A MAGNET TO THESE THINGS


In my previous parts I had talked about the health problems that could arise regarding an increase in the cosmic rays and UV rays as the magnetosphere decreases in intensity.

Now I do not recall if I posted it or not, short term memory issues, but I had also wondered if this could have effect on other things including a few I am suffering from as it is electrical in nature.

There are theories and possible evidence that our electrical grids could be affected .. so this suggested it was a possibility thought I did not see nor understand how it was linked. One of the few things left I need to research.

Now for several days because of the changing magnetic field and the global cooling now staring at us I had a tab open to do with the Sun's activity, solar cycles and specifically the number of days without Sunspots. As it turned out .. there was something further down the page I had failed to notice and when I did ..

It blew my mind!

Now what I have talked about was that I also suffer from temperatures and humidity, though annoyingly idiots insist in stating 'well everyone suffers from that' including Doctors .. to which I reply ..

'What at anywhere between 15 to 22 Degrees?!'

Even Doctors do not refrain from assuming and getting it wrong and I am in a world of people that think they are the most intelligent people in the planet.

The other issues I have had involve my heart and I have been in out out of hospitals and these are Tachycardia and Arrhythmia and obviously the heart is electrical but never considered any link previously. Until they talked about electrical grids. People with pacemakers I did think about .. just not normal hearts. I also have very high blood pressure and not sure if that is being caused by all this too.

Had no heart issues before about 4 years ago. Started off one or two incidents a year .. and then a dozen incidents a year. Before long it was one or two a month and then one or two each week and then it was daily. The NHS ignored it .. I scratched my head as to why it was occurring and they the NHS were ignoring it. I have four or more visits to North Middlesex Hospital and three to St Catherine's Hospital before my health and lack of help caused me to miss an appointment over four years and I wrongly returned to London.

But according to the NHS this is my fault.

Yeah something tells me that within a year or two at the most the NHS are going to be roasted by the entire country and their incompetence and disregard for human life over money exposed. Call it a hunch.

"Furthermore, there are studies (#1, #2, #3, #4) linking cosmic rays with cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in the general population. Our latest measurements show that cosmic rays are intensifying, with an increase of more than 18% since 2015" - http://spaceweather.com

We have developed a new predictive model of aviation radiation. It's called E-RAD--short for Empirical RADiation model. We are constantly flying radiation sensors onboard airplanes over the US and and around the world, so far collecting more than 22,000 gps-tagged radiation measurements. Using this unique dataset, we can predict the dosage on any flight over the USA with an error no worse than 15%” - http://spaceweather.com

Oh dear. You see what the issue is here?

Concerned enough about a link to health to both passengers of aircraft to those down at sea-level that they would fit sensors to aircraft there would be strict criteria in place for. Have to be certain that any new equipment does not interfere with the electrical systems of the aircraft or radio signals. Not something you can do over night. It also would not be cheap to implement either.


Oddly the difference is I wondered about the magnetic field while they talk about cosmic rays .. which would be more to do with mutations, good and bad, I would have thought?


With a little digging you can find that they claim they claim many human advancements, like language for instance, occurred after the Sun we awoke after a sleep .. when the shields were down and the new cosmic rays were able to reach ground level, ergo 'us', for a period of time before the fields went back up.


Or you think if this occurs before long we might figure out how to travel faster than the speed of light and get quantum mechanics to work for us?


Maybe we might realise that lying is not the way to do things? Perhaps become more civilised as a society?


One can only hope.


Instead today your accused of being uncivilised by pointing out that others are uncivilised!


Yup the world truly has gone mad both close to home and further afield and personally .. I truly tire of it and have done for a very long time.


I constantly fear leaving my daughter, with health issues, and grandchildren, also with health issues, on their own .. or being heart broken if anything should happen do me. Which both my daughter and I think the authorities are trying to bring about via their lying and lack of support.


I have the option presently to get out of the hell hole I am in .. which is oppressive and sets off my heart.


Yesterday two without any education asked about Ealing Studios and one said they still make films and I shook my head. I stated that one of the famous films, think it was the Lady Killers with Alec Guinness, Peter Sellers and Herbert Lom, was the last one they made there and got told I was wrong.


Now one did some research, did not look in the right place .. see a list of things filmed there and used this to tell me I was wrong. Now I stated that Ealing Studios was a company and that it could be that others too it over. I was still told no because the filming continued throughout and I ignored them. They just love, as others have tried and failed to do, to tell me I am wrong about things.



  • Do Ealing Studios still make films?
Well no ..

The building was taken over by the BBC in 1955 and from then on in they used it for series and not films .. which is what I stated might have happened. It was then taken over again by a consortium called Fragile in 2000 where it was used for some films, Bridget Jones being one.

Where did I found this information? On a site about the location on their about us page. Because the building is famous. But its NOT the company Ealing Studios .. they just keep the name because it was a famous name.

The fact remains that they stopped making films there when I aid that they did.

I really cannot be bothered to tell them they are wrong and I wont bring it up unless they are disagreeing about something else and use it to prove I have been wrong before and I will point out that that I was not.

I said that it must have been taken over and they said no .. when the fact is it was taken over twice and they did not film 'films' there until after 2000 after a break of over 45 years.

Now I had thought that as one of them was from the Ealing area and I was born near there too that they would know as I thought it was common knowledge that Ealing Studios stopped making films in the fifties. Apparently not.

This was followed 12 hours later when I tried to explain the link in the last 5 years between pole shifts and magnetosphere to by tachycardia and arrhythmia. This to someone that loves to interrupt, switch subjects to something totally irrelevant so they can make it about themselves and then talk for four hours straight.

How did they do it? By telling me for the thousandth time they had tachycardia back in the 1970's and when I pointed out it was not relevant, not forgetting they had interrupted me, they pull a face and roll their eyes.

What they tell themselves in their heads and to other people .. this is someone that likes to control 90% of the conversation and complains no one allows her to talk. Which is always about them and their hard life. Which is not.

As a result no less than 5 members of her family want to talk to her .. and nor do any of their spouses either but it is everyone else who is at fault.

So I have been trapped here without support from any direction ad have most all my belongings bar a few things I am desperately hanging on to. My cameras.

Have he option to go to Wales .. which I very much want to do but this is again not without its issues and obstacles. Need to find a way.

If I can I can do far more photography then I have done in the last two years and do far more with getting the message out there.

As well s the usual problems and the health I have someone that is so petty, hated by his own three children who never speak to him, who thinks its funny to unplug an extension to the Internet each night and then clogs up the main router's WIFI by watching videos on guns on YouTube every night. And I do mean every night. Asked by the Internet plays up and this being one of my areas of expertise I have to point it out. But I am not believed.

In the last 18 months they have gone away four times for 8 days each time.

Now the fact that the Internet has worked flawlessly for each of those 8 days and 24 hours a day it does not register to the two arguing about Ealing Studios that as soon as this prick is on his own and his partner goes to bed .. the transmitter up here stops connecting to the Internet and the other slows down. Without fail. Works without fail when he is away.

Of course this occurs in the busiest period for social media and I also try to upload videos, photos and of course blog posts. They fail to appreciate how time consuming this is, how frustrating this is and how it slows me down.

What beckons is an area where I get none of this, nor the oppression, the ear bending, the stress and with a large number of mountains, beautiful countryside, wildlife, beaches, estuaries, villages, castles, stone walls and heaven knows what else.

I would say that I have probably been operating at 20% of my capabilities for the last two years and would dearly love to get that up to 80% of them.

Were it not for all the issues and being targeted on almost all platforms .. except one where I am not so sure my other .. talents will be appreciated. I also suspect that I am not growing on it because I am not .. severe enough?

Maybe I will I am not sure?

Another platform I am on is also growing and nearly at a 1,000 followers and I just keep thinking that before very long I will have the followers where things will start to fall in place ..

So that if I do find a way to relocate .. I will be a lot more relaxed if I know that it wont be long before things take off.

That is my issue .. getting there somehow and finding a way where I can both work and know that I have no issues to stress me out and therefore start my heart off.

It is a lack of confidence issues then is closely tied into a health issue and leftists are useless because they think they can cure everything with talk. No .. you can not and I have demonstrated this repeatedly. I have two very loud autistic children to contend with too. So need my own space I can retreat to if and when I need to.

Other than that all I can think about is the mountains in Wales and all the scenery and wildlife though as I told my daughter .. knowing my luck I will get their with my camera, still missing to important lenses, ad it will rain constantly for 12 months?!

EDIT: As well as being an evil corporation and enslaving people to unpaid labour .. Blogger is also a crap service and I have spent an hour trying to correct it as it has changed fonts, font sizes, font colours and font backgrounds on me and refuses POINT BLANK .. to change them.

OBSTACLES & HINDRANCES


Wondered whether I was running into the age-old problems on Twitter as I had wondered about this blog? Admittedly I had not republished any of my evidence in a number of years so I did that recently with the blog titles 'Country of the Damned' and 'The Files of Truth'.

The issues are that there is just so much that two things are possible as a reaction .. the first is that it is all so fantastical that people doubt the story. The other problem is due to the severity and clandestine nature of some of it it may well be fear?

I do what I do to make a difference and do not see much point in picking fights with brain-dead socialists, the far left ones at any rate, to just whinge. That is NOT what I want to achieve.

Primarily I want my daughter to get help and obviously myself because I am not much use to her right now and I feel helpless and guilty over that!

But I also want to help others .. as many as I can so I find it a little bizarre that out of 1,700 followers all doing their nut about the same thing that the very revealing 'Country of the Damned' post pinned to my daughter's stream now as well as my own .. has only been retweeted on Twitter 63 times.

Frustrating is that even though it has only been retweeted 63 times .. in just 7 weeks the post has been viewed over 1,600 times. The frustrating part is, as I explained the numbers to my daughter, imagine it had been retweeted by just half of our followers? Tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands seeing just some of the truth?!

I have done everything I am able to do over a decade and it has cost me beyond belief, almost my sanity countless times and added to this probably around £30,000 to £40,000 .. my home, my car and even my business plans!

Received help in that time? Next to ZERO!

I would like to return north and get out of the hell hole I am in .. except it is not easy for the following reasons and why we need help ..

  • Getting about
  • Knees, feet, heart, energy, thighs
  • Supposed to cycle as this helps the condition
    • Cannot do this currently and ..
    • Nowhere to keep a bike in Birkenhead
    • Children will hurt themselves or damage the bike

  • Anxiety

    • House just not suitable
  • Locks placed on all doors .. got broken off
  • Food wasted on a daily basis


  • Lives in Birkenhead which makes me .. uncomfortable
  • Confusing to get around ..
    • Very complicated in some places, straightforward in others

    • Partner was an idiot and crazy 'AM'

  • Currently no income whatsoever
    • Not even benefits
    • No GP
    • No Dentist

That is the level of help in the UK if your white and disabled and this fact is totally ignored and even denied by help and advice agencies that I now know are run by socialists.

As are the local councils.

Want to save money?Yeah take everything away from white people on all levels .. no comeback for that. Better still let us grab the by the scruff of the neck and bury their noses in the shit while we do all this to them.

Funny they harp on about racism when it is performed on a daily basis and has done every single day for at least a decade. I am living proof of this as is y daughter!

Not a gambling man. Need the right place, assurances and money coming in to be able to fight my health issues and achieve what I want to do .. to be of help to my daughter and grandchildren.

Yet I am constantly being hammered in the face on TV and online about how fuckking privileged we are because we are white.

Yes this is what white privilege does to you from time to time ..

GETTING RAILROADED


I am in a bad way right now.

I have had all my remaining benefits stopped and therefore getting nothing and this has set off many symptoms. I am emailing yet again to try and get help but I do not hold out much hope.

So I get anxiety which sets off phobias which both drop my already low magnesium levels and set off heart palpitations and that makes me even more fearful because I know if I try to get anywhere I am most definitely going to have a horrific time!

Not to mention just being fed up with this, wanting it to end and taking the ultimate solution over all this. Except my daughter has serious issues, being treated abysmally by the UK authorities and I would not want to be responsible for breaking her heart.

But she also has cancer and we do not know what is going to happen there either, yup .. treated like shit, threatened with court action over nothing, threatening to take her children away and threatening her with homelessness .. while she has cancer. Did not want to cover that in the stories ..

Now as yourself why? Two magazine articles .. one about sexual abuse as a child, one about domestic abuse recently .. missing being held by a grooming gang and that the social services et her down for 12 years and are now threatening to take children away from her and make her homeless while she has four serious health conditions, one of them cancer.

By now .. or long before now in some cases I should be making my own money, via advertising but as I have mentioned previously this mysteriously froze around December 2016. It is now July 2018 and .. well some will already be aware that this cannot freeze on its own.

I have figured in recent months that this is because I tell the truth, speak my mind and predict what I think is coming down the road?

Also we was promised help from both a media agents and a magazine but after five months we sit here wondering when all this is even going to be talked about ever again? We are beginning to think it is not. Why it went from all this talk and promises to nothing at all other then the two published stories out of two dozen we do not know.

Google moved the goalposts on making money on YouTube and one photography guy and camera reviewer lost $2,000 per month. So no, not even political content. Mundane Matt and many others have talked about this. All state that even with their popularity you do not get to talk to Google or YouTube so what chance do I have? So I have not been so keen on getting video, especially in 4K, to upload to my YouTube channel.

This is pure evil and should even be illegal .. you go to your users and tell them that if they spend several years working their arses off that they can make money. Then after doing this and being committed for several years you go and repeatedly move the goalposts?!

Slave labour with a twist is what it is.

Huh, and they claim they are a company that lean to the left? Fuck .. off!

Also and as agreed by the DWP and Job Centre I am still trying to take photographs of professional quality to build up several thousand in which to sell.

Yeah I got stabbed in the back over that and had the rug pulled put from under me at the thirteenth hour, no not the eleventh.

I would have more photos had the DWP not cancelled all my benefits in 2016 .. only realised the other day there are only like a dozen photos, if that, on my Flickr account for the whole of 2016 was because of them. I had previously been scratching my head. Yeah .. that is how bad my memory problems can be.

So there are a few hundred photos missing, though these would have all been jpegs, fro 2016.

Then there is 2017 when they pulled the rug, cancelled all my benefits .. again and then did not help my daughter when I moved 250 miles to help her.

Not only did I lose thousands of pounds of my inheritance helping her and y grandchildren when no one else did but I was also missing at least a 1,000 photos.

Go through the dates on my Flickr account and you can see that I have taken pictures this year but there are periods of many weeks when I have not taken any.

Hell I even managed to get a few photos up recently that I had taken back in April!

Health issues.

I was supposed to be out taking photos yesterday, that was the plan after initially planning to do this Sunday.

But Monday I had no benefits come through and I just had this feeling and spent the day panicking as I have so much shit needing to be sorted out and am not able to do it and have not had one ounce of the help I was promised from so-called friends.

So I just want to curl up and die which I probably will because I have no money at all and am in a room way smaller than the legal limit to be classed as a bedroom and in a house of people that drive me absolutely nuts so stay in this tiny room all the time.

I had previously lost a lot of weight but did start eating again recently, due to the magnesium problem and the pains I get from that, plus trying to get photographs. Though I have been severely limited in my range for these photographs and only on a bike and not on foot or on a bus at all.

So now I have no idea if or when I am ever going to be in a good enough state to start the photography up again?

So you can imagine I am angry with a lot of people and I have spent six years blogging and knowing we are getting screwed, knowing that even the mainstream media are lying and manipulating us and do not know why. Blatant lies are told and facts are twisted about to suit narratives of people that claim to want to be in a better world. Yeah? Bullshit judging on the way that they themselves treat people. Utter bullshit.

It has become ever more widely known that the mainstream media are in on some big conspiracy and one that would normally require your head to be wrapped in tinfoil. But this is in your face and everyone is showing this and proving it on the Internet. It is nothing short of crazy and affects all industries from films to gaming and, in the UK at least, all public services too. Arresting one guy for one thing, locking him up for 13 months in a matter of hours for something else is one example of many.

So I have been waiting for the mainstream media to die a horrible death. There have no doubt been drops in numbers .. people trust them less and less. CNN in America is at such a low that if it was a small company it would have long since gone out of business.

Because they all lie, twist things and are disingenuous at best.

So small people doing videos or blogs about the news for Google have been getting excuses after excuses for not getting paid. They have even had their money stopped altogether. I do not know whether Mundane Matt came up with the phrase, as I have heard others call it the same thing, but it is being referred to as 'Adpokolips'. Mundane Matt even tries to push his Patreon donations as a result of what Google have done.

Yeah .. a company for the people?

Funny as it looks to be that it is slave labour and the fact that no one has done anything about it is quite concerning. Well other than a woman going in an shooting up the place and I did think that people might start raising questions after that? Nothing as yet though.

Just for the idiots out there as far as my situation is concerned ..

  • I have no registered address currently ..
    • Which means that technically no bank account, no benefits can be claimed ..
    • Cannot find a new home
    • Not allowed to use the address I am staying at and this is not my decision .. unfortunately
    • Even if I was able, maybe on a part time basis close to here currently, I could not do a job without a registered address

Yeah you might want to ask yourself how certain demographics do it when it is this hard for someone born here? I do not know.

My daughter says they are making everything hard and bloody unbearable and we often talk about it getting too much and in all honesty .. we talk about how we would like it to end!!

Yeah another part to our story that they did not get to put in the magazines and yes .. the offer of crowd funding which has been brought up by two different people and then never been brought up again is .. evil.

So I literally do not know what to do.

But when I saw that video about Google giving mainstream media $25 Million it is obvious that Google want a left totalitarianism society and it is odd that they are against certain people talking about their political beliefs while they are allowed to control and manipulate with the money they make they obtain out of slave labour.

Bearing in mind that I am being harassed and accused of not fucking working .. by my government, despite my several serious health conditions, and morons that have a thing about freeloading and feel the need to come on, leave an idiotic comment and then disappear back under the rock they stuck their nose out from. Yeah no one informed us that the public's taxes were coming out of his personal wallet or that he thinks that everyone should agree with him. Of course it is also OK that billions upon billions are being wasted or that the public services have not only not being doing their jobs for years but also complicit in protecting criminals of the worst kinds.

I wonder why they are talking about civil war at an ever growing pace on YouTube? Yeah because this is all so in your face that it is almost like the people are being deliberately provoked into doing this?

Personally if something did kick off I hope it would be directed at the real guilty parties and that people do not allow themselves to be manipulated to fight someone else's war that do not have the balls to do so themselves?

Makes me think of a Roger Waters track from his album Amused to Death that is quite apt in this case ..

The Bravery of Being Out of Range

Yeah so I am sorry but posts and photography are liable to be nigh on non existent for the time being and unless I figure out some way through this ..

.. which in all honesty is going to require some help .. except I do not hold out much hope though I have already had an email reply from one.

The trouble is getting there and back again and if it is far ..

.. unless alcohol might help?

I have to quell the anxiety and phobias .. with these and the low magnesium problem I simply do not stand a chance! Oh crap .. that takes money!

My life is just a whole series of Catch 22s!

While the western world is turned upside down!

FREELOADER DOING NOTHING

Well after being accused of being that from someone that is an idiot, tried to twist what I said into something I did not and went back under the rock from whence they came ..

With all the pain, several mornings of nearly collapsing and the searing heat I managed to do four days, well two and two halves after running out of steam, I got out to try and continue on with my photography plans .. as per the agreed business plan I had with my Job Centre at the time only to have the DWP pull the rug from under me one week after going self employed, .. to the person making the comment .. you fucking idiot!

What he would not want to hear is in my second year of blogging I got a call while I was cycling from a lady who got my number from someone I had met who had been reading my blog .. probably inspired to say this due to an early photo of this Hooded Man and I was called a modern day Robin Hood. Was not the first or the last time that was said to me along with a few other things. Nice things before you wonder, lol

To be honest I do not feel like Robin Hood as I have not got a pile of cash I have ripped off the rich and do not feel like I am getting anywhere fast! Lol.

As for the DWP I guess they discovered I was not being kind to them and pulled the funding from a firm they should not have done as they were contractors?!

As for the photographs .. I have taken around 650 to 700 photographs across four days which technically should have been more.

I will spend the next three to four days working my way through them and uploading them .. I will be very happy if I produce between 300 and over the moon if I produce 500 pictures.

I would imagine I have taken around 1,200 to 1,800 pictures and improving my post-processing skills as well as my eye and my use of the Sony A99II camera as I go.

Here are some photos and the first is a return of the Hooded Man from around four or five years ago which became associated with me .. in a way that made me feel kind of honoured ..





































A FEW DAYS (Part 3)


Oh dear .. outside for a cigarette and I go dizzy again and it was actually slightly worse than the first day and this is now getting a little .. weird. I have no idea why this is happening.

I have tried to eat more the last few days thinking it was that but .. does not seem to make much difference.

Also my memory problem has kind of been striking again because near here there is a spot that I have used for years that I discovered a couple of months ago has couple of rare plants .. one of which I have grown and have on my YouTube channel and .. probably photos of. Well the same family but a different species. In fact I could not believe they were supposed to be found where they are and so close to London in Epping Forest?!

Well the location is about two miles from here and there is a bus. Unfortunately this is up yet another hill that is even bigger than the on coming from the other direction.

So I am thinking a bus and yet .. I am a little apprehensive because of the dizziness and weakness that I seem to keep feeling in the mornings.

There are a lot of subjects at the site that is for sure .. though I am not sure with this drought what condition they are all going to be in?

I also have my doubts I will actually find the very plant I am going there for. But I simply have to go and look around and if I find it and photograph it this would be very cool.

Shit!

I did not make it and I was put off by the hill which is long, quite an incline and on a very busy and dangerous road. I tried to find maps to a bridle path that went that way but I could not find one.

In the end I bailed and in all honesty and due to the drought it probably would have been a waste of time anyway.

So I went somewhere more local but I really did not feel like going out. However I had run out of tobacco, something I seriously need to quit .. again. I also needed lemonade to make shandies with and so as the shop was at the bottom of hill I went to an area not far from there. A place called Gunpowder Mills.

I did not find a building I wanted to photograph but I did end up seeing several things, I did not get photos of, and several other things I did get photos of!

But I was having extreme difficulties and I felt way too hot. It must have been humid today as I suffer really badly and the humidity does not even have to be that high. I have heard tales of countries that are hot and 90% humidity? Yeah .. thanks but no. I could no go there as I would die and even if I did not I would not be able to do jack shit!

Still I got a few flowers .. several butterfly species and one might be a Brown Argus .. ooh I need to look that up.

Yup. Brown Argus.

At one point I walked up to a bend trying to spot a butterfly at rest and a fox was walking towards me but had not seen me. It got within around 7 or 8 feet when it suddenly noticed me, paused for a second then ran into the long grass. A few seconds later a second one did he came except this one noticed me a little sooner. Odd.

Had difficulty getting back and once again I could not get up the damned hill. Managed to lose a bottle of lemonade as it fell through the bottom of a plastic bag, rolled into the road and was about to roll under a truck when I stopped it with my foot. Great!

I have been stung by stinging nettles quite badly .. again so my legs or tingling but before even this happened my lower legs started feeling sore. At one point I actually looked down to see some marks on my legs .. not sure what they are. Scratches or maybe a series of bad bites and judging from the size could be a Horsefly or Clegg? Jesus if it is the latter and I have more than one bite? Just a single bite can cause your leg to swell up and if I have several? Dreading that!

So it is my last day here .. but at least I made it productive.

In a way I wish I had more days but in all honesty I would need to bite the bullet and try and get on a bus. It is not the buses being packed that is the issue .. it is the buses being few and far between and old. Not a problem normally but it is .. hot. Unfortunately buses become unbearable for me as I will just soak through within minutes while watching others frantically fanning themselves without a bead of sweat in sight.

Coming up the hill there was a lady in her late fifties coming down the hill, bearing in mind she is coming .. down .. hill?! She looked as if she was struggling and she looked at me and said 'unbearable isn't it?' I said 'yes' while thinking, my word you have no idea! Of course I had a bad headache again which I always seem to get when the heat gets too much.

Bearing in mind we are talking about very local trips for a couple of hours outside and it becomes unbearable. Had I had tomorrow too I might have not gone out at all today in the hope tht I would recuperate and get further? Would have helped had I had my own bike but some hills will still be too much. That they also happen to be on dangerous stretches of roads and come to think of it .. I do not ever recall seeing cyclists use them and I have known these roads all my life.

I did not use the 85mm lens in the end.

They have returned late and I have stayed another night and am being taken home at some point this morning.

For the fourth morning in a row now I have felt nauseous. Really not sure what in the hell is going on there. Not sure why I have not noticed anything previously. Maybe it is because I normally do not leave the house for thirty minutes or so? Maybe because here the first thing I do is go outside and therefore on my feet that I notice it? Where I am the room is so small that standing up is not an option unless I am using the lavatory. Have no recollection of ever feeling nauseous doing that!

I am just thankful that this did not dog me during the day while I was here and out on the bike and wondered if it would have done had a I try to get anywhere on foot? I had planned to try but with each morning experiencing that I ended up using my nephews bike.

It is hard enough what with everything else I have to work through and then there was the intense sunlight and heat too.

Now I am just looking forward to working with the first lot of photos at some point later on this afternoon or evening and getting them up.

I had hoped that I would have gotten a reply from one of .. five people or organisations while I was here? But, no.

I have also just remembered that there were two emails I was supposed to read and respond to, one being from Healthwatch and one from NHS England?! Yeah .. this damn memory problem is really a thing and when no one is doing anything to help and your trying to keep on helping yourself .. things get forgotten very easily.

In fact I am thoroughly cheesed off with trying to get someone to help with each one reactcing and responding like your a fully functioning human being and coming out with some crap as to why they cannot help.

Father and daughter with serious issues and neither one of us has had one bloody bit of help for over a year now. Quite the opposite, in fact. We have had things taken away from us and I fear they are not done with us just yet.

My daughter was supposed to have an operation yesterday that she did not have, as her only help is more of a hindrance from an evil, selfish and inconsiderate thief and liar of a mother. I only discovered this yesterday evening.

I also looked into her Trigeminal Neuralgia and I cannot believe what I read about that and not sure how I did not come across this before? Well ..

It is one of the most painful conditions known to man?! So up there with CPRS?! Never read that before now and wondering why I have not or why it is not on any of the McGill Pain Index charts? I know it certainly sounds bad the way she describes it,

So now along with the cervical cancer, hypomagnesemia, vitamin B-12 deficiency, 'S' Protein Deficiency and Fibromyalgia she has this on top of all that?!

While having her rent refused, threatening letters to leave the council property (yup council), being threatened to be taken to court by the social services for something preposterous (seems to be a new and nationwide thing now) and ignored deliberately so by the NHS as I have been for over thirteen years now.

Onwards and sideways.

A FEW DAYS (Part 2)


It is now the next day .. my legs were weak again but not like yesterday, thankfully.

Today I do not plan on going as far so I am fitting the Sony G 70-200mm f2.8 to the A99II but attaching the 24-70mm f2.8 via the two Lowepro cases, thank heavens for Lowepro!

Of course I planned a route and a road on the map I did not know was there .. was not there! I passed across the M25 and found a spot where there were some butterflies and dead trees.

I crossed back across the road to find the spot I was after from the other side of the M25 motorway as according to the map there was another road that joined up with the one I could not find and I figured I could find the shorter route back. But no .. the road went nowhere.

Then I heard this peeping noise and three birds flew into a bush .. I got off my bike and waited .. Greenfinches?! Not seen them in years.

Of course I did not get any damned pictures!

Went a different way to a place I used to know a great deal, and where Jade Goody lived but did not see much.

Of course now I had to come back going up that damned hill again but once at the top I went to a spot a little past the road where I am staying. Put the bike against a weak fence and tried to get some more butterflies.

There were Large and Small White Butterflies along with what I think were Gatekeepers and Ringlet Butterflies. There was also the odd Skipper here and there but many proved to difficult to photograph.

I had intended to say longer but could feel my legs burning and as I managed to get three dozen or so photographs I decided to call it a day and head back to think about tomorrow. After a bath!

It also turned out I had 346 photographs from the first day. Still due to numerous .. distractions from health to the intense heat and tiredness they wont all be usable. But still even a third of them being usable would be pretty fantastic. Well to me it would be.

I also got something in the region of about 120 today. This has taken my tally well above 450 photos and if I can get the same or a little more tomorrow than I did today I will be pretty happy.

However .. the thought of post-processing all of these and going through uploading them and then tagging them all .. has my head spinning.

It is difficult so this is probably going to take me two or three days. I wont start until Friday night and likely not be close to finishing until Monday (8th July 2018). But I will upload as I go so there will be some by Friday night, some Saturday night and some Sunday night and if any are left then Monday night.

Groan!

Well .. it could be argued that King Harold will make an appearance over the weekend, as will one other character.

I cannot even recall what I took photographs of?! Just realising there are over 400 photos and trying to think what in the world I saw .. but I am having trouble.

Actually I just checked .. make that 473 images and one day to go .. provided it is not pouring with rain as, as of right now there seem to be some dark clouds brewing and it poured with torrential rain in Paris last night.

Ruins, characters, texture, flowers and a few other things .. rivers, plants the odd bridge .. wild flowers, ornamental flowers. A few insects.

Now after this third day and the three days of post processing? I really must think about visiting a museum and a few buildings in London on my bike with my camera?!

If I can do that .. even a day on my bike with my camera .. my professional camera, I will actually feel like I am getting somewhere. At long last!

Now if I can manage to get to a museum or art gallery too?! That would be cool .. the Tate Modern is the one I would like to get to. Been on the outside of it once already. I was very tempted to go in but I felt I would end up overdoing it.

Would be cool if I could find someone that could accompany me.

Be uber cool if I could find someone who also wanted to do photography themselves and this way we could chat about the subject of photography.

Hmm I just had a thought .. this would leave me with one single thing to do .. but would involve going much further afield ..

A day out doing landscape photography .. or better still a few days. You cannot go a long way on the hope that the one day you are there the light will be perfect, mores the pity.

Scotland, Wales or the Peak District would be the ideal places.

Maybe by the time I have had a day out on my bike something might have worked out with the media thing? Maybe my cancelled trip to Scotland and the Peak District and North Wales might be back on?

Fingers crossed!

I wonder if I should take the Sigma EX 85mm f1.4 tomorrow?
