Homeless Refugees

[Canary42]

We mustn't forget that what we are "celebrating" tomorrow is the homeless refugee couple having to spend the cold and frosty night in a barn for their baby's birth.

Today the Little Englanders would rather see them drowned in the Mediterranean.

Oops, missed that...Sorry, mushroom25. And your name rhymes with "muchroom":)

1ozzy Yes I hadn't seen that, I was trying to divert from the unpleasantries.

[1ozzy]

Me too, peace, love and mung beans brother ;-)

Happy new year.

You can buy anything in Herods.
Gold, Frankinsence and Myrrh, mangers, coffee tables, and swaddling clothes.

[1ozzy]

"Swaddling clothes"?

Good thing Herods don't have an outlet down here, they would go broke in this climate.

[Theland]

AC fixed?

[1ozzy]

Fixed this morning Theland.

No tradies available this time of year, parts unavailable for a few weeks.

Local tradie had a part that was nearly the same, let me take it home.

A bit of modification, I made it fit and work, 3 hours on a tin roof in 35c heat @ 5:30 am, I'm knackered, but, indoors is now cool.

Happy as the proverbial pig in it!!!

Hope you are warm ;-/

[1ozzy]

Expecting temperatures in the high 40's before next month is over

[Theland]

Central heating on. And it due to get colder.
Well done you!

[Theland]

May speak on Early Birds later. Bed now.

naomi; I am personally ambivalent on the matter, but many are not;

Khandro, I can’t access that link, but what he was or what other people thought of him is irrelevant. My point is that simply because someone is ‘someone’ it doesn’t follow that everything they say is valid and hence, beyond criticism. It isn’t.

Very true Naomi, Bob Geldof and his ilk come to mind,

danny, indeed. This blanket reverence is simply hero worship - and that's always nonsense.

naomi; //This blanket reverence is simply hero worship - and that's always nonsense.//
Are some heroes, not worthy of a bit of worship? I can think of one or two. Anyway, we seem to have strayed from the OP, so I'll return to it;

Oh dear! yet another Corbyn faux pas.He just can't help himself.

Khandro, //Are some heroes, not worthy of a bit of worship?

Worship, no – a ‘bit’ of credit where it’s warranted, yes, but equally, criticism where that is warranted.

Difficult to believe that some hero worship others, including Corbyn …. but they do.
