Field-Stripping Devices is an Important Skill!

Surrey: Gee & Kai-Lin Field Strip & Assemble a Wooden Stool! (29.5.2026)

Anyway, we visited the “Rural Life Living Museum” (ob May 28th, 2026) – not far from the log-cabin area we were staying at in Tilford (a bourgeois cesspit of wealth). We have visited similar places not far from Sutton, and also in Oxford, Devon, and Cornwall. Many Moons ago, I visited places like this in the Lake District and in Scotland. They are essentially centres of education for school-children – and for adults to reminisce. My childhood (pre-Star Wars) was a very different reality to that which exists today. The working-class pre-1977 were very localised in mentality – with the middle-class attending university and developing a world-wide appreciation. This difference in education always benefits the middle-class who understand more and are able to use this knowledge to keep the workers in their place. Stll, it was a good day out and I will have to author a number of posts to cover it all.

Surrey: Visiting “Jane Austen’s House”! (26.5.2026)

Indeed, Jane was only 42-years old when she died (despite never marrying or having children of her own) – but she lived through the heady days of French Revolution, the rise of Napoleon, and the Battle of Waterloo. Despite the political class of Britain opposing the French Revolution (and opposing all the Socialist developments that arose from it) – many middle-class, literate British individuals found the times to be inspiring. Although I do not know for certain with regards Jane Austen – she was one of those literate British women who trailblazed in a man’s world via her written works (Pride & Prejudice, Sense & Sensibility, etc) – which are still best sellers today. Many of her works are performed as plays, and have been adapted for TV and the big screen. Whatever the case, on Tuesday May 26th, we headed out up the road to a nearby place called “Chawton” – where one of the houses owned by the Austen family is located.

CSA: Celebrating the Confederate 1862 “Liberation” of Maryland from Lincoln’s Tyranny! (19.5.2026)

I am blessed to have been born a free Englishman. British academics are the best in the world when not under duress from oppressive governments. I have piles of English books written fairly about the Confederacy – a movement I believe would have led to a “Socialist” North America if it ha prevailed. The CSA would now be supplying the Comrade-State of Cuba (instead of killing it through sanctions), rewarding a Socialist Cina, Vietnam, Laos, Venezuela and Iran – whilst blockading what is left of the Federal States for their greed and belligerence toward Socialist States. The Native Americans would have their own Independent country in what is now the Western United States – free of Eurocentric interference – whilst the State of Israel would be in a remote area of Brazil with “Zionism” being outlawed as a form of Jewish-derived “White Supremacy” (see the 1975 UN Resolution) and the subsequent ICC and ICJ Declamations regarding the Zionist Genocide in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran. South Africa would be rewarded for holding Israel accountable for its Crimes Against Humanity and Trotskyism (as a right-wing attack on Marxist-Leninism) would be an imprisonable deviation. Thank you to the Confederate soldiers who gave their lives in pursuit of a higher freedom!

England: Local Council Elections (London) – How a Postal Vote Works! (24.4.2026)

Of course, the centralised democracy found within Marxist-Leninist countries is far more empowering – but we have to operate where we find ourselves in reality. This New Labour Party is now the enemy of the people. What once acted as a vehicle for many different types of Socialist Movements to gain power(although its middle-class leadership “Proscribed” the Communist Party in 1921) – it is now a soft-conservative sand thoroughly reactionary entity that is shutting down the NHS and torturing the nation’s elderly and disabled. We are not the US and we should not kow tow to the US industrial military complex. We are English and should display some bollocks in this matter! We should stand our ground. I grew-up in a Socialist Britain that was like a Soviet State with very little in common with the US. We must vote as far-left as possible to serve the best interests of the workers. I remember Joseph Stalin stating that he often thought of a poor family suffering due to unemployment – and based all his policies on relieving this injustice. Again, stand your ground. Vote as you will – but maintain your freedom of thought!

Where Buses Go To Die!

UK: Weird News from England – Eerie Aerial Images Show “Britain’s Biggest Bus Graveyard”! (21.4.2026)

The spot has become popular with urban explorers, something which the landowners have condemned, saying they are ‘wrongfully’ breaking into the site. Barnsley has been dubbed the ‘bus scrapping capital’ of the UK following the success of entrepreneur Paul Sykes, 82, who is one of Britain’s richest people, being worth a cool £775m, according to The Sunday Times Rich List.

Aged 19, he started his own business dismantling buses for scrap metal and later evolved into exporting engines and parts, which were fitted in fishing junks in The Far East, Hong Kong, Penang and Singapore. He also exported complete buses to Australia, New Zealand, Africa and other commonwealth countries, which he did profitably for over 20 years.

One of his companies also became the largest distributor of buses in the UK.

1745 Coaching Stone - Original 18th Century GPS!

Sutton: 18th Century Coaching-Stone – the Original GPS! (13.4.2026)

I may well have written about the old coaching-stones scattered around Sutton and Cheam – I now of two – but was unaware of the date they were established. Basically, these devices informed travellers on foot, horse, or carriage – how many miles it was from where they were to the centre of London. Coachmen could either read the inscription engraved on the stone – or was taught what the stone said and remembered where it was when driving on the road – either way – these coaching-stones served as the original GPS system for travel. I think the Roman established something similar thousands of years ago – so the concept was not new in 1745. What I did not realise is that these stones have now received official recognition of being historically important monuments worthy of preservation and protection. The iron-bars and plaque are the new editions which I only saw when taking a rare walk through Sutton.
