Thanks Max! I Love ‘..knits up the ravelled sleeve of care’ With regard to your thoughts On social media in an earlier Post, I think there needs to Be some in-depth discussion Right across the board and Probably some serious curtailing of the big corps’ Power and do they need to Be broken up? The stuff Of dreams I suspect. The advent of the factory Has led us here to this Big world factory. Craft was better? Factory farmed populations Now. Pre-agrarian daydreams.
