Archbishop Rowan Williams causes public outcry and a plea to stop blocking the A34(T) especially in the evenings when I'm using it. Bridge Killers let off.

No-one would have believed in the last years of the 20th century, that human affiars were being watched from the timeless world of space. With minds vastly superior to ours they watched us with incredulous eyes as we swarmed, multiplied and killed each other, like micro-organisms in a drop of water...

Please God, Give Me The Wisdom To Engage Brain Before Putting Mouth In Gear

  The Archbishop of Canterbury has really put his foot in the proverbial mouth this week because by the reaction from both Christian and Moslem faiths it looks like he might just choke himself.  As top man of the Anglican church he might find that the ultimate upholder of the faith, Her Majesty the Queen may be enquiring if the Tower is available for a short period - possibly shorter than he could ever of imagined.

If he has been supping the communal vino a little too much we could forgive him for this demeanor but he hasn't.  In fact he appeared to be quite sane and alcohol free at the time he mentioned in passing that We, the British people will inevitably have to accept some parts of Sharia Law.

Why should we do that?  This is a Christian country that tolerates other faiths and welcomes immigration to a degree regardless of colour and faith.  It's worked quite well most of the time.  However visitors and immigrants must be prepared, to acknowledge and accept our laws, even though it may infringe on their beliefs to a degree.  Quote "When in Rome Do as the Romans". 

If the archbishop survives this gaff I would be surprised - He may be getting a call from the palace shortly if he doesn't resign voluntarily, where resides the only person who can remove him from his postion.

I think it may be time to resurrect the long disbanded Knights Templar, defenders of the faith wielding a sword.

Every Bloody Friday A34(T)

  I dread going to work on most nights but Fridays' is tops in the "wish I'd gone sick" league.  The reason you may ask?  Because for some strange reason the A34 (T) in Oxfordshire, to be exact the section between Abington and the M40 gets closed of blocked every Friday evening by "extension of my penis", egomaniacs, posers and what-have-you drivers who get a kick out of colliding with the central reservation barrier or the car in front because somewhere in his or her tiny brain there is no recognition of the fact that driving 2 meters form the motor in front constitutes stupidity and danger all rolled into one.

These lifeforms one level up from amphibians, who think that if they close up to the car in front, he might just speed up a little bit more, therefore ensuring that he gets to his/her destination a micro-second earlier than last time.  I can never fathom how these lifeforms can drive into a barrier running parallel with their direction of travel.  Unbelievable! 

Why am I very angry?  Well, because this trunk road is the only viable link from the central south coast and the Midlands.  I have to travel to Rugby every night so that in the morning you wake up to the sound of the doorbell.  This is the pallet or parcel you ordered only yesterday afternoon and now like magic it's delivered to your door the very following day by a nice little man in a van.

So now you can appreciate that if there is one thing that makes life more difficult than it already is, is when I have to sit stationary or crawl the next 5 miles because some prat decides to do a 360 degree spin taking out an innocent little old lady's Fiesta as collateral damage before plunging it nose first into the barrier.  Thank You you moron.

I don't care whether you earn mega bucks or not.  I am not particulary interested whether you drive an Audi, BMW (as common as Cortinas used to be), a Subaru or the most popular barrier bender, the Golf.  All I ask is that every Friday especially, could you please keep your distance, stay out of the hedgerows and avoid the barriers.  Or if not, a least wait till I have passed through before closing the road down.  Not a problem at all for me on the return journey, about 4.30am, because by then the scrap has been recovered, the glass brushed up, the shredded plastic bumper was finally recovered from house number 136's garden pond and the cones have all gone.  No-one would ever know there had been a fender bender or even sadly a fatality.

Young Thugs Kill Truck Driver

Dean Ingram - Threw Block

Just for fun they lobbed a second breeze block over the bridge as an oncoming lorry was approaching.  The driver, Mr.McCourt 68 was killed instantly as the block smashed through the windscreen and hit him in the chest.  Later that morning Dean was chatting up some girls and laughed at the results of his crime.  Defence barristers said that they may not have realised the outcome of their actions.  The judge said, "You are old enough to understand the difference between right and wrong"

At fifteen years of age these lads would know the results of objects hitting vehicles already travelling at some speed.  So, no excuse there then.  Then I ask, what the hell were these two 15 year olds doing out at 3.30am in the morning?  Obviously left to run wild by their parents or guardians.  So, who do we blame now then?  The parents? Well apparently he is the product of a broken home but that's no excuse at all.  My parents decided to split when I was young but that didn't turn me into a thug.

Since the early seventies any kids with problems were now being classified by the sandle and woolly bag brigade into specific groups.  Special needs,  reaction to blackcurrant juice, something or other syndromes and any other scientific jargon to explain why to any one with an ounce of common sense knows that they are just little shits and should be treated as so.

  It seems to me that for every wrong doing by these youngsters there is a viable excuse to counteract the reason why they did it.  If there isn't an excuse or syndrome to cover it then we will invent one.  On that basis if George W Bush had a bad day and an intense migraine we could admonish him for letting the Navy 's aircraft carriers in the Gulf flatten Iran?  No?  Thought not.

So, back to these yobbos. They kill a decent guy who had retired but kept working for something to occupy his time.  They get the charges reduced to manslaughter and will  be out after serving two thirds of their time maybe less if the government need some more space. So a couple fo years for taking the life of another human being.  Life's cheap isn't it?  Rob some security depot of £53 million and expect to rot in jail for 25 or more.

My appeal to other truck drivers?  Remember these faces, impress their smug mugs into your brain.  Because on one dark night you may run into them again.  Literally!  Hopefully!
