Madness

My son says that lockdown is causing a problem of regression among children.  Maybe adults too.  Rummaging in my freezer I came across a packet of English back bacon and a sliced wholemeal loaf from the UK.  You cannot imagine my excitement and the sheer childlike pleasure I gained by smelling and then eating a bacon sandwich.  Yes I regressed.

Trump lives in a permanent state of regression.  I am reading a book written by two journalists from the Washington Post called 'A very stable genius', his description of himself.  They explain that he has an attention span of a two year old, he is incapable of understanding or absorbing any facts and that all explanations have to be given to him in picture form because he doesn't read or even comprehend the written word.  The mind boggles as to what the post it note says next to the nuclear button.

Pompeo is under investigation for using a member of staff to walk his dog, taker his dirty laundry to the cleaners and do other domestic chores.  During an event yesterday at the White House Trump was asked about this.   His response was - so he got a member of staff to do his washing up.  Maybe his wife was out.   Regression again - to the 1950s.

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.
