Lost weekend
February 26th, 2006Ow ow ow. A weekend spent in Cambridge getting an entirely unwarranted anachronism of a degree (photos here), eating, drinking, partying, not sleeping, and then spending the following day lost in the Cambridgeshire countryside as part of an ill-conceived “walking will cure our hangovers” adventure (my sense of direction, while fine in urban environments, is totally foiled in the sticks). And now I’ve got back home with extra letters on the end of my name, far fewer banknotes in my wallet and whatever the equivalent of a bulging mailsack is for RSS feeds. I need to start hiring someone to read them for me and give me a brief breakdown.
In the meantime… this excellent post by Murky shows just how appalling our government is, and why Geoff Hoon’s nickname should not be “Buff” but “I’m such an insultingly incompetent politician that I can’t even give a tenth of an answer, let alone a half-answer to a serious constitutional question, instead resorting to potshots of mind-boggling irrelevance and that makes me a complete shithead” (note to self - may be too long; may just have to trim down to “shithead”).
