Log Blog

I love it ! I love what Westerwitch has achieved here.

I love it that so many of us have taken our power back. Country Living’s response to its dodgy competition displays a curious understanding of its readers ; on that’s all right then, we are supposed to say, tugging our forelocks, oh yes bring it on : a blogger splash on the old home page.

How easy that would be to win ! But you and I , we could no more win that, than renew our subscriptions. For living as we do, in the country, and writing about real country living, we find ourselves at a disadvantage.

The lid has been lifted, the Emperor stands exposed as a townie’s dream. We knew it all along, deep down. But what anger has been released !

These feelings, I sugest, run even deeper than the hole Country Living are presently digging themselves a bit deep into.

For we have had just enough in this country of spin, deceipt, being manipulated by big vested interest and the vacant lure of celebrity status. Honestly , from the chance to be an honest columnist to the possibility of a mention on a website , as long as you totally, utterly sell-out.

PurpleCoo is that rare thing in today’s mega -conservative world , a genuine people’s movement of the first order.

PC for PM I say and power to the mower as CountryMousie so wisely concluded yesterday.
