I must thank my good friend Manuwant for the title of this post. His blog post on "A Freedom Song Gone Wrong" can be read here.
Today is Bapu's 139th birthday - but there is NO PARTY!
Today is a DRY DAY!
Reminds me of when I was a student in London. It was a bright sunny morning and I was walking along the Thames when the thirst hit and I trooped into a pub.
The bartender did not wait for my order.
On seeing me he immediately handed over a pint of beer, saying, "This is on the house."
I quickly took a sip - and then asked what the occasion was.
He said it was the Queen Mum's birthday.
And the whole country was partying.
It is true, what Manuwant writes:
OUR FREEDOM SONG HAS GONE TERRIBLY WRONG!
We must fight for freedom again.
Freedom from these party poopers.
This is a nice write up, great going sauvik
