What Israel is doing now is unconscionable
The attack by Hamas terrorists on settlement camps in Israel a few weeks ago was truly barbaric. The taking of women and children into Gaza as hostages is unjustifiable and shocking.

Last night… Continue reading What Israel is doing now is unconscionable
6th December-a date I always remember
The 6th December, today, is a date that I will never forget. This is strange and unusual because I have an appalling ability to remember dates. Words and phrases are no problem for me.

I am fascinated by the vlog concept, the idea of making something interesting or useful from the ordinary, everyday, banal. Some of them have done pretty well, some have disappointed.
