Summer’s Here?
Well maybe but so far the ’silly season’ in the press hasn’t started. What with the Government’s troubles, the US elections and far more serious things like the atrocities being committed in Zimbabwe, the terrible tragedies in Burma and China, the newspapers have had plenty of things to write about. Not to say the undoubted increase in knife crime amongst younger people.
In normal circumstances one would say that some day soon all this will be swept aside in favour of a two-headed sheep but this year one doubts that. Of course men, and women, are just as bad or good as they have ever been but we have been hearing so much bad news lately that the odd silly season story might be quite welcome so long as it is cheerful.
