Payback Time

In a moment of sober reflection (the beer's cooling in the fridge as I type) I've come to the realisation that most of the things that really annoy me are due to the apathy and ignorance of other people. Now I can't believe that I'm alone in thinking this so why don't we all get together and do something about it.
Not enough people turn out to vote because they don't believe they have a choice and there is no way of letting the powers that be know this - at the very least there should be a box to mark "none of the above" consequence is that we get a government who appear to be out of touch with reality, let alone the views of the country it purports to represent. So fight back, if you don't believe you have a choice spoil the ballot paper - if enough people did then it they might eventually listen to us.
Likewise don't just complain about how bad the music scene is at the moment go and support live music in local venues - get to know the people who book the acts and tell them what you like and what would encourage you to get a few mates to go along with you (although I don't think most places will bow to the pressure to provide both male and female eye candy)
And as for the lack of manners most people seem to exhibit in the supermarket - get even, if they get in your way - fill their trolley with lard and sanitary products whilst they're not looking.

...people who use your photos without giving credit where its due, hanging them up by the ears on Colchester Castle seems like a good idea...
