Colston and Chips

Leave a comment

It’s difficult to be a tourist in your own city, I managed it, by visiting the MShed and seeing Colston lying down in the MShed warehouse.

Returning home from work I saw the car park with it’s twisting down lanes. It made me think of the clean air zone. It’s coming soon, was supposed to be summer, now it’s November.

The M32 motorway junction one is included. If you have a non compliant car and travel into the shopping centre or for restaurants and other entertainment you’ll have to pay £7 per day.

I remember once, I was asked on a date whilst traveling down the spirally loop in a car.

I try not to depend on cars, I find them sources of conflict. When I had one, I found the garage used to charge me too much. And I accidentally knocked a car in the car park, and that incident cost me my no claims record.

Sometimes I feel sorry for myself, back then, being young and a woman, having had these difficulties managing responsibility. Then feeling I was I fleeced by the garage and the car owner who claimed too much on his part, for a small scrape.

Trouble in Town Shine a Light on Me

Leave a comment

Trouble in town

Because they cut my brother down

Because my sister can’t wear her crown

There’s trouble, there’s trouble in town

Blood on the beat (Oh-oh)

Oh my goodness, there’s blood on the beat

Law of the jungle or the law of the street

There’s blood on, there’s blood on the beat

Lord, when I’m broken (When I’m broken)

And I’m in need (I’m in need)

Feel that ocean (Feel that ocean)

Swallowing me (Swallowing me)

Head is hanging (Head is hanging)

So sorrowfully (So sorrowfully)

Oh Lord (Ooh-ooh)

Come shine your light on me (Shine your light on me)

Communication difficulties and winning companies during hard times

Leave a comment

Two people I know, who face real, genuine difficulties, are also very difficult to communicate with. These people talk, and keep talking, without taking a break or pause to allow the other person to reply.

Being bombarded with endless verbal communication…

It’s really a challenge, and makes the listener want to get away asap.

Anyone else, know someone who has this unusual communication style?

Too much information, makes communication difficult to understand, like this pixelated map.

Cars seem so much part of society, like people feel they have no other option but to use their car.

And companies or charities, making huge windfalls in cash like oil companies, maybe they get you annoyed. Or charities which are just the right size with exactly the best policies, that keep getting too much of the money for their causes.

In my neighbourhood, the garages seem to be the best performing businesses in the area. Adding more vehicles to the area, and the later and later the revving of motors goes on into the night.

Making working adults more sleep deprived.

Charities with too much money and too many policies. I just don’t like them.

It’s really tough for grassroots businesses or start ups, and small companies to grow.

Makes me really sad, seeing how dependent we are on cars, and how these businesses are growing next to my neighbourhood where small children live and single parent households too.

I am having quite a difficult time, my job isn’t the easiest and lots of things aren’t just happening for me, and I have to deal with lots of sensory stresses everyday at home and at night.

Is anyone else feeling annoyed when businesses or charities seem to be doing so well, when other people are experiencing such hard times?
