Something I really should have posted as the title for the post on Monday considering my rant about referees!
My son went to Jo Jingles today. It was one of the kids birthday's there. He refused to sing Happy Birthday. For ages, he has wanted a birthday of his own. Coming up to my birthday, he wanted his own birthday. He was told his was after mine. Well, I have had mine, and he wants his. So when another child had his birthday, he felt that his own birthday had been stolen. Which is sad, though it does make me laugh. Anyway, I am to look forwards to the game on Saturday. I might get a chance to listen to bits as I drive home from work. And then, on the day afterwards, I get to spend precious time with my family.
And for those wondering about the picture, it is about the flip flop of our Prime Minister over the proposed sell off of our nations forests. But that is not the most important story in the news right now. It is the liberation of Egypt. It will be interesting to see if democracy does happen, but there and in Tunisia. And more interesting will be the chance for democracy to spread throughout the Middle East. That could be a double edged sword, if nothing else for Israel, but if true democracy is allowed to flourish, and is not stamped on by the west, or the dictators of the Middle East, well then the world will become a better place, and the fight against terrorism will be that much stronger.
