#welovetheNHS
I'm never one to join trends as people generally know, but something like this I find infuriating. There are benefits to the US health system, but then overall I think the NHS wins hands down. If I wake up and feel unwell, I can call the doctor at 8.30am, have an appointment by 9am and have a diagnosis/prescription by 9.15am. I think there is a ( Read more... ) -

I woke up stupidly early today. Its just turning 6am and I'm trying to consider whether its worthwhile getting ready for work. This is the beginning to a serious "I can't be bothered" day. Anyone care to join me? -

Ben has finally been fired!!!

MP expenses
So my MP has announced his resignation today. I remember the 2005 election and feeling slightly cheated because none of the main stream parties were on my ballot paper as by convention they don't stand against the incumbent speaker of the House of Commons.
