Under the current useless bunch led by a buffoon, I agree with you. Something is bound to go wrong.


Meanwhile, in Wales, ...

Oh wait ....

We are not all in the same boat. We are in the same storm. Some of us have yachts. Some of us have canoes. Some of us are drowning.

In moments of stress my father would brew up a pint of sugar, condensed milk and tea, screw a John Player's into his face and say, well sod it, this won't get baby a new frock and then he would crack on. And in some cack handed, back to front, half arsed fashion, the problem would be solved.

The old fella would moan every inch of the way, but it didn't take much to see that secretly he was having a whale of a time.

But I am not so sure about things now. Brexit seems to be sorting itself out, the flu probably won't make it to summer by which time the economy will be up and running and, well, it doesn't seem natural somehow. Jogging along on easy street is ok for Johnny Foreigner, but Britain's national dress is sackcloth and ashes.

Still, I am sure that some thing will go wrong  :)
