And Then, Wot Could Go Wrong...

   Well, so, wot next? Co-co, climate red alert and now naughty fellows taking countries via a walk in.
   With the ‘news’ today being dominated by wot’s happening in that place wot’s variously pronounced Afghanistan or AfghanistaRn and footage of folk fighting to get on flights out, I was reminded of my lucky escape, all those years ago, from Egypt mere hours before that Arab Springy thingy kicked-off.
   Looks like ol’ Joe’s Biden his time regards a public statement, however, it would seem, via comments here and there and unverified by myself, that our own Mr Bojangles or Carrie, his carer in the community, has stated that any Alfgoonies fleeing the Tali-Tubbys will be ‘welcome’ here; passport or papers not necessary. Say wot now? Not even proof of puncture for which there’s an app? just like going for a week in Spain then. Oh, not quite. And all to be housed where exactly?     
   Anyhoo, I do hope our security services are up to the job as, and this is just a wild guess on my part, it’s quite possible some of those fellows running away and welcomed here won’t be coming here with the idea of becoming our newest bestest ever friends. Add ‘em all to the estimated forty seven thousand already on security watch lists?  I feel there may be trouble ahead. I may be wrong as I’m not often right, but...
   All-in-all, it would seem the grand plan is progressing; Covid, Climate Code Red, now conflict.
C how it’s shaping up?
