Sunday is closing down here in London. Spent a couple of hours at the gym and then went for a three hour doodle on the bike around South London. Came back home and checked the news and looked at a couple of Zim blogs. Saw that some geezer in Zim is pressing to rid the country of "Filthy" white farmers..............those that are left I guess. How desperately sad. I did think, when I was younger, issues of race, gender and religion would have been sorted by the 21st Century......how wrong............how desperately sad!

So, here we go......back at college...getting all the paper work together...enrolment......and the stress begins. That's enough of that. The "Beast of Peckham" returns to make a smile and Joe has just walked in.............................................................!

Zimbabwe...what can one say...........the country, it's people, the infrastructure appears to be being wilfully destroyed. There is no natural/act of god event that has created the disaster that is taking place there. Arrived...whatever day it was..........and was offered $Z40,000.00 to the pound, the following day that had increased to $Z50,000.00 and for the next two days the rate increased by ten thousand dollars a day.............I exchanged enough money that day...the fourth...to last two weeks........so I am uncertain if the rise continued.............but hey...........whew.........how can any one living in the country deal with that sort of situation.......and the official rate.............jeeeeeeeeeeeeez, not real, not real at all. For the first time in my life I was a dollar millionaire........wow! What else happened in Zim, well......the electricity went off every day....a thing called "load shedding". It usually lasts for a few hours....the principle is that it...
