I've not been pleased with the interminable dreariness of today's weather though. We had planned to go to Hampshire for the W/E with some friends but the chill and the incessant rain put paid to that!
I have a dream that my.. children.. one day..
will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their
character
... a man, probably in his 60s or 70s, short, obese and angry, trying
to intimidate the young lady, who was “controlling” the queue, with his
shouting: he couldn’t wait because he had to be somewhere to do something very
important (I couldn’t quite catch what).
Though I find such people intolerable, at the same time I truly feel sorry for them. It is a well observed fact and has been written about many times that such angry, rude, disrespectful individuals have had not only unhappy but often violent childhoods. They, generally, felt ignored and disrespected. All that "I'm somebody important" is an effort to convince themselves that they're not entirely worthless. They're not unkind. They're damaged.
I had always been a bit puzzled by the fact that across the pond people call aubergines "egg plants". Earlier this year, a neighbour gave me some of his aubergine seedlings. Some have produced ordinary fruit, in colour and form, but others have produced eggs!
Mercifully, they have the proper taste, despite their appearance!

Perhaps those who don't use gas, electricity, supermarkets etc., etc. can't find it of interest?
