So my Dad is from a poor family of 9 children who used to sleep 2 in a bed & have shared clothes, so he claims.
I think my Dad & Simon Taylor share a lot in common in regards to taste.
These are some things I took photos of that I like on Thursday this week. (not saying where they are in case Taylor sends a Labour rep to tear them apart)
But these are the things I LOVE about my job. I get to see these awesome things day to day that makes England magic. My Fave hobby is house spotting and I would love to do a coffee table book on my fave doors of English houses. I am not a nosy person, in regards to peoples privacy but I admit I love looking at interesting & quirky houses. I would love to be able to save them all & for everyone to have their dream house WITHOUT ruining other peoples. I think its possible if you get the RIGHT people in charge & the "talented" architects over to Africa or OZ where they can do less harm and more good.
The wood one probably is a coral. lol.
I actually wonder who lives in houses & what they do. What if I had grown up in that area, gone that that local shop... Its doesnt have to be a quirky house, there are loads of normal houses I see & just have a feel for.. like "what if I had had a girlfriend who lived there" or "there" Like Tamworth or Stroud or Norwich or Wherever..
Things like this are ART. Not a toilet in tate modern. REAL ENGLISH history and culture. Every one is like a painting and worth as much as any painting or more.
They are NOT to be ripped down by American C.I.A. hack muffins to rob us of our heritage. Or cast aside by Taylor & crew, with a back handed re-build that ends up being a demolishion new build. Or EXCUSES EXCUSES that structure this, structure that, lie through your teeth, you will do anything & everything to get the land for a building project.
The fact is this. We do NOT want some Disney Land, Doll world fake buildings thrown up like a coral. YOU DO NOT KNOW DOWN THE FUCKING SHIT. YOU SUPPORT IT. I DONT CARE WHAT TAYLOR SAYS, HE IS A LYING TARD. GO BY HIS ROAD SIGNS AND YOU WILL KNOW THAT TO BE THE FACT.
I have collected some furniture for If I ever get my own house & ny dad wants to & nearly did throw it in the skip!!! To him is is "CRAP" "JUNK" "RUBBISH". Everything I love & like my dads testimony is it is a load of junk & rubbish for the bonfire scrap heap. So I have to fight for what I like & love.
Taylor id like this with West Yorkshire. - He thinks West Yorkshire is a loada crap scrap rubbish & wants to build Tim Kingsmans Police fortress university. - Even the campus police HQ houses in Wakefield might end up like that if he is not stopped.
If you want cybertron in stonework, then by all means build it. PLEASE FOLLOW TAYLOR TO OZ, via the REDBRICK ROAD... & start a new superior civilisation. Build your dreams! BUT WHAT RIGHT DOES HE HAVE TO KNOCK DOWN OUR HOME, OUR HISTORY & OUR SPECIAL PLACES? NONE I SAY.
Builders can be employed to repair & do loads of different work. Not Build cyberton in stonework over the tombstone of West Yorkshire. IMHO.
This is my own opinion only. Its not "all about me". I feel that if people with less money had no chips about house sizes & style that with an honest opinion they would preserve West Yorkshire, and if they wanted a city they would move to Leeds or London, or Birmingham. I dont know what you think.
I also think the "Labour party" itself was all too convenient to appear in 1800 just when all the factorys were thrown up & the terrace houses... pretending to be for the working folk. What a loada bollocks. If the Labour party suddenly appeared in 1800 when factorys were growing & terrace houses type buildings then WHAA??!!! then follows MORE & MORE OF IT??!!! MASSIVE CON. Something to believe in while getting ripped off more & more like the Lottery - 3 out of 4 losses! here to bring you your dreams!
cloned cuttlery! never be envious of a fork or spoon again!
Come on. Are you retarded?? BLAIR, CAMERON, CLINTON, BUSH... BOLLOCKS. PARTY MY ASS. CUT THE SPENDING. IMHO
ENOUGH PARTYS. Partys should be free not paid. The MP's want the lifestyle, they can get Eaton school dinner & A free bus home if they WANT to do it with private jet included. you dont NEED A WAGE when you are an MP' in service.
NO WAGES FOR MP's. BUS TICKET, LUNCH AND A SUIT. PLANE INCLUDED FOR PURPOSE OF JOB & FANCY DINNER WITH OBAMA.
I will tell you the COOLEST things I have seen in my life and it will BORE YOUR MIND TO KINGDOM COME.
Once I was driving through a village somewhere around Boston/Kings Lynn and it was Winter & this old guy was Ice Skating down the Dyke!!! in Old School ice skates!! Really was great to see. As if you can have a Traditional English Ice Skating session on a frozen Dyke in Winter, with some Guy who should have been driving a vintage car.. With his hands behind his back! haha.
Also I loved seeing the Pack of Hunting Dogs with tongues all wagging happys as ever all being hearded down the Lane at Stratton Audley, with the Tetley Tea men on Bicicles behind them. I dont even think the dogs needed to go hunting to have fun. They just loved being in a pack and going for a walk together! These scenes I guess are like an painting you might find somewhere of a pheasant in a field. Very England.
I have forgotten the other 2 things on this list of things though!! Grrr.
I will have to try remember them
