If the world is broken, then where better to come to get it fixed than West Sussex?  Apparently the G20 summit next week is being held less than 10km from my house. Thinking about the logistics, whether the world leaders fly into Gatwick or Heathrow they are still likely to be travelling to the hotel via the M23 and so will pass within about 100 metres of this place. I’d better put the kettle on.
Horsham is no better or worse a location then other places for an international summit, but by the law of averages this sort of thing tends to happen somewhere else so it all feels a bit weird. Fortunately it is just far enough away that we are not likely to have police checkpoints at the end of our road.

Looks like that family cycle ride through Cowfold next weekend is out of the question…
Obviously, the Global Master Puppeteers see West Sussex as a ‘safe haven’ – a county which is full of their Local Master Puppets.

Or maybe it is just handy for the airport…

Or maybe flying pigs also need a place to land (“News in brief – Sussex”, Crawley Observer, March 11 2009 – Page 18).
Most delegates will be arriving by helicopter, if I am reading ‘Male On Sinday On-line’ correctly.
Airports are for the plebs 😉
