Brahms 2nd Piano…
This page, simply for my own benefit, as indeed the whole previous saga has been, my own private "Coronation Street", if you like. Realize there is so much missing… that I should start again… again, from the time I first discovered Romania... more has happened to me of significance in these years than any other period of my long existence... eclipsing the Australian years… The end of those culminated here, in Bucuresti last Xmas, a strange, unforeseeable twist, with the appearance of my son and grandchild... an event after, after what?? half a century.. My biggest anticlimax ...
There is also the Laura affair... always considered her just another female face… she now 18 years old … a woman in every respect, a woman to be reckoned with.. This has gone on, almost in the sidelines.
Cynthia has shoved this juxtaposition together complete "with pictures" in her deeply determined, deeply methodical way... She, who ignores my sleeping with Laura, when here, which is quite often... but steps even further… more "extreme" as the man said.. Cyn having now found a fifteen year old, who's mother appealed to the World for help via the media, saying she has no money (not uncommon) would someone please help… take her eldest daughter and educate her… give her some hope… (She does have three others to support.. no man) We have her here with us, now. Laura... we ….. look upon her as another challenge, at this moment, a simple country girl..
..They have all relatively been that, have all done rather well on my so limited recourses and my prodding. Cyn always maintains I should have been paid in some way for my efforts in resurrecting these people, this flotsam…but I was hardly paid in Townsend house, all along realizing I did it as I have done everything else in my existence.. because I wanted to ..the "how much?" factor never really considered
A certain cynicism from those, the majority, who have never stuck their necks out, those who have never done the smallest thing other than consider themselves.. My probable ultimate summing up of this Planet being.. a sad one …
As always reiterated throughout this long, so long narrative .. money and sex the only motivation of the 21st Century…"The only Gods," as someone remarked. Greed. Avarice, Contempt, paramount.. running relentlessly, remorselessly.. through all the " human beings" who are anything on Planet Earth…
Of the lower echelons, on the mountains, the snow covered plains of the Balkans.. there remains a humanity, a humility, the people of the West have no inclination of… have no wish, no desire, to know of… the suffering, the stark unrelenting poverty.. where mothers have to give their daughters away…

Twin Towers (2) ……Five months and four days after
Friday, February 15, 2002…….8:38 AM
A most glorious, sunny morning. Peace stretches tight over Bucuresti.
The shouting, posing, gesticulating, the billions of mostly repetitious, mostly meaningless words, the endless armies of the night marching nowhere, the billions of dollars, all thrown, supposedly, after the so elusive Uncle Ben Laden, his responsibility for our troubles, his audacious contempt for America. This charged atmosphere somewhat died away, the Planet slowly sinking back into its miasmal mist of poverty, despair, disintegration of people, their hopes, their fears, the infinite plethora of wars in Africa, Jews verses Palestinians, the so called ‘Olympics”, the endless scenario of figures on Wall Street, all backed by a veiled, immutable, constant, threat.
“If we all are not vigilant, if we do not conform, not accept that ………
“Justice is the will of the stronger” then, most certainly, Uncle Ben will decidedly get us again…if we could but just find him, if we knew precisely whom he was. “
Only ‘President Bush’, he only, can save us ... A wonderful diversion for him, a get out for a deeply declining economy, as the Lewinsky affair with Clinton, leaving him to devise the bombing of Yugoslavia as his particular diversion. This, now having repercussions with Milosevic on trial in the Hague, people with the slightest interest, questioning the validly of Bush, his puppets and his dollars, to put the man on trial.
Hiroshima and the indiscriminate civilian bombing of Belgrade? Which particular villains were at the bottom of that ? A question which could quite reasonably be asked……… No prizes for the right answer.
For what it is worth now, it should be mentioned that Yugoslavia fought against the Germans 39-45… Quite easy to see why the Americans are becoming universally hated as arrogant aggressors, more, and more falling into domination by Jews, their philosophy, their harsh terms for the Philistines.
The Russians still remain very quiet, unobtrusive. Quiet flows the Don.
Only visible, Chechnya and some pressure on Moldavia, that the population learn Russian. Rather interesting to know Russian real plans, aspirations, the Balkans, Afghanistan, they all so hinged on Russian borders, little more than pawns in this deadly game of power poker.
(Just a couple of years ago, Lebed, one of the hawks in the Russian hierarchy, said he could be in Bucuresti in six hours……… hardly a social call)
February 25, 2002… Ford Motor company Dagenham England is closing its’ 700acre site after seventy years, the rot firmly established, simply needs the appearance of another Hitler?….)

Sunday, January 13, 2002
Today, Sunday, January 13, 2002..] Ford motor company has thrown into the “Pool of Unemployment” 35.000 people. Add this and a few thousand more to the original million since 11th September… what do you get..?
Good question…
A certain amount of satisfaction on my part and one or two others, no doubt, of forecasting what has materialized.
Everything I have suggested over the last thirty years has occurred in one form or the other, but the 11th far exceeded my imagination.
Such a dramatic/meticulous/stupendous/ piece of theatre… such a blow to the established elite.. Beyond Pearl Harbour, beyond D day, beyond any event in modern history, something everyone on this Planet could see within a few moments of happening, nothing else has been displayed with such breathless graphics .The scuttling of the Graf Spee was a wonderful event…only a verbal. Planes crashing into those towers must be the visual event of all time and the plane deliberately driven onto the unspeakable… the Pentagon... is quite clearly the biggest blow the U.S.A. has ever had to suffer .
From Sept the 11th onwards the World has become a different place. The “Enemy is within…” It has been within for the last 40 years, wrote the same words long ago. Anyone who said this then/now was either imprisoned as a racist, or completely ignored… Now, a different scenario.
The imprisoning of Mr. Milosevic conclusively proves the Americans specifically, NATO and those responsible for the “Race relations industry”, the “Human rights industry” had it quite wrong, yet again, or, more pointedly, another convenient distraction for the masses to watch.. a get out for Clinton in the Lewinsky affair… conceivably.
History has shown the endless struggle in the Balkans against Islam, Mr. Milosevic tried to stem the creeping tide. In view of events, rather embarrassing for the West, it could be thought... putting him in prison.
The Russians (those vast masses of people in the East that the West not quite never mentions) must be smiling, at this sudden blow/threat/realization/awakening… by so called “Western Civilization” also having mentioned during the savage attack on Yugoslavia, that the West and the Muslims would eventually fight it out ….The Russians will confront the winner…
It could be imagined they are doing now, as they did with Hitler… preparing in their Far Eastern Provinces…
What man has ever marched further than Moscow?

My Lost Horizon
It is 4.p.m on a Saturday evening in February.. Odd to think of these men now starting the shift through the night as I did for so very many years, odd to think I have escaped that drudgery, that penalty.. that I am sitting here so very far away ..so very far away from the clamour of Shaftsbury Avenue, the belching fumes of the endless Oxford Street busses .. Kings Road on a Saturday evening, every one in a “frightful hurry” .
Immaculate "Sloane Rangers" armed with mobile phones, Channel perfume and a soft, deceptive smile. Endless gentle lies in reply to endless calls. I sit, expressionless. No need to watch them in the mirror, not the slightest interest, no way put out by their quick changes of destination, their urgency.. their complete matter of factness…
No, my “Lost Horizon" achieved….But time has passed ..so long ago, would never have known where Romania was or of its existence.. Heard of the Balkans, remember how they featured in the newspapers during the war.. Hitler as others, became rather bogged down by them.
Romania, foretold in my existence. When I was nine my father insisted I play the "Blue Danube" to perfection on the piano.
Talking to a old lady some time ago, very pleasant old lady, 86 years , all her faculties firing. She came around to asking how I found Romania, or how it found me. My answer being I saw the film.. as a child in the then so splendid “Regent” picture house at the top of Well Street.. “Lost Horizon”… Said I could not recall who was in the film, she immediately came up with “Ronald Coleman” such is her brain. How, the story went, they were all in a plane lost over some high mountains in the snow, crash landing in a strange land .. I flew over the Carpathians in the snow and landed in this strange country.. fifty years behind the times, still having its own culture, its own ways, almost a gentleness after the abrasions and greed of the West.
Found it wonderfully refreshing, a sense of disbelief over the simplest things long swept away in England by the impact of the aliens.
