Shake and Pop
Apologies again for the lack of blogging recently. I have managed to find myself a job, working for the NHS. It's nothing more than photocopying and filing, but the girls in the office are fabulous, and have made me feel very welcome. It has meant, however, that I arrive home rather late feeling tired and ratty. My self-proclaimed geniality goes out of the window, and I piss off everyone in the house by snapping at them for no good reason. I've got another fifty more years of working full time! If I cannot handle two days without going over the edge, my life is in trouble.
I also haven't caught up with much of the news lately, for much the same reasons. Charles Clarke's comments are making the anti-Blair lobby very excited, but surely it's not as significant as all that? Sacked mediocre ex-minister is bitter. So I'll look round for a REAL story to write about when I have the chance!
For now, read Michael Atherton (for it is he) on Norman Geras's blog, a great merging of my sporting and political worlds. Oliver Kamm has a perceptive piece on Trident, Iain Dale asks who screwed up Britain, and David Tate links to an amusing cartoon in Harry's Place.
