An interview worth watching.

I'm a bit late getting this out tonight. It's fascinating watching five hedgehogs running about on the garden.
I have been following UK Column for a few years now This is the news channel that you can rely on for what is really going on in the world. They have recently put out this interview with Jonathan Marshall. Here is a little bit about him taken from his web site.

Jonathan Marshall has been a professional falconer and horse trainer since 1985. He has performed at some of the largest outdoor events in the world and has entertained audiences of up to tens of thousands at a time. His Free Spirits live experience is totally unique and includes stunning horses and falcons which work together in a carefully choreographed performance. 

As a motivational speaker and story teller Jonathan is considered a master. He can hold the attention of any crowd and have them rolling with laughter one minute and crying with emotion in the next. In recent years it became increasingly obvious that it was Jonathan's ability as a communicator that was his gift and by using his horses and falcons he continues to spread his powerful message at his live performances and personal appearances.


After a spectacularly well received UK Column interview in April 2025 (https://www.ukcolumn.org/video/thinki...) Jonathan Marshall is back.
In another riveting conversation with Charles Malet, Jonathan discusses the influences pushing young people toward a life of introspective compliance and the danger that poses.
Jonathan is a member of the wide awake club, know what I mean. He has sussed it all out. A smashing interview that gives me some hope that it will all come right in the end. 

After spending the morning sewing, I wanted to get the arty project finished, I did a dash to Aldi this afternoon. They shut at 4pm on a Sunday. I made time to do a litter pick. I parked on the Industrial Estate, and went down the long back alley. Frustrating to see litter trapped behind an eight foot high fence with no access to get it out. 
I got halfway down there and my bag was full, so I decided to walk right to the very end of it, to see how much litter there was, and where it came out at the other end. Oh my, lots and lots and lots of litter and fly tipping. What an awful mess. It's going to be too much for me to tidy up. I will keep checking my Industrial Estates. Just one bag today. 
 
Now I have to go and get Mayze in. She would stay out there all night if I let her. 
Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip.   ilona

    1. Jonathan is also an artist. He paints pictures and writes music. A multi talented guy, who has a common sense head on his shoulders. Pretty darn good to look at as well.

    2. Mayze is an indoor cat, always has been. Has access to the garden. I want her in at night.

  2. well Ilona , I know your heart is in the right place but I can't help thinking you are flogging a dead horse with all the terrible amount of litter you are collecting. This is surely not local peoples rubbish. Its the council's job to clear it up. Please don't put yourself in any danger. Goodness knows what is in those hedge bottoms. Put your safety first. xx
