Surviving Society???

I am, at the moment walking a back route between Bury and Radcliffe.(Greater Manchester, England),(for my foreign friends.)

This is along a canal route, full of plants, trees and wildlife alike an it's just after midday. A smashing route!
 
However, a gentleman in his fifty's has just saw me approach and deliberately stepped over to the other side of the path, that was when we were around 30 paces away. As we got closer, I tried to make eye contact in acknowledgement and maybe say hello,(as anyone would). This man was cowering when we walked past each other. I have my work uniform on with a baseball cap as a part of it.
 
Now, my walk has been slightly spoilt by this, as I am now writing instead of taking in nature to it's fullest.
 
I am deeply sorry about this man's behaviour and/or past.
 
If you cannot have a leisurely walk along a nice stretch of local countryside without fearing for your life, what else can there possibly be?
 
This country, like many others is still in the Dark Ages, it's about time these money/time wasting council bosses and politicians actually pulled their fingers out of their arses and actually..

MADE A DIFFERENCE!!!

13' Lucky for some?

This post might actually be about survival!

This week it is the 13th September 2013 on Friday. 

Things keep appearing to relate to '13', for instance:
• I watched a documentary about kids filmed just before they turned 13.
• I looked at the clock yesterday and it read 13:31, the same backwards in a palindrome kind of fashion. 
• My hotel room number this week is 13.

I'm not that superstitious but this has got me a bit scared, should I do the Lottery?, dig an air raid shelter?, drive the family up into the mountains?, or even just simply stay in bed all day on Friday the 13th?!

The one and only saving grace is that my Wife's lucky number is 13, the day in which she entered this lovely planet of ours :), oh, just to add, my favourite metal band's 13th album is called THIRTEEN...

A Young Lemmy?

Check out this three year old!..

Yes, it's Rowan at the park. This is Rowan who head bangs to Ozzy in the car among lots of other rock bands. I can't help but think that my missus may have had little fun with Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead. In 15 years time if he isn't riding a huge trike and in a rock band himself, then he might not be Lemmy's after all. :)

God I love this kid x
