Haiti

As we all know the events in Haiti are unfolding before us as a disaster of truely biblical proportions.

This must cause many of us to question our beliefs. Whatever religion, there is a presumption of a supreme being........ Does this horrific event cause us to ditch our belief, or does the world wide response to the tragedy reinforce our belief?

Cllrs interests

So who has declared, and who has not?

Holidays

With the current weather, after moaning about 'how badly' local authorities, central government, or ''THEY'' are dealing with the situation, many of us will be turning our minds to holidays.... Me, I've booked up, paid for, and am now looking forward to a few weeks away in the summer. The big question is where are you going?

Is it a Uk Holiday, or somewhere more exotic? Should we worry about carbon footprints, or should we regard a holiday as a break from worry and just use it to recharge our batteries, enabling us to put more into life when we return?

And before anyone asks or snipes, I'm Uk'ing this summer!
