There are people out there on the web who have strong feelings about successful parenthood and the importance, in the bonding process, of changing diapers full of liquid green poop and getting covered in foul smelling projectile vomit. The first time it happened to me I decided right there and then that there were better ways to do it, like buying Mrs B a new apron.

And now there are intelligent degree people telling me it's fine for me to breastfeed a baby. Well excuse me but I don't think so. In fact you have got to be joking. If you think I'm going to unbutton my blue, Ben Sherman, natural cotton, button-down collar shirt in public to pop nine pounds of hungry infant onto one of my miniscule, male, nipply things.. Well you've got another think coming is all I can say. I'd rather just let it holler and howl a while if it's all the same with you.

Second World War Ends

Set me straight about this Mr Rip Van Winkle or even put me out of my misery for good if I'm wrong, but aren't we in the middle of 2005 here and didn't WW2 end in 1945?

So why is the end of the Second World War only now being celebrated at Walsall Town Hall over there in UK? I know late is better than never but a sixty year delay is just plain ridiculous.

Memory Meeting

Things which people routinely forget is the subject for discussion at the next meeting of the Bogsville Family History Group. Guest speaker is Mr A.M.Nesiac. Doors open July 13 from 7 to 9pm. Think I'll forget about that one.

Air Your Concerns

Bogsville residents will be given the opportunity to air issues of concern when the town's next community forum is staged on Tuesday.

The event takes place at the Silver Slipper Ballroom down there on Hospital Street. Residents wanting to raise an issue can call Joy Hand toll-free on the usual number. Be warned. Last time I raised something with Joy it took me three days to recover enough to go home. Must have been those extra strength viagrantacids she gave me.
