A slow day in the Groves household

Well rain was promised for today and when it arrived it came in an absolute torrent and at one time I thought the swimming pool might overflow. I should have taken a photo although all you could see was very little as it was so heavy and reminded us of the rain in typhoons in Asia.
We had planned a day in as Noel had developed a tummy problem possible form the mushroom from Saturday evening and/or something else, the problem is I cannot always tell what has caused the usual issues with the result that some considerable time was spent in the smallest room in the house. I am thinking of moving the TV in there to help the time pass by. Oh well it could always be worse and usually clears up after a couple of days so Tuesday will also be a quiet day.

Jennifer did some more of her embroidery and Noel continued reading his book which will be finished within the next two days at the current rate of reading. In the meantime one is watching with considerable amusement the fun and games of American Politics. The Anti Trump party ( previously known as the Democratic Party) have now decided that they will not get the result they want from the Muller report which will no doubt, after two plus years of investigation, will prove absolutely nothing except how you can waste taxpayers money and so they have given that up and starting a new approach by looking for abuse of power, perhaps they should be looking at the Clintons?
I remember reading a story prior to the US elections that the Democrats felt in order to win they should help promote the candidate less likely to succeed who’s ,name by the way, was Trump as all they did by name calling etc was to promote Mr Trump and of course he got elected. They still cant believe they lost after two and half  years and so have now started a new approach. However to me they seem to be making the same mistake again by trying to get Trump and so all they do is ensure his name is in the papers every day and over time the Democratic voters will reason that they will lose and vote again for Mr Trump.
After many years in business which we wanted to grow we did not go out in to the wider world and slag off our competitors as means to grow as it does not work as you need to have services, and policies for politicians, to help improve your business growth. They also have a new female member of the house which they seem to have marked as a future President by the name of Alexandria Ocasia-Cortez and my god if you think Trump is bad look at this lady. She is promoting the Green Deal which enforces NO cars, aeroplanes in America and free schooling and healthcare and an increase in family support, there is one small problem she has not explained how it will be funded. Also all and I mean ALL houses and building in the USA must be retrofitted with better insulation and more eco friendly, and all of this to take place within ten years or the pollution will take over the world, didn't they say that in the 1990’s???. I think they people with white coats should pay her a visit.
Mind you the UK politicians are continuing to not only screw each other but the country as well over Brexit and now there is a planned march from Sunderland to the Houses of Parliament to protest at the Government failing to honour the people verdict. In the meant Mr Macron the French Idiot has lost the plot entirely, his country is in disarray and he is blaming the Brits, perhaps we should invade again.  Oh well let the fun and games continue whilst we enjoy the sun.
