The Forde Report : Things The Guardian wont tell you.


As the character
Hector Barbossa  said in the film   Pirates of The Caribbean.
“You're off the edge of the map, mate. Here there be monsters.”

 You know Corbyn could have beaten the Tories. He just couldn't beat the Labour Party.

Inflation Latest : it is now 3 journalists needed to handle one Mick Lynch.

Sylvia Plath Festival : British Gas Missed A trick by not sponsoring this ?

 


Me and Cath went to this event at Hebden Bridge Library tonight. 

It's purpose was to  give  information about October's Sylvia Plath's 90th Birthday Festival .

. One of the poets was  from Halifax, Gaia Holmes ( very good) https://gaiaholmes.wordpress.com/about-me/ 

  I really liked her .Sorta Punk  Poetry from The Moor in Halifax. Splendid

Plus  another  poet from Philadelphia called Katie Ailes.

British Gas have missed a trick ! They really should be sponsoring this Festival .......

My 29 day ban on Facebook : view the offending video.



Rather oddly, I was given a 29 day ban by facebook for posting this video today ' 

It  refers to the current problems of Boris Johnson here in UK 

 Bit of a shame as this month I celebrate my 70 th birthday & we go away on holiday.

 I have appealed the ban , but it's unlikely to be overturned ( it seems , i discover too late, they always ban this particular parody video,no matter the topic )

 The upshot is that I will be posting more here during my 29 exile.. 

Facebook's gain is your loss.......

 

I went for a few drinks at The Upper George in Halifax on Friday . We bumped into a facebook Friend who had a spare ticket for Primal Scream who were playing The Peice Hall that evening . It would have been rude not to go...... Image Gallery
