Funny few days.. pt1

Days of contrast really. All a bit crazyyy..

Yesterday started in sunny Southgate (though it was dark!). Said bye to the rats (who really are cute as pets).

Got the tube into St Pauls and walked through the City (only getting slightly lost) taking in the sites and sounds. Found this:

Tee hee.
Had a great meeting and then headed to Chichester to talk finance and generally disrupt the 24-7 international office. Really enjoyed reading about Moravians and Methodists. Quite enjoyed the note taking study thing too..
Watched part of the Notebook on the way home..

Such a good weepy film..
And had pancakes and watched the OC when I got home... Tired but happy!

"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
