It’s one of those mornings to cherish and enjoy.

Socialist Worker isn’t very Socialist. At least at my reading age. It seems to mock, in terms of concepts.My school friend insisted we attend one of their demonstrations, back in mid 1970s.it would have started a riot. But, like all bored schoolboys, I bought a magazine and chucked it in the bin. I walked off. I’m avoiding politics. Let them infiltrate some other organisation.. My home town had WW2 prison camp. Some must’ve hung around?

Socialist Worker, though nationalistic is not socialistic well, it strikes me as right wing in some ways. . Though, not British national, or socialistic. At least from my assessment.. I don’t think it likes Britain. From the trenches at Mons, to the capture of Pegasus Bridge. Britain has expressed it’s voice. We’ve earned lots of enemies. Maybe, more than we know.?

I was a former,non-NHS ambulance crew. If studied Chemistry, post A level I’d been in ACF.

I wasn’t perfect. But, seemed to match desired reservist skills of the time. I fell short of a full 3 year engagement by a few weeks. I’d completed all required training for those years. I left through bad timing, and pressure mounted in middle of day job.

“Money burns a hole in the pocket!” I remember that, from 1/2 century ago. Remember, cigarettes can shorten life, quality & quantity? As someone who smoked around 100 each day, 20 years ago, The people who started me smoking are not winning a popularity contest with me, The lives it puts at risk, the pain, the feeling of being broken. I wasn’t a smoker, ore-University, I had a couple of stops & starts after university. Within, about 5 month of leaving university, my weight had doubled, and I craved cigarettes more than life. Well, it was only a bit of fun?????

Not to mention, I had an offer of a place on an Engineers conversion degree course. So, not even being able to maintain a functioning lifestyle. I missed out more than one degree course (any of them, I’d have attempted. Probably, to a reasonable standard. I didn’t want to claim dole. I was aiming at jobs that didn’t need degrees. But, it was how careers advice was in those days, usually defer work type of thing.

I knew I had to work, that I didn’t have peace enough to organise accomodation, that university was a “one time only” offering. Also, long periods without food, soap, sleep and so on’ it left me in need of time to recover. I know, people disliked me. If they’d have said why, it might’ve allowed the English Legal System a chance to pursue matters very quickly. Remember, don’t discard the wheat with the chaff?
