You have to laugh. The BBC's drive today is to blame Boris for not leaving on time despite the blindingly obvious reality. You could not make it up.

There is always a balance about these things, if the rock is now closed does that also apply to the aboriginal people as well if so fair enough.

Yes, that's true. On a slightly different and sombre note I am looking at a guided tour of Europe for next year which also includes an optional visit to Auschwitz. Normally I am a decisive person but I have been wrestling with this one. I want to go to pay my respect but part of me feels uncomfortable at this type of tourism. I don't know the answer.
