Rebellion at Bulcamp by Dennis M. Skeet
While today occupants of what is now known as Blythview tend to be holiday visitors enjoying the pool facilities, the beauty of the Blyth valley and the beach at Southwold there was a time when these buildings served a very different purpose and those that occupied them had very little satisfaction from their surroundings
England’s ancient Poor Laws brought violent reaction from some of our forefathers.
Beating the Christmas Blues
December is the one time of the year when I am likely to go into major depression. Minor signs appear towards the end of September as the supermarket shelves fill with Christmas cards and garishly painted boxes of chocolate biscuits. By the end of October my mood, like the days, gets darker as mince pies, Christmas nuts and wreaths of holly are added to those yawning Christmas shelves.
By now I am dreading the phone ringing and those inevitable words: “Have you any plans for Christmas?†or worse still “It would be nice to see you over Christmasâ€. Urghhhhhhhhhh!
