Another beautiful bright sunny day in Sussex. Cold, crisp and bright - the sort of day that makes you heart soar.

Gorse Fox has been pondering, overnight, whether to just give the Robber baron Gordon Brown The Man that Stole your Old Age all of GF's income and request a small allowance on which to scrape by. This pernicious man has eroded our present and continues to destroy our future. GF is so glad he is not a pensioner who had fought for our freedoms during WW2 - he would feel so betrayed and depressed that the once fine edifice of British Parliament now thinks so little of the dedication and sacrifice of a generation that it continues to drive them to penury.

But wait, GF forgot, these pensioners will entitled to cheap bus travel... that's all right then! (Note to self: try and locate a bus)

GF wouldn't feel so irritated if he believed the ruling underclass actually had any respect for its employers (us). They seem to think we are a bunch of ignorant cretins who won't understand that they are being short-changed at the same time that the ruling underclass are feathering their nests.
