PHONE HACKING SCANDAL OVER MILLY DOWLER

I never thought I would agree with John Prescott but the view he expressed yesterday about  Rupert Murdoch controlling  BSkyB being a matter of grave public concern is right.
The alleged phone hacking and interference by one of Murdoch's employees into the phone of a missing 13 year old girl thus meddling with a police search  was beyond merely shocking.Her parents were given false hope of her being alive while in reality this child lay dead, brutally murdered.
Stop the negotiations with Murdoch immediately before this meglomaniac controls all our news.

Vince Cable was correct when he expressed similar concerns a few weeks ago.

Family Tree Magazine Article

My article about Great Uncle Fred Cockerill and his show girl wife Queenie Leighton has just been published. Very pleased with the way it looks. Queenie was quite famous in her day as a principal boy in many pantomimes.

Backyard Tomatoes

My back garden is tiny but three tomato plants have a warm sunny position by a south facing wall.
Growing these gets really exciting from now on as the yellow flower buds change into green pea sized fruits and swell into green and then red tomatoes to eat.
These plants must be fed and watered .They are of course the most expensive tomatoes you will ever eat by the time you have bought compost, plants,Tomorite and stakes.

But there is nothing like the taste and smell of a tomato still warm from the sun.
It takes me back to my post war child hood. Food was still rationed.
My Dad kept chickens at the bottom of the garden, he swapped eggs with Mr Benton next door for tomatoes from his green house.

It seems amazing now that all food was seasonal. No tomatoes or strawberries until the summer. No cheap imports and no supermarkets.

Ryan Giggs and Celebrity Behaviour

Hardly a day passes without the revelation of shallow deceitful behaviour from  so called celebrities. These cheaters know what they are doing is wrong otherwise they would not employ expensive lawyers to cover up their conduct from the public under the guise of protecting their privacy.

Wives, brothers, friends,colleagues, and especially sons and daughters have all been betrayed,so have the young fans who idolise them.

The selfish marriage wrecking tarts who only want a chunk of the grossly overpaid wages  their morally weak targets get are no better.

Whatever happened to loyalty?
What happened to personal reponsibility?


Sponsors please have the moral courage to cancel your endorsement of these crass individuals.
Do not buy their books.Boo them from the terraces.They are cheating you too.
