Sometimes I worry that my cheerful, zealous personality does not come across in my blog entries. To clear this up I am publishing the first draft of my entirely whimsical and mostly made up “Dictionary of Terms used, Deliberately or Not”, or “Gavtionary”. To view this work of nonsense click here.

I’ve discovered that this blogging thing is a little addictive. I am having trouble, it turns out, limiting myself to one post per day! I have, therefore, decided not to restrict myself in this way and will now post more often.


I have only just found this and though Tim Worstall posted it a long time ago, I think it is worthy of linkage. The heading of this post of Latin for “The European Union must be destroyed” and is, without question, not too strong in sentiment!

Tim has asked for graphics to help spread the use of this latin phrase and the following is my modest contribution which, I hope, shows that England, at least within the UK, is anti-EU. Click the image to see his post:
