Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth

As some of you know, today I was due to fly to the Greek island of Skiathos, then take a boat to the equally Greek island of Skopelos for a week of late summer sun, Mythos & baklava for breakfast, and lots and lots of photography. BUT (obviously there’s a ‘but’ because I’m still here!) as I was due to fly with Thomas Cook, if you’re in the UK you will know why our trip was cancelled. In fact if you’re not in the UK you will probably know anyway, as the impact to the tourist industry of the demise of this well-established airline and tour operator is going to be worldwide.
It’s been heartbreaking to see how the TC employees have been treated- thinking of those thousands of people who, this time last week had a job, and now don’t. Keeping things in perspective, the inconvenience/disappointment of a cancelled trip is nothing compared to what’s happened to them. I strongly feel that those ‘at the top’ should be donating some of their multi-million-pound bonuses into the redundancy pot for those people.
So as I’m not in Greece, here is a photo taken at the equally exotic location of…..Ipswich Waterfront!! Not sure why I chose this one really- maybe it represents the lock on my suitcase which never got to see the light of day!
Wishing you all a fabulous weekend :)
This cactus hanging on the wall I thought I would give it another perspective in view and it does matter.
