Techrights plans and more

oday’s bright start, with 20 degrees expected on Monday (yes, in October), is nothing to complain about. Today, for a change, the sick bird isn’t sleeping here overnight; we’d like to think of that as a sign of this bird getting better. She had loads of food yesterday as I fed her close to 20 times.
Tomorrow it’ll be one week before football resumes. This very long recess feels rather strange.
In other news, it seems increasingly probable that next year we’ll touch base with the Court of Appeal. There’s some other good news, but it’s premature to talk about it in public.
We’re starting to plan how to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Techrights. Not all of us are in the UK, so it’s tricky.

Just because they’re paid more doesn’t mean they deserve more trust
HE High Court in the UK has been lied to quite a lot by a so-called ‘law’ ‘firm’ (lie firm) that bullies myself and loved ones. It continues to lie to the High Court, it has lied to many judges there already, and perhaps it tries to bait me into talking back by saying something about very obviously false statements.
Courts don’t like liars. Courts are also smart enough to see when law firms lie to them.
The SRA belatedly realises this is a crisis to the reputation of the occupation.

It’s coming!
oday we did a lot of housework and then caught up with news. On Tuesday next week we celebrate another personal anniversary and maybe we’ll have another chance to travel around Greater Manchester before it gets too cold.
Football is back in 9 days, but it’ll be in Anfield with heckling local fans who accuse ManCity of cheating.
The more rosy news, for us at least, comes in November. Techrights turns 20.

Better ill than dead

he movie “Animal Graveyard” or something similar (not “Animal Hospital”) gave me the creeps as a young kid; I’m not sure if I even watched it, I at least heard of it. “Elephants’ graveyard” also; anything to do with death…
Recently we’ve attracted some ill or weak birds, who use our yard like a sanctuary and even stay overnight. It’s a bit painful to see them in poor health; but we need to do our best to help them because they ask for it.

Things have progressed:

Will they create a new shell to whitewash their actions?

All good so far

IVE months ago we set up the shells’ tank to split them apart from all the fish. All the shells seem healthy (to date I only saw one or two dead shells, that’s less than 1% of the whole) and they seem increasingly active too. If their population keeps growing, however, oxygen capacity will decrease. Then a bigger tank might become necessary.
The shells or snails seem to be of Malaysia origin (no predators in the tank though). They came with our loaches. They reproduce very fast.

Good cause
This week I spoke to Daniel Pocock and his latest blog posts show that:
- He has made Farage nervous
- He costs Farage a lot of money
- He has uncovered additional scandals
- The mainstream media intentionally ignores (1-3)
He’s not done yet. Things will be getting hotter.
