Hang onto your hats.

As John Prine says "It's a big old goofy world". It seems The Evil Empire (the American Administration whom Nelson Mandela has called 'the greatest threat to world peace') has us all in its claws, so it’s back to the old game of creating an oasis around ourselves our friends and all we bump into; generating serenity and love as best we can ( with, of course, a wolfish grin on the face and a suitable dash of mischief).

Maybe it has always been this way.
Maybe everything is perfect just the way it is.
Maybe the bastards are out to get us.
Maybes get me nowhere...but I fancy some hot buttered toast. (but what about cholesterol and the starving millions?)

'You can't win' is one way to look at it. The other is 'you can win'. Then again 'what's winning got to do with it?'.

Happy June to friends far and wide, the foxgloves, flag Iris, sea pinks and fuschia are blooming like billyo down here in South West Cork and, as they say, 'the weather is good.....it's raining'.
