Capitalism has, supposedly, triumphed. Some claim there is no better way to run our societies than a mix of liberal democracy and free market enterprise. Business gives wealth and opportunity to us all. Consultants and economists from the West swarm into the new market economies of Central Europe, with their overnight cases, to show them how to do it our way in 24 hours flat.

Charles Handy (The Empty Raincoat)

We all differ in what we know, but in our infinite ignorance we are all equal.

Wrestling prayers can wonders do,
Bring relief in deepest straits;
Prayer can bring a passage through
Iron bars and brazen gates.

In the past few months, this thread has come to mean a lot to me.....
And to all my beautiful friends here...

Thank you for the music...
The songs I'm singing...
Thanks for all the joys they're bringing....

With best wishes and

Merry Christmas to all...

Happy holidays...
