No boat's gonna row

Just checked my feet and the Levee did not break today!

Below, a tv reporter & cameraman today in Mytholmroyd.............

The last few days have been daft down the Valley

Because of Covid restrictions , the only people on the streets are TV Reporters.

I have seen at least 3 different channels reporting here . Not here to help, only to "feel our pain" and photograph it !

liberal smiles.....

Mr Corbyn refused to have dinner with Trump. but Johnson backed him for the Nobel Peace Prize.

This is all you need to know about the UK establishment and liberal politics in general.

Saying that , today I bought a great big greasy tub of Brylcreem . The first time in 20 years.

"The Starmer Effect"?

Los Ojos de Pancha

Veronica Fernandez Zimnoch lives in Argentina.She's a Lawyer in Buenos Aires She's my Great Grand Niece.

Her Grandad, & my Uncle, was Antonio Zimnoch (my namesake) . He was ten years younger than my Dad. They last saw each other in 1939 when my dad was conscripted into The Soviet Army ( later to desert and join the Free Polish Airforce in UK.)

After the war, my uncle married an Italian lass and moved to Argentina.

Apart from the occasional letter , they never contacted each other.Although ,oddly , they died within weeks of each other in 1984.

I still keep in touch with Veronica via facebook.

Antonio Zimnoch : my namesake.
