Old Way Mansion - Torbay - Where Me & Gee Were Married!

UK: The Hidden Celtic Structures in Modern Families! (23.6.26)

Of course, conflicting with powers outside the family is a normal occupations for working-class Celts. Although we can seldom win these wars in real terms – we win in another way – as the inner structure of the family is protected and secured. We divert the enemy and turn their attention to a more or less irrelevant feature which they invariably fall for. We encourage the false idea that “they are more intelligent” and that “they have beaten us” – and we retreat in mock defeat. This is how we handle the authorities. Children watch their parents doing this from an early age – and on it goes. The modern equivalent of showing the Shire-Reef our naked bottoms when he comes to collect taxes. Letting the middle and upper-classes think we are thick is one of our greatest defences. Inwardly, we cannot be rattled regardless of what is done to use externally. We will not bend to any blow and we never show it hurts.

Moses Waveman - Peter Wyes RIP

UK: An Email to my Deceased Father – Moses Waveman! (30.5.2026)

Even the far-right tried to have ago – pretending you said this or said that – apparently unaware that half of your family are “Chinese” (many of the current staff-members of Hadleigh Court – the care home that evicted you – are members of the far-right and punished you for not supporting their twisted ideas). This fact, once it became known, holed that far-right beneath the water-line and it never recovered. I knew what you think – but you never openly spoke about politics – and yet there are numerous utterances that somehow you mysteriously always managed to align with their (often nefarious) viewpoints. The far-left kept its distance from you – viewing you as a product of bourgeois excess – how wrong they were! My father was NOT religious – but you WERE spiritual. Quite a contradiction for the small-minded. Whatever the case, you fought against the capitalists on my behalf when I was a child, a youth, and an adult. I stood with you when I grew-up and was able. I know continue this fight.

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.

"When I Grow Up - I Want to Be Like You" - Doctor & Mum Cut from the Same Cloth!

Cuba: “When I Grow Up – I Want to Be Like You” – Doctor & Mum Cut from the Same Cloth! (5.5.2026)

“There’s a lot of fear,” he admits. “Fear of not being able, of not being on time, losing more days… It scares us. The effectiveness of the treatment is lost.”
But Yohima does not stop at lamenting. His voice tightens, becomes precise.

“Regardless of all the difficult things we go through, like every good Cuban, we have the heartbeat, the knowledge. And emotions don’t need fuel, they don’t need oil to function.”

And then he shows with pride and relief the walls of his office. Equipped with what you need to spend the night. This small and warm space has something that no blockage can frustrate: a children’s gallery. “The children, when they arrived here, did not want to cross the threshold of the door,” he recalls. A colleague had the idea of distracting them with drawings. “They were accumulating and we were sticking the drawings on the wall, some that had no color, we colored them.” The children came back and saw his work, he motivated them and wanted to bring another one. “The idea is that they make this place a place for them, where everything is fine, where everything is safe.”
