What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Predictions 2025

    1. Good results for Nigel Farage following the English local elections in May. Terrible results for Conservative Party.
    2. No progress towards the marriage of same-sex couples in the Church of England
    3. Turbulent year for WordPress, which powers about half of the internet.
    4. 2025 will be the hottest year on record.
    5. No trade deal for UK with US. Increasing talk of re-aligning economy closer to EU.
    6. Ceasefire in Russia-Ukraine war but no long term solution.
    7. “Assisted Dying” aka doctor assisted suicide becomes legal in at least one of the jurisdictions of the British Isles.
    8. Turbulent year for economy but stock market higher at end of year than beginning. (FTSE currently at 8,173)
    9. There will be fewer Commonwealth Realms (ie countries which share the monarchy) by the end of 2025 than there are now.
    10. Philip Mountstephen.

    You are not safe to be let out by yourself.  You can't even blame it o­n a bus this time.  Slow down Kelvin, we all still need you, don't you know!   Guess you must be feeling pretty sore today.  Take it easy!  Get the cat to look after YOU for a change!!!

    Perhaps you should go to the nurse again to have your blood pressure checked – just in case you’ve sprained your ankle again!!

    I think its about time you invested in a pair of Doc Marten's.  I have found they are the o­nly footwear which allow me to get down a very steep hill o­n a frosty morning without flashing my underwear unwittingly to passing spectators. And you can get them in purple velvet for Lenten wear!

    The funny thing is, that on both the occasions when I have fallen, I have been wearing Doc Martins. In fact, I was even starting to wonder whether it was the fault of the shoes.

    The purple velvet for Lent idea would appeal more if we wore purple at St Saviour’s for Lent. I suspect that trying to find Doc Martins made out of unbleached linen might be difficult.
