An easy 50 minute run, pieced together with various detours around the park. Not as pleasing as a simple loop, but still almost all across fields and through woodland.
Yesterday was a big demonstration against public spending cuts. This isn’t just whining about the inevitable – it’s justifiable outrage at the billions of pounds of unpaid taxes which aren’t being pursued whilst the government follows its agenda of privatising as much of the public sector as it can, crudely disguised as "getting out of the mess left by the previous Labour government".
Meanwhile the situation in Japan seems no better. Reliable information seems hard to find, especially in the UK media, but for the people of Japan it must be a complete nightmare.
Yesterday was also Earth Hour - an easy but still impressive display of solidarity about energy concerns, although getting nowhere near solving the nuclear vs fossil fuels debate as the global population and it's energy demand keep rising.
