Ferry Ride

Long time no viddy old droog!

Hope that you are enjoying Sweden. You certainly seem to be doing so. A change from Kichijoji, eh?

I am back to Tokyo soon, via Barcelona and Latvia for a while first, but hopefully Japan by February.

I'be been very interested and impressed with your comments and observations on your sustainability blog as well as bastish. I beliece that you WILL make a difference as a dedicated man.

Good luck with your studies, your blogs have You certainly opened my eyes, or rather reawakend and encouraged me to do better, ikely many others, we could be legion. Lets massage mother earth, not rape her.

An aside: while you are in Sweden, you have many an opportunity to visit much of Europe at rock bottom prices. Most destinations will cost under 60 pounds for a round trip for 2 people!! Airport tax included! Check www.ryanair.com

If you decide to visit the hell-hole of a 52nd state of The US, The UK, head for stanstead, and a 30 min train ride into central london. We can arrange accomodation.

Hope you like!
Some light relief:

Here's a long dead local poet espousing English frustration! Hope you enjoy.

Meditation on the A30 by John Betjeman c. 1952

A man on his own in a car
Is revenging himself on his wife;
He open the throttle and bubbles with dottle
and puffs at his pitiful life

She's losing her looks very fast,
she loses her temper all day;
that lorry won't let me get past,
this Mini is blocking my way.

"Why can't you step on it and shift her!
I can't go on crawling like this!
At breakfast she said that she wished I was dead-
Thank heavens we don't have to kiss.

"I'd like a nice blonde on my knee
And one who won't argue or nag.
Who dares to come hooting at me?
I only give way to a Jag.

"You're barmy or plastered, I'll pass you, you bastard-
I will overtake you. I will!"
As he clenches his pipe, his moment is ripe
And the corner's accepting its kill.
