Inquisitive child

Our house was warmed by coal fires. In the mornings we could see our breathe in the winter when we awoke and we had frost on the windows.
The seasons were much more stronger than today.
Winter was cold and we had snow every year, Summers were hit and miss, humid. Autumn brought fog and spring rain.
Our travelling was by local transport as we didn't get a car until 1965, an Anglia car 'C' reg and dark blue.
I was always an inquisitive child who ate coal and worms. I guess a whole load of things, so my parents told me.

I remember some Christmas presents vividly.
The first I can remember was a tin motorbike and rider when I was about 2-3 years old.
I remember a lot of plastic cars and lorries, plastic soldiers and metal ones, painted in those days with lead paint.
Dad and my uncle put together  train track on a hardboard table.
This tended to come out on Sunday mornings when Dad would help and play with me and trains.

In those days, the community was quite tight and they all helped each other. Being in a council house, Husband had a different job, such as; Labourer, Docker, Maintenance person, Fords. I think nearly all were manufacturing industry which is why they were in a council house.
The Wives were in and out of each other homes and some kept to themselves.
Our next door neighbour kept chickens and he used to kill them and at times he gave us one for a Sunday Roast. Mr Wiffin was a keen gardner and wasn't best pleased when I used to throw or kick a ball into his garden. My sisters, brother and myself were always frightened of him as he could be a bit cantankerous. He and his wife were keen church goers and we had a church just 100 yards away, where Mrs Wiffin used to look after the hall and reservations and the church flowers.

We had another neighbour who had a daughter and son. They were all very nice and in later years the son offered me a pound for each trophy I got for football. He reneged on that after the first cup as I got so many.
The daughter when I was 4 used to look after us, when our Mother went shopping.
On 1 or 2 of these occasions she took care of myself and my sister.
She sent my sister off playing with toys or in the garden and took me into the front room, where there was a bed or something. She asked me to do something for her. She asked me to go up her dress/skirt and then do something to her. At one stage my sister came in and she sent her away to play again.
This I have remembered quite vividly since and today would be classified as abuse.

Neighbours changed around us on rare occasions and there was hardly any problems, with most being friends.

My Parents were Catholics and Priests still try to rule by fear.
My elder sister was supposed to go to the Catholic school and as my parents were not a practising family, my sister was refused entry. So my Mum and Dad then enrolled my sister into the local and near , Protestant school. The Priests were horrified that someone had defied them, so on a regular basis, they would come to our house and try to get mum and Dad, plus the family, all going back to church. Dad used to tell them, they had no forgiveness and should never had rejected my sister. He was polite, offered them a drink and gave them a donation. Since that time, myself and my brother and sister went to the local school.

Next; Red bike and school start.

My first memories

I was standing in the kitchen at about 18 months old.
I had shit myself and my Mum saying 'Don't worry, just warn me next time' or something along those lines.
A little after this, My sister was born.
My Mum used to sit down at lunch time with me and my sister and we watched I think ' Watch with Mother'. Mum would breast feed my sister and she used to squirt her milk at me, when I got inquisitive, about what was going on.
I remember that milk was delivered by a man, horse and cart, with Urns of milk on the cart.
Dagenham at this time was new'ish ( 1959, I think the houses were built from 1947 ) , but still was quiet and there was little danger, as there were few cars around.
However, the bread was delivered on an electric trolley in slightly later years. I was about 4 years old and pre-school and I found out how it worked, with a lever on the handle and I started it, but couldn't stop.
I had the lady delivering the bread and my Mum chasing us down the road, screaming for me to let go and stop. Of course the lady caught me and stopped the trolley.

These are my first memories!

My Life!

Introduction

The past couple of days I have realised that my kids have little, if any, interest in my life!
An east end family, who moved out of London to Dagenham to have a better life.
My Father knew the gangsters in the east end of London, (but didn't go around with them)who claimed the life of my Dads friend, when my Dad was supposed to be drinking with him.

Also, I have always considered myself to be a complicated person, when actually I think I am on the borderline of something like aspergers.

So I started to think about my life and I can remember back to when I was about 18months old, living in Dagenham, Essex,UK.
I can remember all kind of things in my life, some funny, odd and sad.
Then I thought that actually, people don't know me and my background.

So I decided that I would try and serialise my memories;
My early life and how life was then, with horse and cart for milk delivery, how my parents made a happy home and family, how we had to care for a disabled boy and a thalidomide boy, how a neighbour abused me, being in a war and having a successful career as a financial trader.
Also, about my marriages and my son who died and my sexual situations that just couldn't be made up.

So this will go on for a while, but these are my memories and my life. Maybe one day my children will read and understand me better and even my wife!!

Farage is no mug, but another forward thinking Enoch Powell

Listen to the video of Farage in the EU parliament.
The reactions of the accused says it all.

Many were against Enoch Powell but alot of what he warned has come true. The same will occur with Farage.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_of_Blood_speech

All I am saying is that things will happen.

The EU is a Federal State and is run by a few people. Why can't people see that?
Think logically about immigration.
I have said before that it is a natural progression that the white person is now an endangered species. Why?
Because cultures of different nationality have large families, so it becomes exponential.
Family arrives in Europe and has 6 kids and those 6 kids have 6 kids etc etc.
Now if you look at Calais. They are nearly all African background. Africa has famines and yet have families larger than the Western world, so it won't change. I have Nigerian friends and they have 5/6 children.

So from a common sense point of view immigration MUST be curtailed as much as possible, to survive longer.

But back to the EU.
It's run by Merkel, Hollande (any French Head of State), Juncker (from Luxembourg) Tusk (from Denmark), Charles Michel (Belgium which has almost been broke at least twice since the EU was established), Guy Verhohofstadt ( Brexit negotiaitor-Belgium).
Michel Barnier who is also to negotiate UK's Brexit.

So we have; Juncker, Verhofstadt and Barnier all hate the UK.
They want the UK out as soon as possible, so there is little in their path to control them.
However, there is no rush, because no one will be able to negotiate with the UK until elections have been made in 2017 in several countries.

All of this above affects the immigfration in Europe and what Farage says only repeats Enoch Powell, which he warned before the EU.

I will miss Farage as the only person speaking out. The UKIP party head Diane James won't go very far.

Hinckley point vs Chinese vs Cost

EDF was bought out by the Chinese.

A few weeks after this happened, the internet in the UK was hacked. Why? Because EDF runs part of our National Grid. Coincidence? I doubt it.
The Chinese are buying their way into countries in Asia, Africa, Australasia and now the Med.
Expect the Chinese to hold us to ransom!

Cost of Hinckley has been mentioned by the UK govt as GBP 18 bln.
So using past government projects, expect this to increase to GBP 54bln.

Bradwell which is near me was closed and cleaned up with spent Uranium being transported by rail through our town at 1am in the morning. Now we will get a new Nuclear power station, with new Uranium. Again built by the Chinese. So we expect an influx.

What does this mean?
1. Learn Mandarin
2. House prices go up
3. Work in a chinese takeaway!!
4. Expect an influx of chinese goods which will cause us an economic downturn unless they are very cheap!
5. Screw the EU single trade agreement/market. We will have China, Canada, Australia, NZ and numerous other countries, but mainly China.

Spar supermarket must be run by arseholes

Ok so last week I went to Spar and asked if they wanted some change. They obliged and said I was a 'life saver'.
This week I was told ' it isn't allowed' we have had a directive from Head Office not to take change from customers and the woman pointed out that she was caught on cctv for doing it when there was no directive!
This is some little squirt at Head Office, sitting in their seat, picking their nose and arse trying to think of something to justify their job!

So in future Spar, when you say you haven't got any change, not only will I say tough luck on your stupid rules, but I will also say take your goods back I am going elsewhere!

Stupid shits!

UK Government must process an interim Census

Census is obligatory and every 10 years. In todays world with the EU etc we could have another 5 million population and growing very fast, so how can the government get it's figures and funding needs better?
1. Process a census
2. On line and postal
3. Ancestry.com will have better data
4. Numbers of the population now can be compared to the government budgets, which will show a mismatch and black holes.
5. No one listed in the census, doesn't get NHS or benefits
6. Budgets can be calculated more easily by using a per capita baseline.
7. Tax's can be adjusted accordingly or cuts.
8. Will slow down illegal immigrants if they can't get benefits
9. The whole of the EU needs to do this now

If you are a corporation you would need to adjust all financial budgets, strategies etc based on the markets, this is the same thing!

Politicians just don't have a clue!!
