Unexpected

Well what happened yesterday in the world of politics goes down in the history books and shows that people power really works, maybe good for the UK but maybe not so good for Ukraine. The main party in the UK who called a snap election had their elections yesterday and the people spoke using their democratic right to vote and an overwhelming result for the opposition party. Since 1977 the Conservatives had been in power but yesterday that all changed, Rishi Sunak the conservative leader lost by a majority of 174 seats and the Conservatives only getting 122 seats in government but Labour won with an overwhelming 412 seats in the British parlement, that broke all sorts of records in the history of British politics and a resounding win for the British people who it seemed were not happy with the Conservatives at least the ordinary person on the streets had they're voices heard through the ballot box, a result which proves that democracy really works and that's what Ukraine is fighting for, the rights of the people to become democratic and not live in a dictatorship. It doesn't mean much to us in Croatia as we fought a war to be democratic and won that right, I hope that one day Ukraine will also win that devastating unprovoked war started by the Kremlin idiot which has caused so many deaths and casualties on both sides during the war that has no reason to be fought, just because of the insanity of one man. Whether it will help or hinder Ukraine is yet to be seen, now it's only a few months until the Americans election, people power may come into play again as it did in the UK, what the outcome will be is anybodies guess, Democrats or Republicans, Biden or Trump, age or money, I hope that the people will make the right choice not only for America but for the whole world as both the UK and America have influence on world order and I hope that that world order doesn't change for the worst, that's enough about politics for now although it will be in the back of my mind until the result in America is known. Yesterday temperatures began as I voted for began to rise probably reaching a peak of the high thirties next week but who knows maybe the temperature records will be broken as the whole worlds climate changes and everyone around our world is feeling the effects, good for some, bad for others, who knows what the future years will bring, wheather there will be four seasons as it was in the past or will it just be one season and the only difference will be how hot it is. Maybe the hot weather in Ukraine will work for the Ukrainians as wild fires are forcing the Russians to leave their positions that they occupy, good for the war effort but bad for nature and farmers in Ukraine who rely on agriculture as a form of income to their country. Well for me it doesn't matter that much as I have to get the wood for the maybe Winter stacked away out of the elements, work until ten and then indoors until four as the doctors recommended and I for one agree as I don't like this dry heat with hardly any breeze to decrease the temperature, the elderly suffer and should listen to what the doctors say, it's better to be safe than sorry. Well that's all from me for today so if you enjoyed reading todays blog then like, follow and share. Thank you.

Luck

Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...

T+L

Well at long last it seems that there may be a break in our heatwave, last night after the temperature hitting a huge 40 degrees it started to thunder and lightning but did the heavens open for rain to fall, no only a few spots, I could probably drink more water than fell from the sky, at least it's a little cooler 19 and set to rise to a reasonable 35 degrees which is a bit more bearable. It's Sunday the end of the weekend and again it seems that my wife and I will be on our own, my youngest daughter and her fiance are going here and there to visit his family and I'm not sure if my eldest daughter will be here so it's going to be a weird Sunday but peaceful. It's going well for Ukraine from looking at all the media as Ukraine is still taking over more of russia and blowing up bridges so the idiot can't resupply his troops and he is also bombing his own country with missiles, what a shame the ordinary people who so called voted for the puppet master are having t...

Terrible

Isn't it just terrible to see once again ordinary people being targeted by bombs and mortars and being once again driven from their homes. The orders obviously coming from the top which of course means non other than the war monger himself, Putin and the Ukrainians can't do a thing to stop it except helping with the evacuation of the elderly and sick from the border towns with Russia. It is a familiar site for me after witnessing it myself here in Croatia in 1991, so I know how those people feel being driven from their homes and normal lives not knowing wheater they will return or not by a superior force intent on carrying out their orders by a lunatic dictator. Here in Croatia after so many years people are back in their homes, rebuilt and the villages, towns and cities are back to normal, Croatia has come back from the brink of destruction to become a stronger and better country, all because of the heart and will of the people. There is a huge question mark over wheater the U...
