Month: July 2024

Sometimes the British Justice System works. The detestable Anjem Choudary has been jailed for life today. The extremist preacher was convicted last week of directing a terror organisation. His sentence is a minimum of 28 years and may he rot in hell for every one of the 28 years.

I guess you could call me a sucker for punishment but yesterday (29-07-2024) I made a return trip to RAF Lakenheath. Home of an American F15 and F35 fighter wing. This time I wasn’t disappointed one little bit. I sat in the viewing aera for about 4 – 5 hours and observed an steady flow…

Sadly I see in the news that people in Ethiopia are heading into another crisis and people are starving to death. I will be the first to say this is incredibly sad and even heart breaking to see and read about. But at the same time I’m going to say that it is about time…

Going through some of my photographic archives I came across this wonderful photograph of my family at my Uncle Frank’s wedding which must date to the mid 70s. While I love that so many of my extended paternal family are in this photograph, I love even more the simplicity and genuineness of it. Wedding photographs…

On Wednesday I took a very early trip out to RAF Lakenheath over in the county of Suffolk. Although it’s an RAF base it’s actually the home of a US Airforce fighter wing. That means they have F-15 Eagles and F-35 lighting fighters. No so bothered about seeing the F-35 but seeing the F-15 Eagle…

I came home last Sunday and as always I quickly checked my security cameras. I was a little surprised to discover that one of the local cats had decided to jump in through my living room window and spend an hour or so just looking around my flat and sleeping on my bed before letting…

I know you shouldn’t laugh at other peoples miss-fortune but this somehow appeals to my sense of humour. The Chinese space agency was conducting a ground test a week or so back and instead of sitting on the launchpad it took off, split up and then crashed back to earth narrowly missing a built up…

I have been going through some of my old photographic archives recently and I came across the images above. I think it’s from some adventure game or something but regardless of where it’s from it’s always been rather special to me through my transition. I’ve never found real love in this world and I know…
