Poem
Time Machine I sometimes wonder about migration, is there a moment when doors are closed and the bus leaves the station Sorry folks, the country is full. One of the reasons people from Pakistan and there about try to enter Britain is caused by the BBC talking- up England making it sound like a place of milk and honey. In 1947, the BBC had regularly sent to Norway but I can't say anyone wanted to go there; as my Uncle Olav “The British working class have always been poor.” The Russian radio was in on the act telling sweet stories of a little girl lost on the tundra but saved by a heroic Russian soldier who waded out in an ice-cold river to save the girl who sat on an ice-floe. There was at the time, sympathy for the Russians they had sent the Germans packing and helped end the war But politics was changing the Russian station became full of interference and eventually closed down. It was a strange time in the forties, Norway traded with Russia and even went on holiday there The Russians bought the herring and wood products and shared coal mines on the Svalbard. To be a car owner in Norway was a rarity, but suddenly The country was swamped with thousands of Russian-made Fiat cars, and the heart of equality skipped a beat. There was a man who was well-liked but was caught spying for Russia he said it was because he believed in the system and tried to help. After years of jail time, where he wrote self-serving books he was freed, but the Russia he professed to love had changed; he went to Moscow and started a business, and became a millionaire by working hard. We know the truth, but it is too tedious to talk about it One thing is sure, if you want to open a business it is not enough to make a call saying you are selling leather shoes you have to have some information on the friends who helps you succeed. PS What I remember has no date because when you are old all appears to be yesteryear. Nowadays Norway is a rich nation, safely embedded in the U.S. interest sphere It might just as well be called an American state, the rumors have it the CIA is conducting its secret operations from Norwegian soil. With this, I will say no more as my old-age pension is paid by the Norwegian state.
