harvest moon (a kind of heartwarming visit to minor injuries)

 harvest moon

to the east my brothers to the east

good for friday, saturday, sunday

now seeing it just depends on the cloud cover. 

saturday looks plausible.

we roll towards the end of the month (and the beginning of OMtober - an honourary ember). 

why is the suppressed climate national security report not significant?

'the report was supposed to be published in full last october, before the cop30 climate summit in held in belém... but downing street officials intervened at the last moment to prevent its publication.'

it is interesting that the government have finally got around to investigating the effects of climate change but this will not alter the effects of climate change nor government policy (nor that unicorn public opinion). other factors - employment, prosperity, the cost of living crisis will be held to be more important. 

it may be that the government does not want to scare the horses but, also, nor does it want to be accused of a project fear. 

it matters little. the changes are on their way. 

more fucking shit with the local GP practice

so they left a message saying the appointment was cancelled on the answerphone?

it would seem not.

and (now) horsemouth and his mum are off into town for A&E on a friday night. 

well tbh minor injuries on a friday afternoon and it wasn't so bad, in fact it was kind of heartwarming. mum got into at least two good chats with people. all the staff were wonderful. the only fly in the ointment was horsemouth getting impatient at the end and making his mum walk all the way to main reception to try and phone for a cab (which turned out to have closed when they got there). he loaded his mum into a wheelchair and took her back to A&E and found a freephone for the cabs (thank you assistance man - he'll know that in future). 

his mum has stubbed her toes but seemingly no fractures or broken bones in the metatarsals etc. (so that's a relief). 

now he is back home. phew corblimmey. 

he's up. it's the morning. something he has written has proved controversial. so he has pulled it while he has a think about the best way forward. 

'empires crumble, my friend, republics founder and fools survive'

'bravo m. segalot, ca c'est du meuble.'
