Summary: The boat tragedy in Missouri has been on the news....it was terrible....and I have always said that lifejackets should be compulsory when on water......you see people in Chester on the river in peddloes and rowing boats with no lifejackets....it only needs 3 feet of water to drown in....water has to be respected....and those who hire boats out etc should be more responsible for their customer's safety....or face legal consequences. .On the subject of the law strikes which effect hundreds of innocent members of the community should be made illegal....such as train strikes and airport strikes....I appreciate they want better conditions and/ or pay etc but to make the general public suffer is virtual blackmail....they are quick enough to pass stupid laws regarding racism and sexism .... .......... Sir Cliff has been interviewed regarding his case against the BBC.......the BBC seem to think they have the right to ruin lives with no justification and just walk away.......naming people without any evidence of a crime?...freedom of the press?....don't make me laugh...what happened to "Innocent until found guilty"?........I would celebrate if Cliff bankrupted the BBC.... I was browsing through Facebook and saw a photo of Donald Trump walking in front of the Queen...alongside a photo of Obama standing alongside her....with all the usual stupid misguided comments from idiots who obviously haven't seen the full video of the event where the Queen actually shows Trump where to stand.......and on another occasion I nearly caused a riot with a comment I made about The Beatles at our local golf course.....some chap was saying what a wonderful song Eleanor Rigby by The Beatles was....to which I replied it wasn't the Beatles...it was Paul and a string quartet arranged by George Martin... ...the P.C.Brigade have struck again....Punch and Judy shows are too violent for our little cherubs....how long have these been going?...300 years?......because it's rubbish....like circuses...never saw the point. The song this week is one I wrote as a tribute to a guy I had the pleasure of sharing the stage with...Bobby Vee....I opened two shows for him back in 2005 and got to know him....he was the nicest fellow you could wish to meet...
