Swan Underpass


I did my advice bureau tonight and lo and behold the Swan Underpass remains bereft of graffiti. Much that I am really not sure why it has to be closed off over the weekend when the graffiti had been cleared by Thursday.

We have also tried to make Puffins extinct. Puffins are those silly types of pedestrian crossings (replacing Pelicans) that don't have a light to tell you when to walk or not. They did permit a pedestrian to do a little dance on Kings Heath High Street - much to the amusement of drivers (not!), but there are no lights once people have started to cross. You just need to trust technology.

Hmmm.

Puffins were a nonsense idea from government.

In the mean time, however. The Adjudication Panel for England have decided to ban a councillor for doing casework. I kid you not. The whole system is going surreal. Check out the Coleen Gill case somewhere oop north.

On Thursday we had a regeneration meeting at which almost the whole meeting was taken up by process.

I feel like playing "My Funny Valentine". This is a really interesting number that starts based around a C minor chord with a descending note. I heard it performed by a flugel horn player at the jazz summer school in Pontypridd. We did actually sign up this person as a singer about a year later. He really is very very good. I was listening to Miles Davies' version of "My Funny Valentine" whilst meandering around my advice bureaux.

We are supposed to be releasing some of his music soon (not Miles Davies). This is really quality music.

Six months for recording a court hearing - Norman Scarth

The link is in Russian about the imprisonment of Norman Scarth who is actually 85. He has a complex history including a court hearing which found that he used a chainsaw to fight off bailiffs when he was 75. [a court judgment which is disputed see comments] However, that does not justify imprisoning him for 6 months for recording a court hearing (see the link and ask google to translate it if your Russian is not up to it). It has got into the Argyll News Because he has been held such that people cannot get to him to sign paperwork an application for a writ of Habeas Corpus was made today. This has been adjourned until next week. The English judicial system is really not good at responding to major abuses of human rights by the judicial system.
