The Silent Blog

An Upside Down World

By and large, the Two Paddocks blog has been a cheerful affair over the years; a little light reading, and about as substantial as a feather.

This year however, 2011, the TP Blogger has started in this vein on several occasions, but almost immediately something of such startling drama or horror has happened in the world, stopping any such light heartedness in its tracks.

Revolution, civil war, earthquakes, tsunamis, chaos and carnage. The world is turning upside down.

We will be cheerful again one day, of that we are certain.

But in the meantime, in these dark days, our hearts and kindest thoughts go out to our friends, our families, the people of Christchurch, of Japan, and of Libya.

We apologize for this Silent Blog, but we are, quite simply, aghast.
