Some people are so shallow


With no baby duties today (Sunday) found me, once again, in the small dark church where I spent Easter. Can't remember a word of the sermon, but the the Motet (Handle) was very moving and the Voluntary, J S Bach's Toccata and Fuge in D, absolutely divine.(click on the link and have a listen)

Who me, Shallow?

THE MELDREW FACTOR


Victor Meldrew
I think there's a bit of the Meldrew in all of us, well in me anyway. It's probably why I identify so easily with his character in the TV series One Foot in the Grave.

For those of you who need me to 'draw you a picture' us Meldrews' are frustrated and discontented with society. We're between 40 and 60,we're fed-up with politics, and the government in general. We aren't very positive about the future, and have particular worries about public services. Another fear is our financial future, as pensions funds seem to be dwindling. We're sick of all the talk about global warming, we're tired of reality television and we're fed up with watching sanitized news broadcasts.

Oh, you too? Well welcome to the club!
