Pointless piece of trivia for you, here …
Did you know it’s — as I write — 13:25 in Los Angeles … ?
You didn’t … ?
Neither did I, ’til I had a look at one of me clocks …
««•»»
Which wasn’t exactly what I had in mind, when I started writing this …
I get mildly distracted, when I’m tired: you can tell, can’t you … ?
At any rate, bless ’er, I had Councillor Chilvers wonder into the shop, earlier: mostly yo have a mosey around and to say ‘Hi’.
I don’t think any of the stock caught her eye.
But she was certainly impressed enough to tweet about it!!
And leave me with a bit of a hot tip: seemingly, the planned development that had been refused in Fairfield Road — for more flats, so you know — is being appealed by the developers.
Sounds about right, given Brentwood Council’s history …
Hopefully, though … ?
It’s something I hope gets turned down: that boxing gym’s being eyed up by at three people I know.

Moving on … ?
Moving on, I’ve got to admit, I’ve been emailing the Gazette, again: mostly in annoyance at Eric Pickles’ column: about tuition fees, so you know.
Here’s what I told them …
Dear Sir,I’ve got to admit, I’m writing after reading Eric Pickles column, in this weeks Gazette.And admit, as I’ve written in my blog, I’m a disillusioned Lib-dem voter.Now, I don’t have access to any of the government figures showing the university tuition fee — or the cap on the Educational Maintenance Allowance — as he does.But my two younger sisters are both university graduates: ones still in debt as a result of things as they stand.I think both they — and the law abiding students who’ve been peacefully protesting — wouldn’t call what he’s calling “the truth about fees”, a good thing.And can only hope the current coalition government are voted out at the next election. After making a travesty of our childrens’ futures. And one too many blatantly broken promises.
Here’s hoping that gets published …

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
