Old Ruth

BBC 2 Tuesday.The most striking part of this program,for me,were the British fellows saying the Poles earned 50p and hour and another £2.50. And they were jobless and WANTED to work.But when told they can earn £7.00 an hour--FOR WHAT--picking and packing veges they laughed and said NO WAY.One Pole said the British are too lazy to work and benefits ????The Poles would not encourage others to come if there were no jobs for them in this wonderful land of honey ! It happened in the 60's when all the London transport was taken over by the Black immigrants and Heathrow airport cleaning,etc by the Pakistanis.Come on Brits GET WORKING and stop lolling about and complaining.

Oh how I wish I was born at least 20 yrs later ! Life on other planets would just confirm what I have always thought MUST be possible.Some of the scientists last night were not so young anymore and it must be a frustating for them to think that a life's work may not reach fruition in their lifetime.I did wonder if putting some instruments on our moon would not bring them any nearer,so to speak, to what they are seeking ?? Well I suppose I should be satisfied with the many advances that have occurred in my lifetime.Sad to say there are so many that I have NO idea how they work ! My 9 yr old grandson probably knows more than I do.

Any South Africans blogging ??????
