politicisation....

So the student are revolting - yes aren't they... boom, boom. But seriously, I am really pleased to see the student up in arms against some of the injustices imposed on them, and Britain, by the firmly Eton/Oxbridge middle-class twits that are forming the backbone(?) of this Thatcherite government.

Government is possible an misnomer, as this would suggest some form of control by this disparate or desperate group of adventurers. One thing's for sure, this crowd don't understand the basics of economics - imagine any business buying 4 billion pounds worth of produce, deciding they don't want it, and then paying someone 200 million pounds to make the problem disappear.

Pretty poor marks for basic arithmetic and business sense..... or will some close friends make a killing (sic)

fire, flood and pestilence...

That was the name of my Christmas... car intercooler almost went on fire (cost a bomb to repair) on Xmas eve at 3.30pm, my neighbours flooded my storage cupboard (several hundred books went to pulp) and I got this dreaded flu-like lurgy that everyone's had (or got).

Having said that, it was a really laid-back Christmas as I didn't have the car to be able to go driving round to family and friends.

And so to work....
