Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage: March 2014

http://ramblingsofamadoldbaggage.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage. What it says on the tin. I'm a woman of a certain age and therefore by default must be a mad old baggage. Tiptoeing through the bluebells. Me and Mom in 2002 before she got ill. I've spent the last three days in the garden. Yes, even today when it rained or drizzled for the majority of the time I was out there having great fun with the pressure washer. My greenhouse is now pristine. Posted by Linda Mason.

http://ramblingsofamadoldbaggage.blogspot.com/2015/04/a-hustings-we-will-go_25.html

Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage. What it says on the tin. I'm a woman of a certain age and therefore by default must be a mad old baggage. A Hustings We Will Go. Storm clouds gather over Aldridge Comm. Five of the six candidates standing for election attended, the only one not there was The Monster Raving Loony Party candidate, which was a pity because his manifesto although perhaps written with tongue firmly in cheek does contain elements of local problems that do need addressing. In 2011 Walsall Council...

Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage. What it says on the tin. I'm a woman of a certain age and therefore by default must be a mad old baggage. A moment that changed my life. Back in August 1996, I stood outside an electrical retailers shop on Ealing Broadway. My life really did change by that decision to enter the shop. Posted by Linda Mason. There wasn't a great deal of fuss this morning but it was a fitting ceremony. As part of a national programme. I'm surprised that more publicity wasn't given prior to th...

Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage: November 2014

http://ramblingsofamadoldbaggage.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage. What it says on the tin. I'm a woman of a certain age and therefore by default must be a mad old baggage. Poppies and a veil of tears. We found a relatively quiet spot to stand silently by the moat, each wrapped up in our own thoughts. The rain was apt, providing a veil of tears through which the river of blood flowed.

http://ramblingsofamadoldbaggage.blogspot.com/2015/05/sins-of-fathers-rant-against-laziness.html

Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage. What it says on the tin. I'm a woman of a certain age and therefore by default must be a mad old baggage. Sins of the Fathers: A Rant against laziness and an apology. Last Wednesday I emailed our local councillors, John Murray, Timothy Wilson and standing for re-election on Thursday, John Rochelle, as reported here. The email is reproduced once again:. When Walsall Council announced that much of the Borough's youth service would be closing, following the setting of the bud...

Me to Walsall Manor Outpatients: "Hello, I was told by Nuclear Imaging two weeks ago today that I would have an outpatients appointment within two weeks. Do you have an appointment booked for me please? Outpatients: "No there's no appointment for you but you are on the waiting list for your cardiac procedure.". Me: "What cardiac procedure?

Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage. What it says on the tin. I'm a woman of a certain age and therefore by default must be a mad old baggage. In the Bleak Mid Winter of Cuts and Decline. Main pathway into Park Lime Pits from car park. Water levels are incredibly high- the steep embankments look positively benign! The brook that runs through the reserve was as fast and full as I have ever seen and it is making massive inroads into the banking. No willow weaving to keep the banks sturdy and strong. Riddians Br...

And then the tears rolled down my face, slowly, silently. The pain in my heart solid like a rock. The longing to hug you and hold you, a physical pain almost renting my body in two. I miss you Son.

Ramblings of a Mad Old Baggage. What it says on the tin. I'm a woman of a certain age and therefore by default must be a mad old baggage. The view from the top of Whetstone Lane. I haven't much felt like engaging with the world in a social manner just recently. It's been a case of staying indoors and avoiding people and even avoiding in depth conversations on-line. Today I decided that a walk would help because after all, walking has always helped me think things through. More from the conservation area.
