Hrm.
So, I’m feeling much less neurotic you’ll be glad to hear. Although my
fingers are sodding freezing. Perhaps I should stick the heating on.
The main thing I wanted to comment on is the whole BNP thing. I mean, that
scares me witless frankly – that the BNP got in. And not only that but the BNP
didn’t just get 1 seat, or 2, they got 3 – one of which represented – not the
centre of burnley – where I could understand it at least.
No, a small village.
Full of fucking racists.
I’ve spent years telling my mum that that *kind* of racism just didn’t seem
to exist here. That the KKK got kicked out of the UK. And what do I find – that
I was wrong. There *are* people in this country who classify people by skin
colour. *sigh*
I’m angry and I’m frustrated.
And there’s not much I can do about it at this point. *sigh*.
So. Yes.
Christ I’m cold.
Yes. Anyway. In better news, I went swimming today. Managed a staggering 3
lengths? We think? Anyway, everyone’s been saying “is that all” – but frankly
I’m quite pleased with myself. 3 lengths isn’t bad for someone who’s not swum at
all in 7-8 years. And last time they did swim it was just across a canal,
wearing a life jacket, having fallen in.
So, I’m knackered and quite pleased with myself…..anyway, I’m going to
collapse in a heap soon.
The pond is now done, btw. Attempt 2 was successful.
