To honest I wouldn’t know about all that but hey whatever. I am still limping along, but with a few more music projects in the go now, plus my new non-music project. “Can I get my old car through the MOT cheaply” A plan has been drawn up and will commence shortly. I think it is unlikely to work but one never knows unless one tries of course. Go me hopefully.

I always wondered why the ancient greeks never got started with steam power. Heron, the great inventor of Alexandria, described in detail what is thought to be the first working steam engine. He called it an aeolipile, or “wind ball”. His design was a sealed caldron of water was placed over a heat source. As the water boiled, steam rose into the pipes and into the hollow sphere. It was considered a toy apparently. I suspect the Greeks were too busy with Wine, Philosophy, Debating, Sport and bumming each other inbetween wars. Maybe it was something to do with the heat? Who knows. At the time of writing we have rain, its very welcome.

I like this track but it has never really kicked off like some of the others.

Meanwhile at home in the good old U of K I think there is a real threat to stability in the UK now. I am not sure Labour actually knows what to do about it now. They are so desperate to hoover up votes they have put themselves in a position where many moderate Labour supporters are drifting away. The head of the UK security services has stated that currently the biggest risk to UK is Right-wing extremism still followed by influence from foreign actors like China and Russia.
All this loony anti-asylum seekers stuff being stirred up helps no one. Nor does Temu Hitler Uncle Nigel with his divisive rhetoric. Let’s not try to out fash the fash dearest labour party.
A race to see who can vibe with lowest common denominator is really not a great idea.

And what of the Donald, who knows where that is going? Stay tuned folks for the next excruciating episode.
