Confusion reigns

As I understand it Parliament voted to take control of Brexit and then voted against their own 8 alternatives.  In the US the Mueller report was finished but no-one has seen it but the Attorney General who more or less declared Trump innocent of conspiracy and obstruction of justice.  The dictators of this world must be laughing themselves silly at how absurdly our democracies are functioning, or not functioning, not in any sensible and fair way anyway.

Apparently the garbage men are on strike.  My neighbours and I didn't know this but after the bins sat outside for three days someone at the tennis club said the tip was closed as well due to strike action.  No-one seems to know how long the strike will last or what they are striking about and no-one seems that bothered about it either, which is normal in France.

As my bruises turn to purple and my body gets stiffer I am contemplating whether I have any chance of winning my match on Saturday.  I doubt it but as there is no-one on the team to replace me I shall have to give it a go. 

I had a letter from my UK bank today.  It informed me that changes were being made to their Travel Insurance policy and their Golf Network.  The last sentence informed me that as I am not a UK resident the above does not apply as I am not eligible to take advantage of these.

French railway workers are striking 2 days in 5 for the next few months in protest against Macron's reforms.  To launch these strikes huge protests were organised in Paris but oh dear the strikers couldn't get there because the trains weren't running due to strike action.

stormy weather

Last evening there was a huge storm, lightning,  wind and torrential rain in Agra. This morning the devastation was clear. No power, 50 dead and hundreds of trees down. On the way to the taj mahal  I could see crushed cars, flooded streets  and so many trees.   Then out of all this destruction I arrived at the taj mahal. It doesn't matter how many pictures you see  they cannot compare to seeing this exquisite building rising up above you.  I have waited so long to see it and  it  is far better than I could have imagined.
