So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

I am complete. I have become grumpy old man. Bureaucracy gone mad, these old people (older than me) in Bristol have happily resided in their pre-fabricated houses for the past 60 years and now the Council wants to knock down their homes and put them into some soulless, brand spanking new apartment and the old sods don't want to go, because they like them and they like their communities and why can't the council just fuck off and leave them alone. Or perhaps they are looking forward to a bumper payday on account of having sold the land to private developers!Having lived in prefab from age 2 until aged 4, I believe we were only to happy to leave, but then I wasn't so attached to it.
