The Princes in Pictures

This incident begs the question what was the princes protection officers doing! Should they have let some one in to the Hotel room with a camera? If they where searched  where should there not have been a word in the princes ear “ Be careful Cameras”. I think more advise \ protection should be given to a young man with like most young men a wild streak

Is it really new

I was reading this morning about electric cars being charged as they go along by pads in the road! This is not a new concept as it has been demonstrated before on programs like Tomorrows World and we know how long ago that finished.   So why do we keep pretending this is new? why can we not admit our dads thought of it first and give them so credit.

Rain And Floods

Rain rain rain Is its the time of global warming or is it  just the cycle of the Earth. As the old saying goes what goes round comes around.  Years ago we had very bad winters the snow was 6 or  7 feet high in the UK, I remember not being able to get out of the door. Now we have rain, houses are flooded why? Because we built them on low lying land and flood plains. DOH!        Years ago rivers and lakes shrunk now they are on the way back flash foods happen because we have coved the run off's in tarmac and  concrete so now we get Flood warning websites  from the government a sign that they do not think it is going away  http://www.shoothill.com/flood/

Micro Chip every Dog!

Micro Chip every Dog! Great idea total unworkable. The goverment think by doing this they will be able to track the owner of a dog. So what about the bloke that that does not bother how do you tell if the dog is chipped or not you can not tell  by looking at it. Again  do we create an industry costing the tax pay millions to go around and check every dog, what happens when the owner changes do we have  a DVLA style department to keep track of them. Come on Govermant get real  we can not ensure all vehicles are taxed and insured so what chance do we stand chith dogs

How did they do that

My First rant here Who watched embarrassing bodies last night  Channel 4 9/4/2012! they have a Tardis. They got a camera crew and reporter (hygienist) inside a portaloo  that is a bout 4 ft sq  they managed to make it dark despite the  roof  designed to let light in as well.  Well done  this goes along way to the credibility of what you are trying to show.
