V for Vendetta

I must have dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street

Now, did you read the news today?
They say the danger has gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
They're burning into the night

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go around
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in


Oh, superman, where are you now?
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, these men of power
Are losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is a land of confusion

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago
When the sun was shining
And all the stars were bright all through the night
In the wake of this madness, as I held you tight
So long ago


I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

Now, this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to

Abandoned horror

Whilst out doing some urban exploration I came across this maniac....run....run for you lives....don't stop and don't turn back, he will be in my nightmares for some time to come...











Night night
Sleep tight
I will be in your dreams tonight......

Dday, the 69th anniversary

So here we are at the 69th anniversary of Dday, the largest most complex invasion in history to liberate Europe from the tyranny of Nazi rule.  I have visited the beaches a few times and thought that today would be the day to put up a few of my pics in testament to the brave men who fought for us..














This last pic is of the grave of lieutenant H. D. Brotheridge, the first allied soldier to die on Dday, during the liberation of Pegasus Bridge.  The inscription reads 'out of the bitterness of war, he found the perfect peace'


We will remember their sacrifice.

They gave their today for our tomorrow
