Back last August, we got 2 ducks and a drake, now 7 months later we have 29!
Were at the point of taking eggs away now, because they are slowly taking over the place and the food bills going up, and in a dry summer, we could run out of good pasture (they eat clover, young grass, etc)
This means we are now moving on from raising ducks to eating them as well, which is quite a different mindset to have.
It helps that muscovies aren’t a duck you can grow fond of -they don’t like been handled at all, but will always follow you around for food.
So it’s also important to note we are rather impersonel with them -these aren’t pets and they don’t have names (apart from the original three)
ANZAC day is when New Zealand and Australia commerate those soldiers who served in the armed forces, but did not return.
I never went to the dawn service at 6AM this year, (someone needed to feed the ducks, geese, etc), So I went to the later service at 11AM.
It never feels as good as the earlier service, I think it’s something to do with been there before dawn, which only draws out the seriously committed ones, amongst us on a cold autumn morning.
The service was well organised with various speakers talking on behalf of various politicians and Government officials. The only odd speech was from the Govenor-General which had a political statement about the Ukraine war of all things.
This book very comprehensively challenges some well established sciences, but does have references and statistics to support it’s arguments.
It requires an indepth understanding about electricity and radiowaves to understand the issues and why they are of concern, which is partly why the subject is a bit off-piste, and you sometimes feel like your going down some rabbit holes.
It’s initially easy to dismiss the books credibility, but the supporting statistics are quite damning.
To understand what this books driving at, its nessessary to clear up some misconceptions. We are largely electrical in nature as are animals. Your heart muscles get electrical signals from your brain, as does every other muscle in your body.
The book starts off with the history of electricity and our perception of it.
The last few hundred years have seen the introduction of the telegraph system in the wild west (it used the ground as a return path), followed by powerful radio transmitters during WW1, and later on to massive radar systems to keep those nasty Russians out during the cold war, using a chain of massive early warning radar systems (LORAN-C, p307).

Generally speaking, each new technology introduced used a different range of frequencies transmitted at very high power to get any range. These interfere with the metabolism of all life exposed to it. The closer you are to the transmitter, the bigger the problems become. The good news is our bodies tend to adapt after a while.
Several chapters cover a rise of Diabetes, Heart problems, and some cancers, and then shows a correlation with new technologies been introduced which caused an increase. The book proves it’s assertions via historical data (mostly in the USA).
For example, the book makes the argument that the Spanish flu in 1918 was caused by the US navy’s new largely experimental radio stations for communications with ships. (p102)
The current debate about 5G towers and their possible dangers is one of those highlighted. It’s notable that the only regulations regarding 5G are written by the phone companies themselves.
The book also points out a paradox, we live longer as a result of electricity, but we are more likely to became sick because of it. The books thoery is that electrical interference has effectively slowed our ability to process oxygen and add it to to our blood, effectively slowing down our metabolism.
The book is a lot to take in, and to believe it’s conclusions, means admitting you have been poisoning yourself unintentionally all this time.
I guess in the end, it’s up to you to choose the red pill or the blue pill (cue, The Matrix) -Your call
In a world where so much seems broken, it’s important to take the time to remember to celebrate the positives in our lives.
When we take the time to notice the good stuff, we automatically build resilience – because a positive state of mind means that we are not so easily put into a state of fear and therefore not so easily controlled.
If we use tough times as motivation to make positive change in ourselves and the way we live our lives, we can move towards a better future.
