I think I might be becoming a curmudgeon. I just signed a petition saying that it was wrong to label Icelanders as terrorists. As far as I can remember they’re very nice and friendly and have lots of good chess players.

This makes the second one in the last year or so, the last one I signed was against TV licencing. After one too many obnoxious letters trying to scare me into paying for something I don’t use, I figured it was time to take a stand.

To me it stands to reason that the BBC should be paying its own way in the World without having UK citizens railroaded into coughing up money to keep them going. And after the recent scandal involving Messrs. Ross and Brand there may be more people who are coming to this conclusion.

I haven’t had any further demands of late which makes me wonder if I’ve been identified as a troublemaker on some database or other and they’ve decided not to rattle my cage any further. I certainly hope so.
