Welcome
This blog is a personal record of a journey of discovery and learning that my partner and I are embarking on.
For to many years we have kept our nose to the grindstone and ignored what is going on in the world around us. Two recent events have changed that for us.
- The recent financial events that seem to have come about since no one in the financial world really understood what was going on and it seems didn’t really want to understand as long as it all kept growing.
- Coming across the videos on Youtube of a lecture by Dr Albert Bartlett (thanks Bertie for forwarding that link to me!)
I doubt that two people writing a blog can change much by themselves. But if each of us can convince two other people and each of those two more and so on then as Dr Bartlett explains very simply and convincingly in his lecture, we can change the world.
We welcome comments from all, positive and negative, and will try to keep the comments system open to all but the problem of SPAM may make this difficult.
So welcome and I hope that we can make this blog at least a little bit interesting for others to read.

I respect that you have both chosen to take initiative! The worst thing we can do is sit back or sit in. A journey begins with a step.
Just bookmarked your site. Look forward to reading the articles here.
All the best.

Thanks for the encouraging remarks. We will do our best to help understand what is happening to our world.
It is as much a learning experience for us as a resource for others. Writing about things is a great way to organise your thoughts and explore ideas.
