Ron’s Thoughts …

I admit to being racist in many of my thoughts but I would like to hear other peoples thoughts regarding the Dancing Girls who perform each time a boundary is scored in IPL Cricket.

They are all white girls.

Surely the Indian ‘Bollywood’ girls should have taken the stage ?

When I marked (scored) a game for the blind bowlers yesterday I commented that neither they nor their Directors ever smiled.

I said that, “Surely they should revel in the occassion.” 

A friend, older and wiser than me, said, ” They need to concentrate far more than you and I. They cannot see when we are smiling.”

I apologise for my insensitivity.

Some months ago I promised to report back about the merits of growing tomatoes in upside-down, elevated buckets.

It does not work.

The plants instinctively bend around to face upwards.

Then, on hot days, the buckets soak up the heat of the sun and the plants wither.

“Good try, but no Cigar”
