Sutton: George V “GR” Postbox (c. 1910) – Corner of St Dunstan’s Hill & Westfield Road! (6.8.2023)

06/08/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

However, some Postboxes are always permitted to keep the designation of older (Constitutional) Monarchs. Within the grounds of Windsor Castle, for instance, we have observed a Postbox dedicated to King Edward VII (reigned 1901-1910) – with another Postbox in Oxford dedicated to King Edward VIII (who only ruled for the single year ‘1936’ – before being replaced after his ‘Abdication’ by King George III). Perhaps the above Postbox was constructed as early as 1910 – meaning it is currently 113-years old! Without knowing it, when this Postbox turned ‘100’ in 2010 – my family lived right next door to it!

Imperial Germany: Voices of British POWs Recorded During WWI! (24.7.2022)

The sheer ‘localism’ is astonishing! This is a time before globalism and when people came from the places they were born into – places they were not expected to leave throughout their lifetimes. The Germans wanted to use these recordings to train German Colonial Troops – after Germany had won WWI – to invade, settle and control all parts of the UK prior to British culture being usurped, wiped out and eventually replaced with German language and culture!

Canada: Indigenous Women Remain Unbroken! (23.7.2023)

Cormier did not have to answer any questions in court, but seeing him on a Canadian Broadcast Corp. (CBC) segment talking about how he gave her drugs and how Tina suggested to him that she wanted “to play” when she asked him for a place to stay when she was homeless makes me feel sick to my stomach. She was a child facing multiple traumas, she was in government care, she had little family, she was in deep grief, she was extremely vulnerable—yet this man positioned himself as a victim of a child’s desire. In 2019, the Winnipeg police told the CBC that while her case is still open, they are not currently pursuing any suspects.

DPRK: Workers’ Party Delivers on New Houses! (12.7.2023)

With the unanimous will of all the people of Sindo County – he expressed a suitably ‘measured’ and ‘respectful’ warm gratitude of respect toward Comrade Kim Jong Un! Why the restraint? Well, Comrade Kim Jong Un is spreading the noble management policy of ‘People-First’ throughout this Socialist land – which is magnified through his outstanding ideas and great leadership! He already possesses an infinite noble virtue and carries-out this policy regardless of the response – simply because it is ‘right’ to do so!

Salute: Iain Hughes – British Firefighter “Missing in Action”! (27.6.2023)

27/06/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

The WMFS chief fire officer, Wayne Brown, said: “Iain’s disappearance is unspeakably sad. We are giving Iain’s family all the support we can at this distressing time. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and everyone close to Iain. He is a highly respected and much-loved colleague and friend to many.”

Hughes, 42, was aiming to raise £21,000 for the British Heart Foundation, Midlands Air Ambulance and Fire Fighters Charity. The Channel crossing is 21 miles, and Hughes was hoping to raise £1,000 for each mile of the swim.

OceanGate: Full Refunds and Apology – 泰坦尼克探险潜水器失踪5人生死未卜 – (22.6.2023)

22/06/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

As there is no ill-feeling – OceanGate will NOT be charging the families concerned for the loss of the Submersible (Titan I) and will NOT be pursuing renumeration for the ample cost of the Search and Rescue Mission. Furthermore:

1) OceanGate will be issuing a full refund of $125,000 to the families of each participant.

2) OceanGate will be offering a 50% Discount coupon to the five families concerned.

3) This 50% Discount coupon will be redeemable for special ‘Titan II’ tours to the seabed for those onboard to observe the wreck of Titan I!

4) Titan I will become a ‘tomb’ for those who died onboard – with a special compartment reserved especially for those of the Islamic faith! This will be distinguished by a ‘Crescent Moon’ engraved on the outer structure!”
