I highly recommend...

just a few thoughts from the last wee while. I haven't really had much time for reflection: so what follows are edited bits:

Firstly I recommend Feta Cheese crisps. They live in the new walkers meditterenean range. Very nice.

I recommend watching the Notebook, possibly the saddest film I've ever seen.. great for clearing the sinuses.

I recommend doing spontaneous things that scare you a bit. It makes you feel alive! (Mine is going to Ibiza on a whim.. eeeek)

I recommend Top Golf! Mainly for the joy it gives others.

I recommend friends.. even when its a bit scary, or ahrd, or inconvenient.

I recommend hanging in there in obedience even when all feels weird.

I recommend scary prayers, the ones that you almost hope God won't answer because if he does it will be insane.

I recommend a non scary God.. who likes me.. and you.. and actually likes hanging out with us..

I don't recommend being as schmultzy as this...

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good.

What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

For every £100 a month less income than the median you start school one month behind developmentally. Your vocabulary aged 5 is half what it is for a rich kid if you are in the bottom ten percent of income. Housing tenure stats are even worse. "Only 4 per cent of those of working age living in social housing have degrees, and nearly half have no or only low qualifications. Only half of men and 42 per cent of women of working age living in social housing are in paid work, compared with 89 per cent of men and 81 per cent of women in households with a mortgage." Social housing: by its nature, is grouped (london people ignore this, you are the freaks not the norm). That means that we have allowed ghettoes of poverty and low attainment (not just in a SATS way either). Now it would be easy, and some daft Tory has already done it, to pin this on
