Total insanity

What the hell happened over the last couple of days, has the world completely gone off its rocker. After surfing the web last night I was utterly shocked by what I read and listened to, firstly America, the stock market has fallen because of fears of a new recession I don't understand why everyone thinks that there's going to be a recession because I'm not a financial analyst so I can't explain what's happening only that on the web it says that there is going to be one so that's why the market tumbled. There were also two items that I saw about Trumps rally in Atlanta, what a lot of stupid things he said and the main one was that he didn't thank Biden for the prisoner exchange he thanked Putin, what an absolutely foolish thing to say, is Trump losing it or just pretending to be an idiot, it was disgusting what he said about his opponent and Biden as well as other politicians, I honestly can't see him winning the upcoming election if he carries on this way, Putin won't be too happy I'm sure. Then there's Great Britain, all those riots in a lot of cities over the width and breadth of the UK, it seems that racism has reached boiling point with attacks on hotels where migrants are staying, mosques which are places of worship and worst of all attacks on the police who are only doing their job but we're unable to get the situation under control, it would have been better to bring in the army, if the pretesters want a race war then let the army give them one. The shame of it for every normal citizen of the UK to see that on the web, tv and in every other sort of media outlet when the world should be enjoying the Olympics all they see is politics and riots, I am totally bemused as what has happened over the past few days. That's all for today as I have a headache just thinking about it, I'll give you an update from my respective about the war in Ukraine tomorrow. By the way my wife returned home safely last night so in my life something nice happened which makes me a lot happier. If you enjoyed todays blog then like, follow and share. Thank you.

Ninth installment

The remains of the unit that were in this position left and we followed them, we went around the outskirts of the village and back into the center. The rest of PIV or what was left of it were already there, we found out that Colin just after he had reached the main hq in the center of the village. We had to go back to the end of the street to see what was happening but as soon as we arrived we came under heavy fire as the enemy had pinpointed this house as our new front line, there was no way that we could reach Eric without getting everyone who attempted a rescue killed and because of the amount of enemy fire we had to fall back, on the way Alan started going berserk saying that he had to go back to fight, he was shooting everywhere so George calmed him down and asked him to take care of the elderly and that seemed to work. By now the village command had decided it was time to leave but first we had to wait for the mortar unit to reach safety. We could not get anywhere near under cons...

Third installment

Day in, day out, it was the same routine, sleep, guard, fire off a few rounds in the general direction of the enemy, there was not much else to do, the main thing was to stay alive by keeping inside every time mortars or artillery came flying in to the village. The only time that there was a lot of activitie was when we were buzzed by planes, everybody would rush outside, Ernie would jump on the transporter and fire the machine gun, I used to run to the machine gun that was mounted on a tripod at the end of the street and also fire at the plane, everybody else would be outside firing their ak47s, there was not much chance of hitting it or bringing it down but it took only one lucky shot and that would give everyone hope. After the plane had gone out of sight that the transporter was Ernies because he had shot at the enemy leaving the damaged transporter with a sniper rifle, so Geordi the commander in charge of the defense of Osijek had given it to Ernie, I also found out that he worked...

Second installment

The word money has a way of working it's way into every aspect of life and my little crusade was not exempt, how much did I need to get to Croatia, how much did I need to survive on the way, it all had to be taken into account and most where and how I was going to get the money from that I needed. By inquiring at travel agents I found out that I could fly but only as far as Austria, Italy or Hungary but the price was much too expensive for me. Taking the train to any of these countries was also far too expensive, the cheapest way was by bus but the only problem was that it took so long to reach your destination. The bus that I wanted to take went from London and it's destination was Athens in Greece, it normally went through Yugoslavia but because of the war it was not going through Budapest then down into Belgrade before going onto Greece. This was the cheapest way to go and after further inquiries I found out the times and price of the bus, now all I had to do was get the mon...
