OK....I came back to the UK and got wheeled off the plane

August 11th 2008


OK....I came back to the UK and got wheeled off the plane...A first I must say! Felt a bit like Elizabeth Taylor! Got an MRI scan this morning, and am now sitting up in bed with my left foot like a dead fish....freezing and numb. I’m going to  have to get myself a crutch and a parrot, so I can fob myself off as a pirate and scare the neighbourhood preschoolers! Just kidding folks!
Some of my plans and schemes have had to be put on hold, because there’s not much I can do if I can’t walk properly!!! Hey Ho!
I’ve been reading the front pages, with images of civilians in Georgia, who’ve just been blasted and bombed out of their houses. The sight of a little grey haired old lady lying on the ground screaming in anguish..blood spattered bodies.. Mothers with babies standing in front of their ruined homes. The revolting abomination of war. It makes me so angry to see innocent people being subjected to this violence time and time again. “War” is legalised murder. It should be criminalised. Those who perpetrate it should be held personally accountable for every single drop of blood spilled, every limb smashed, and every life decimated. What on earth in wrong with these psychotic morons who give orders to violate people in this way??? All these “leaders of men”.....murderers...every one of them. I’m sickened.
