I go back to Barney maybe once a year. It& #39;s not far from where I live now. It& #39;s where we went on family holidays in the 70s on a Blackpool or Morecambe-bound Primrose coach from the back of the Mile End Club. It wasn& #39;t far really from where I lived then,
50 miles maybe, but it was away and these are some of my fondest childhood memories. We stayed on a caravan site on the opposite bank of the river, a pleasant stroll from the town. The first newspaper I ever bought with my own money was probably the Teesdale Mercury
, to try to find out what was on and where to go. According to the story Cummings and his family were there on Easter Sunday. I wanted to go on Easter Sunday because my mam had died the day before, in a care home, from Covid
- one of the care homes the government would later claim they had thrown "a protective ring" around. But I couldn& #39;t go because we had to stay at home, protect the NHS, save lives. But it is reported that Cummings was there, 260 miles from home, under lockdown, on a family walk.
I am so fucking angry that I& #39;m not even going to use asterisks. Fucking bastard scheming lying fucking bunch of inadequate nonenties and hypocrites every one of whom went out to defend him today. Thanks. Sorry.
