! Recieved with thanks guys!
