Fly-tipping, Wood End (Harrow & Ealing)

Wood End Way (Ealing)

Wood End Road (Harrow)

It can be no coincidence that two lots of what looks like topsoil and grass have appeared at the time along a stretch of residential roads that cross the border from Ealing into Harrow. The perpetrators have chosen two spots that are not "overlooked." This is abominable and they should be found and severely punished. The mounds may not be very visible by night and could cause a serious accident.

Update 4 Feb. 2020: Another load dumped further along the same stretch:

Fly-tipping in South Vale (Harrow) beside "Road Closed" sign

There's only one thing to say about Brexit day...

Signs of the times?

Junction of Greenford Road and Cavendish Avenue, Harrow

This looks the way England feels, rundown, neglected, demoralised under Bodger Johnson, heading out of Europe to drift alone on an unpowered skiff in the middle of the Atlantic. "Global..."

I Like the Way

I like the way birds rise before us

to have quality time they can share,

the way trees go to ground in winter

and turn their roots up in the air.

I like the way redundant leaves

gather on corners to shoot the breeze

and when the moon drifts over the eaves,

a crazy robin talks in its sleep.

I like the way when I say goodnight

then you say goodnight the same

and forgetting all cares of the evening,

how we sleep till the birds sing again.
