They’re at it again, those nameless, faceless grey people who have decided that ‘they’ know what’s best for us mere mortals. Just as I’ve trained my little body to accept the occasional glass or two of red wine (‘they’ said I would live longer and healthier!) ’they’ now say it will kill us. The Scots, who are not known for any particular alcohol over- indulgence, nor even have any national related alcoholic beverage to boast of, are now having an extra tax imposed to deter them from buying too much booze. Britain already has the highest tax on alcohol in the Universe and beyond, so what’s that going to do, fund the ever growing ‘Department for the Prevention of Playing Conkers without full body armour’?
Now I don’t smoke and I don’t want to, but tobacco is a huge source of tax revenue. So when ‘they’ decide that you can’t smoke in the privacy of your own carzey because of the smell, from where are ‘they’ going to finance that ever expanding organisation of ‘Language and Culture control’ a tax on the freedom of speech?…………..HEAVY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely HEAVY…… What’s happening in lovely Talbenny mores to the point…..? Are the daffs blooming and the birds singing, is the sun shining and the cottages ready and waiting, all spruced up for the coming season? Don’t think my brain is ready for all the heavy stuff……x

Ellie’s right, far too heavy. Yes, Daf’s are blooming, the sun is shining, birds are singing, Talbenny is even more lovely, and the cottages are waiting for happy guests and I’m here as always to spread my usual cheer???????????????????
