Man up in Memory
On the radio the other day there was a section on the difficulties of working from your cold home during lockdown!! Couldn't quite believe how this ludicrous subject had been given air space but there you go. You'd think that people would not only be happy to be alive, but also be pretty damn pleased to be able to work, whether from home or not. Well apparently not. This new world of whingers, were phoning in to share ways to keep themselves warm whilst sat at the computer screen in their terribly cold houses. It's surely not rocket science is it and it's not too difficult to work out that if you put more clothes on you'll be warmer. What about the people who work outdoors day in day out in all weathers?! After a while, I calmed myself down before bursting a blood vessel, whilst comparing the attitudes of people today from those of the good old days. Am I being insensitive for thinking that the majority just need to grow a pair!! When our brave heroes went off to war, they weren't able to think about home comforts, they just had to get on with it. They suffered, without whining. You can also be sure, that when the brave souls, lucky enough to return home finally did, they didn't even have the option of central heating and more than likely gathered round the stove with the rest of the family in the kitchen. I remembered them on Sunday, I remembered them today and I will always remember how lucky I am.
