What a mess this World is getting into - now that the Olympics are over we now have rising tensions over the Russia / Ukraine situation, with the USA and Europe siding against Russia. Further east we have China and Japan facing each other and again the USA are in a quandry, this time they are duty bound due to some treaty to support Japan, totally opposite to supporting China against Japan during WW2.
In the UK it would appear that we now have a new set of rules for Immigrant criminals !!! Rumanian arrives here, eleven days later he steals fifty odd bottles of whisky, gets caught, taken to court, but when offered a Community Service Order gets off because he does not understand enough English to follow the Supervisor's instructions !!! I wonder how he was able to brief his lawyer, or did he get legal aid and an interpreter - one way bus ticket needed - or a Hercules over the North Atlantic offering an open door policy.
Tram Jam, great fun in the West End of Edinburgh when an ambulance stopped on the tram tracks to deal with a life threatening incident - tram out on a fun run could not pass so chaos ensued with traffic piled up for ages. Someone even suggested that they fit road wheels to the trams so they could detour round such hold ups.
Have ventured out, on four wheels and two wheels having had the all clear from the Dr., but not fit enough for anything dramatic yet, so a further respite for the staff.
