strange publicity tactics.

Blog Blogging animated GIFWell - I do my best, and I don't really think it sucks, but I had a strange experience recently.
I received a mail from something which will remain A. Nony. Mouse claiming to represent his client who shall also remain A. Nony. Mouse!
This client, a bank, had requested that a link to his Bank be removed from an article on my blog.  Since I make a point of promising to review any requests of this nature, I checked through, which took me quite some time and didn't please me
Argue Arguing animated GIF but I finally found the link, which had come, in fact, from the programme 'Zemanta' which searches subjects and photos as you type, and they are inserted as above, in blue or orange......OK - no problem, I simply took the link off, but WHY should a well known Bank have an agent who occupies himself uniquely with little known blogs like mine? All very strange particularly since 'Wikipaedia' shows a link and a page about this bank!
OK - so I'm happy to have had 40,000 visitors, but HAD I earned any money, I would certainly NOT have put it in said Bank! 
Another strange thing recently was the fact that although I have a 'g-mail' account which keeps (normally) 'spam' out of the inboxSpam Today animated GIFI twice received something telling me $600,000 was mine....! 
Of course you never open such mails, but it was strange that they were in the inbox! 
Maybe I was worth $600,000 and had lost my chance! 
On the other hand, maybe I was lucky and don't have to buy a new pc!

When London was a village (2)

One of London's 'Commons' Carrying on with my little series about London, a City but also very much a collection of villages which I enjoyed living in, working in, getting married in, and finally "'leavin'", I just wanted to touch on those places which London has so many of......'The Commons' - rather akin to Public Parks, but immense in size and in every 'village'.... A bit of their history is here: http://www.graftingardeners.co.uk/history-londons-commons/ and some are used by the well known  London Buses. Some are criss-crossed by main roads, some have public golf courses, some have tennis courts, both in concrete and in grass.... The special thing about these 'Commons' is their size....They are immense. In pure ground value they must be worth billions of billions of pounds sterling, and yet there is rarely any attack made on their status. It is rather astounding! Just for the record, there is another, ...
