Oakham West End Disgrace! ?

Rutland County Councillors often refer to this end of town as a disgrace
Last night a Oakham Town Councillor also expressed this view

the only disgrace I can see is the price of the petrol


Is it a disgrace the printers was not open today?



It can not be Dr China they have long since removed
window notices claiming to cure erectile dysfunction
and premature ejaculation


The White Lion
or
The Baptist Church?

?

?



I am told Rutland County Council
has spent £50,000 on a report
on how to improve this end of town

I say this Oakham leave it as it is!




I find this is a big disgrace

Séraphine (2008)


1914, Wilhelm Uhde, a famous German art collector, rents an apartment in the town of Senlis, forty kilometers away from Paris, in order to write and to take a rest from the hectic life he has been living in the capital. The cleaning lady is a rather rough-and-ready forty-year-old woman who is the laughing stock of others. One day, Wilhelm who has been invited by his landlady, notices a small painting lying about in her living room. He is stunned to learn that the artist is no other than Séraphine

A Serious Man



Bloomington, Minnesota, 1967: Jewish physics lecturer Larry Gopnik is a serious and a very put-upon man. His daughter is stealing from him to save up for a nose job,his pot-head son,who gets stoned at his own bar-mitzvah,only wants him round to fix the T.V. aerial and his useless brother Arthur is an unwelcome house guest. But both Arthur and Larry get turfed out into a motel when Larry's wife Judy,who wants a divorce, moves her lover,Sy, into the house and even after Sy's death in a car crash they are still there. With lawyers' bills mounting for his divorce, Arthur's criminal court appearances and a land feud with a neighbour Larry is tempted to take the bribe offered by a Korean student to give him an illegal exam pass mark. And the rabbis he visits for advice only dole out platitudes.Still God moves in mysterious  and not always pleasant  ways,as Larry and his family will find out.
