The Hinge - 'The Village Postman' (1968)

This song is about a Postman who is nearly sixty and is getting ready to retire on a cold, dark spring morning. If you are having sleep issues, try singing along... This song from 1968 is worth a listen, perhaps a re-release? These songs are a product of that era when life was better than today. In 1968, we still had the GPO General Post Office that provided all British communications, perhaps not so technically superior, but faster and cheaper than in 2023.

This nostalgic song was released in 1968; I was two years old, but I remember a few vague things. The point about music is it takes you on a journey when you hear a tune. It takes you back to a place you have never been but seen through rose-tinted spectacles, an imaginary utopia that never was.

The past and the future meet via the present day.

UK AT BREAKING POINT

 We are at a point in history like no other since the seventies. Today we are living out a replay of late seventies Britain. The Winter of Discontent with a topping of 1914 and 1938 sprinkled on top.  The war is on every street, on our shores and on beaches.  An army of sleepers invades GB, no matter where they are from. Their colour or race shouldn't be the issue.

Unless people need help coming from Turkey after several earthquakes hit their country or a war-torn region, wherever there is some actual war going on, we should not be accepting these people because this island is over-subscribed. 

We used to have a population of between 48-54 million citizens. In 2023 68 million, it rises daily. 

The NHS is politically driven, politically correct and ideologically engaged in a scheme of eugenics, euthanasia and genocide. They are on strike to protect us, protect us from their actions? 

Our Government and current PM are running a surplus. I read earlier.

Then we have Mayor Khan, offering free meals to every child because their parents spend all the food budget on ULEZ, paying £12.50 per day.

Scotland now searches for a new First Minister expectations are low because we will get a poorer version of Rishi that will damage Scotland.
