Funny old world!
It is 7 months since my last blog piece. At the time Climate change discussions were all the rage after Cop26 in Glasgow. So on towards Cop27 in Sharm El-Sheikh (an extremely dry part of the world).
The Cop26 in Glasgow was a bit of a farce as most official attendees (and some unofficial) seemed to arrive in private jets. And then went on to opine about Greenhouse gases and their effect on Global temperatures.
Now, in July 2022 the country is in the middle of an inflationary surge, and in-fighting of the ruling political group to select a new leader (less than 3 years after Boris Johnson became leader). Meanwhile, industrial unrest grows as attempts to keep up with the cost of living increase tensions.
Health-wise things appear to be deteriorating with obesity levels rising, a new surge in Omicron on the cards and worries about grooming, drugs and illegal entrants coming across the Channel and being housed where possible in hotels. It never rains but it pours. This reminds me: there is the prospect of water rationing and the use of stand-pipes (1976 repeat). My own garden is a funny shade of yellow/brown.
So maybe North Kesteven and Sleaford ain't so bad after all. Hope overdevelopment doesn't spoil the party.
