The story is told about a woman on a roulette table who was told by a man behind her back: 'Bet your age.' Wanting to impress him, she put her bet on number 21. When the number 30 came up as the winning number, she collapsed. Why? Because 30 was her real age. —————- In today's Gospel (Matthew 13:24-43), Jesus tells us the parable of the wheat and the weeds. We can choose to be good or to be bad in this world, to be truthful or to lie, but there will be a final reckoning in the end. The good will be rewarded, and the bad will be punished.

Is there no end to this government's determination to make life in Britain worse?  As the Guardian reports: Wifi for train passengers in England may be axed as the government seeks to cut costs. The move is being pushed by the Department for Transport in order to cut costs as it looks to "reform all aspects of the railway" and provide "value for money". This story comes from the latest edition of Christian Wolmar's Calling All Stations podcast. Behind this penny pinching lies the fact that privatisation left Britain's railways working under a horribly complex system that leaks public money at every join.
