Watermarks

It may be the case that  Thursday 22nd January transpires to be a day of great significance.

It was the day that the ECB (European Central Bank) announced it's plan to dilute the value of money by "creating" 1.1 trillion euros to pump into the economy, in a scam known as quantitative easing (QE). (BBC) We touch on twenty two and eleven often, here.

It was the day that British Prime Minister, David Cameron, visited Scotland, a country some may consider to be the birthplace of new wave freemasonry, given Mother Lodge 0 at Kilwinning.

Dave set out "his" offer for the Scots; more decision making, more powers. Some may recall that these were promised a few days prior to the independence referendum and that some consider they helped "swing" the vote.

Some today are suggesting that Dave's offer is a diluted version of "his" promises. Some are suggesting there may have to be another referendum. Many  know that the anticipated whisky has been "watered" down.

Talk is too, that in aftermath of the forthcoming British general election, the Scottish National Party may be crux in decision making for the United Kingdom... Order from chaos potentially beckons, perhaps a "reborn" Great Britain.

The regular reader may remember my pre-referendum outlandish theory revolving around Scotland being the country blueprint for members of the forthcoming New World Order, a theory which has not yet been obliterated.

In masonry, and fairy tales, 3 is an important number.

Dave Cameron appeared up here three days before poet, haggis quaffer and serial-shagger, Robert Burns' Day. This year it coincides with the Greek general election - something else which may have ramifications for the global economy.

Robert Burns was a freemason. Apparently - I am not too well travelled - there are statues of Burns in abundance overseas. It's surely a wonder how his work, and the gentleman, are so popular.

Thursday was the day that the legal objection to the Scottish Government's state-sponsored guardian for every child was knocked back. The long-term plan is, without doubt, for the state to take "ownership" of youngsters. The long term plan of the objectors is to appeal. Thus, eventually, we may get a slightly "watered down" version, however the framework will be in place. BBC

Burns liked children, he had a dozen of them.

Someone else who allegedly liked children was Leon Brittan. Allegedly he died on Thursday.

The day before, the BBC ran an interesting article noting that "independent scrutiny of death certificates has not been delivered as promised" in the wake of the Dr. Harold Shipman murders.

The whole world in "our" hands

We noted Elvis - The King - Presley's alleged only UK "visit", to Glasgow's Prestwick Airport on 3/3/1960 back in May, whilst Robert Burns pops up fairly recently here given his "masonic" connotations. Probably the most obvious symbol of the ongoing importance to the poet's craftwork was at last year's Olympic relay, when on day 33 the torch snaked back in to Scotland, to leave from the Burns statue in Dumfries on day 34 for a 121 mile journey back south of the border. As noted often, 33's are important, as are double 11's, and 121 is 11 squared. It's also worth noting the solar symbolism, given that the date was 21st June, Prince William's 30th and the sun drenched summer solstice. Fruit for Thought


Today it is reported a "plea" is being considered to rename Prestwick to Robert Burns Prestwick Airport and no, I don't think it is an April Fool although the media this year appear to have concentrated on spoof Scottish independence stories for whatever reason, make up your own mind and bear in mind a forthcoming global society. (BBC)

Also worth highlighting is tennis player and Dunblane massacre survivor, Andy Murray, and his new hotel in  Perthshire. It was purchased from the Eden family and has bedrooms and suites named after famous Scotsman including Robert the Bruce, William Wallace, Sir Alex Feguson, Sir Chris Hoy, and Sir Sean Connery. Maybe there is little else to write about it, but the mail on line closes it's article with a picture of the chess board in the main lounge and captions it as such.

To close, given the references to the number 3, it is worth noting Prince William and Kate's at-long-last photographic appearance on Mother's Day with Baby George, the date 30/3, 8 months and 8 days since we last "officially" saw him.

Also note from  today the criticism of the Government's sell off of Royal Mail; apparently there is anger in some quarters that the shares were priced too low, @ 330p, when offered. BBC

Auld acquaintances

At the turn of the year the BBC published an article - How Auld Lang Syne took over the world.

Within it, we discovered how a "folk  song with words that most people do not know, or fully understand, became one of the world's most popular songs".

Apparently, it is all to do with "Rock star Scottish bard Robert Burns", who wrote the lyrics in 1788, the tune appearing after his death. The article is a wealth of information re the song, for example: Hollywood loves it, it's place in the American Civil War, the first World War,  it's popularity in China, it's popularity in Russia, and that the Dutch utilise it for their football song, We love Orange.

The article neglects to point out that Burns was a freemason, which may well explain his, and his poetry and songs, global popularity. Indeed, Robert has more statues dedicated to him than any other non-religious figure with the exception of Queen Victoria and Christopher Columbus. (Scotland.org) Note that Burns was initiated into the lodge on 4th July. From Robert Burns as a Freeemason:

Freemasonry's influence on Burns's poetry is quite visible. Besides the aforementioned works which specifically deal with the craft, a number of poems have a strong dose of Masonic philosophy and ideals in them....

For Burns, Masonry was everything that the Kirk was not.

(Note that the Kirk is the Church, I touched on both it, and 4th July, at the end of last month - Stage Managed  & Ball Games - in relation to Scotland's occcult importance to the New World Order)

Our attention was  rekindled by the image of John Kerry in Kiev this week.

Fruit for thought

It's Prince William's 30th birthday today and we note that the London 2012 Festival - which runs in tandem with the Olympics - also kicks off. In case you have'nt guessed by now, yes in Scotland: the opening concert to be performed by local youngsters, the Big Noise Orchestra, in Raploch, Stirling, in the shadow of the castle and  imposing William Wallace statue. (BBC)

Meanwhile, the inflatable Stonehenge "bouncy castle" - Sacrilege - which was unveiled at Glasgow Green in April , is also involved in the 2012 Festival opening, today it will appear at Carmarthen Castle in Wales, a place with alleged associations to King Arthur and indeed Merlin (although so has Glasgow , whilst it's Green is the "birthplace" of Glasgow Rangers - One flew over the phoenix nest)

As noted here yesterday, the Olympic torch relay commenced in Dumfries, nicknamed Queen of the South, this morning on day 34, after finishing yesterday in Carlisle. Demelza Powell began proceedings from the Robert Burns statue. The relay will end back down in England, after 121 miles (11 squared), at Windermere, where a giant pyrotechnics show called, Lakes Alive: On the Night Shift, will greet it, again allegedly as part of the London 2012 Festival opening; although perhaps the name has more subtle connotations. 

cheers

Note, apparently the name Demelza derives from St Columb, a "bringer" of "Christianity" to Ireland and Scotland
