Escape From the Country
There is something very hurtful about having the concept you’ve been embracing being used as little more than an irreverent comment by someone whose ethos you despise. A few days ago, I emigrated to Sweden. I was on one of … Continue reading
The Sick Man of Europe
A hundred-plus years ago, that nickname was applied to the Ottoman Empire. It was over-stretched militarily and financially, and facing internal unrest on both ethnic religious lines. Today, it is applied to the UK, and it is applied literally. The … Continue reading

What I Did on my Holidays
Sorry this is a bit late, but I’ve always had a bit of trouble with deadlines. I went to Gibraltar last month (Pictures to follow) February’s View picture is also up
New Year, New Hope
At least, that’s the theory. A new year is often seen as a time for renewal and revitalisation, a time for resolutions to do things that have not been done before, a time to start something afresh. Plenty of studies … Continue reading
