Britain Needs A Leader Like This!

 

 

 

                Prime Minister John Howard - Australia

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.

Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.'  

'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom'

'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society .. Learn the language!'

'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'

'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.'

'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom,

'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'

'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'

Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves, English citizens will find the backbone to start speaking and voicing the same truths.

If you agree please SEND THIS ON

Feeling Quiet
Hearing Apologise Timberland feat one republic

Hi everyone, have just realised how long it is since I last posted an entry on here, so much has happened in the past couple of months some of it good some of it not so good so will just give a brief run through of whats been happening in my little corner of the world.  As I mentioned in my last entry I've started a new job, its fab, has taken a little while to get used to the more relaxed way of working but now I've gotten over that hurdle I'm really enjoying it.  Don't get me wrong I loved my old job and the biggest reason for leaving it was my need for regular hours with becoming a single parent at the start of this year, but in the new job I'm faced with new challenges and thats always a good thing, keeps my on my toes, also new job is a little like being at home when I'm in work as I now work with 5 to 10 year olds who may or may not have some of the following Autism, Aspergers and/or ADHD, guess psychiatric services like the letter A lol.

On the not so good side, I had to have my horse put to sleep a couple of weeks ago, this was totally out of the blue, I got a phonecall off a friend at the yard where he was stabled telling me he was lying down in the field and wouuldnt get up, headed straight from work over to see him and called the vet, when the vet arrived she discovered he had shattered his shoulder and there was nothing else could be done for him, so we had to put him to sleep, after 7 years of owning him and telling everyone that he was the only man to never let me down I was devastated, am getting over it now but sometimes something will happen to start me off again, might sound a bit stupid to some people after all it was just a horse, but am sure to anyone who as ever lost a much loved animal it will make sense. 

on a different note a mate of mine has asked me to do her a favour and plugh her nieces website, apparently her niece gets 8p everytime someone visits her site and clicks on the adverts on the left hand side of her page, I think thats right, anyway heres the link, http://www.omgiloveherstyle.com/  ... pop by and help her out if you have time, even leave a little comment to let her know you visited if you can, thanks. 

<FONTCOLOR=#3333FF size="4">I'm sure there's a million and one things left to tell you but am also sure your all falling asleep at your computers by now, so I'm going to go grab a coffeee and chill out for an hour before having to start all the regular chores that being mum entails, hope your all keeping well and just in case I dont manage to make it back this side of Christmas, I hope you all have a great Christmas and a Happy new year, I know for one I'll be glad to see the back of 2007,

Big Hugs to you all

Sam xx

Feeling Hopeful
Hearing Red Dragon Radio Hi Peeps, well as the subject says, long time no blog. I tried to leave an entry a few times over last couple of months but ended up deleting them as they sounded so self pitying and although it did me good to get things off my chest here I felt that everything was a little too raw to post, hopefully you can understand that.  Anyway, hopefully the black days are behind me now, no doubt I still have a few grey ones ahead, but who hasn't and I am determined to face whatever the future holds with my old positive mental attitude (yay the old Sam is back in town, lol).  I have so much to tell you all and no where near enough time to write about everything in full at the moment as I have to get ready for work soon, so will just briefly tell you my news and then fill you in with more details later.  Firstly, the court case for the kids is finally over, I have gotten residency of them, while ex OH gets what the court considers reasonable access, needless to say his idea of reasonable is different to the courts, but because of this the judge set out a very detailed contact order which he stated ex must stick to as whole case was tape recorded in court, therefore can be no saying "thats not what was agreed".  Secondly, I have a new job, havent started it yet, am working my notice at the moment, will still be nursing, but working with children and families, which I'm really looking forward to as I think it will be really interesting, also the hours are great, Monday to Thursday 8 til 4 and Friday 8 til 1.30, no shifts, no weekends, no nights, yipee.  Thirdly I have become an aunty for the first time, my baby brother and his wife had a little boy last week and he is absolutely gorgeous, although he was a surprise to us all as the hospital had told them they were having a girl, hehe,  I'll post a couple of pics when I have more time.  Anyway thats my news, I'll try to catch up with some blogs this week and post some comments, hope your all well, take care, Sam xx

Feeling Happy
Hearing MIKA's Any Other World

Well I cant believe a year has passed already since I celebrated my 40th Birthday (not sure if celebrated is right word to use here given the circumstances at the time).  Anyway, things are plodding along in my world, ex OH is still playing the prat where girls are concerned, having just had them for a week as ordered by bloody courts, not letting them have any contact with me at all during this time despite them asking him if they could phone me and when I eventually managed to get hold of him to check that they were all ok as I hadnt heard from them he refused to tell me where they were, refused to let me speak to them and told me that he would not be bringing them back on friday as expected but would be keeping them till saturday night instead, kids or I were not happy about this but couldnt do anything about it given the circumstances, when kids got back last night at 8pm they were so glad to be home that it made my heart ache, the 10 year old was in tears and wouldnt let me go, all she kept saying to me was that she had missed me so much and had wanted to phone me but her dad would just ignore her when she asked him and after a while she could see that look he gets in his eyes when he gets mad, how bad is it that a 10 year old says that, she has told me she doesnt want to go with him next weekend and under the circumstances court order or not there is no way am I going to make her if she still feels the same way when the time comes.  Well enough of the negatives regarding ex OH, I have some happy news that I want to share with you all, it may seem a little strange given the fact that I have only been away from idiot ex since January, but about 4 months ago I met someone online and we seemed to hit it off straight away, he is everything ex isn't, he makes me laugh and thinking of him brings a smile to my face, we  meet up as often as possible and I must admit although a little cautiously that things seem to be going really well at the moment.  So thats my big news that I've been itching to tell you all for months, lol. So my Birhday has been lovely this year, kids all in bed with me this morning while I opened my pressies and cards and am just chilling out today doing nothing in particular. Yesterday I had flowers delivered from my new man, which made me come over all girly, not something I do very often, lol, but then again I cant recall ever having had flowers like this in the past, sad maybe but very true.  Well thats about all I can think of to say right now, lots more to fill you in on but will once again leave it till another time, hope you all all keeping well, take care, Sam xx

Feeling Anxious
Hearing Razorlight

Hi peeps, I havent posted a propper entry for a while, main reason for that is mood has been really low, although I have been away from OH for over 7 months now he is still able to hold so much control over my life through the kids that its frustrating.  I thought maybe the fact that we had finally escaped his controling ways would mean a fresh start for us all, god how nieve I was. I went to court again at the end of June about residency of the kids, everything was supposed to be settled at this hearing, needless to say it wasn't, OH decided that he was going to demand more time with the kids than they wanted to spend with him and because I wasnt willing to go along with this, whole bloody case has been put back till October now, in the mean time OH gets to spend extended weekends with the kids every other week, I'm not happy with this and most of all the kids are not happy with it, but he is like the cat that got the cream, I swear to god where he's concerned it's not whats in the kids best interests that concerns him it's still about trying to get one over on me.  Anyway due to all the crap thats been going on with OH, which is far too much to go into here I have been off work on the sick due to stress for the last 5 weeks, given the job that I do, I dont think it's fair to try to help other people through their own tough times when I hardly feel able to get through my own life day by day. Although this entry may sound a little down I want to reassure everyone that I'm still the same old tough cookie I've always been and I'm not going to let OH grind me down, so will try to get back and update on a more positive note asap, take care all, Sam xx

Feeling Loopy

Just wanted to put on a few pics from today, havent got any of actual ceremony as cameras were of course banned in Saint Davids Hall where it was taking place, but these are some of me afterwards, looking ever so slightly relieved that it was all over, lol. It seemed a little strange having graduation ceremony today, as many of us who attended today actually graduated last September and have  been working in our chosen professions for almost a year, but never mind was nice to have all the officialdom  and pomp and ceremony even if looking a little like a prat was compulsory, lol.  Will update at a later date all thats been going on in Sams world, but for today I hope you like the pics, Sam xx

Feeling Chillin'
Hearing Razorlight Hi peeps,hope this finds you all well, havent updated for a while, seem to spend all my time chasing my tail lately.  Seem to have very little me time, have to remind myself sometimes what life is about outside of work and being mum, not that I'm complaining about either.  Have to go back to court next week about the kids, have been informed that the recommendation is going to be that I get granted residency and allow reasonable access to ex OH, well how am I supposed to work out reasonable with him, as most of you know he hasnt got a reasonable bone in his body.  His latest low trick is to put the matrimonial home up for sale, he always kept the mortgage in his name so when I moved out with the girls it gave him the perfect opourtunity to try to cash in on it.  6 months ago I may have been silly enough to have been happy to walk away, but truth of the matter is I was just glad to get out of a destructive relationship with my sanity intact, well ish, lol.  I'm now a changed person, all for the better I feel, changed may actually be the wrong way to put it, I'm now the person I used to be prior to having my soul destroyed by a control freak of an OH.  Oh gosh that sounds so dramatic, lol, but cant think of any other way to describe the change in me over the 12 years that I was with him, good thing is a lot of the old me is already back and in only 6 months so plenty of positive mental attitude for the future.  Anyway I have instructed solicitor to put a stop on the sale of the house until such time as financial matters are sorted in court, not sure if  ex OH is aware of this but he soon will be, would love to be a fly on the wall when he gets that news, lol.  I've been informed by the youngest girls that ex OH has a new pet name for me, do I hear you say oh how sweet, lol, he now lovingly refers to me as the wicked witch, 1 out of 10 for originallity there I think, am gutted he couldnt come up with something a little more colourfull, needless to say he has a few which probably don't get used in front of the girls.  On another subject, I have my graduation ceremony coming up on the 11th July, Cap and Gown buisness, so will have to get a few pics taken of that and post them here give you all a good laugh, lol. dont think theres much more to say at the moment, so bye for now, goodnight godbless, Sam xx

Feeling Happy
Hearing Razorlight

Hello peeps, hope this entry finds you all well, my brood and I are fine and dandy, cant believe we have been in this house for almost 6 months now, on the one hand it seems like it's passed so quickly, yet on the flip side I feel like it's been so much longer, so much has happened and my life has changed so much and all for the better.  Work is ticking over nicely, am on my second week of nights this week, so dont have to be in work till Thursday night now, yay, gives me time to get on and catch up with all the things that need doing around here.  Kids are settled into their school and have made friends with other local kids so are out playing now and enjoying living here.  Ex OH is still playing up, but lets be honest, I have come to expect nothing more from him, you cant educate pork,  as my gran used to say, so no point in trying to talk to him like a reasonable human being, just have to leave things to the good judgement of the courts.  Have to go back to court on 25th of this month about residency of the younger 3 girls, he spends his contact time with them telling them that if they end up living with me then I wont let him see them untill they are 18, how he can tell them that and expect them to believe him when I've been the one taking and collecting them for his weekly contact for the last 3 months is beyond me. but not going to dwell too long on it, isn't worth the brain power required to try to work him out, if I couldnt do it in all the years we were together what hope do I have now, besides which, I dont care, not my problem anymore, hehe. 

I just realised I havent mentioned my not smoking, well, to date I have been a non smoker for 4 weeks, have been putting the money aside that I would have spent on cigarettes and am shocked to realise by seeing the actual cash just how much money I have set light to over almost 30 years of  smoking. But not time to dwell on the past, time to move forward and look to the future, with a positive mental attitude, lol.  Will have to come back later and finish updating, have just got a phone call off my eldest daughter, she wants taxi ing around so best go get her, no rest for the wicked, lol.  catch you all later, take care, Sam xx
