Michael the Doctor!!

Best news of the weekend was that Michael has gotten himself into medical school. This is very exciting!! It also prompted some very amusing google searching. Here are two very contrasting (and hugely innaccurate) views of Mr Holland!

The best bit is that this was found on a gay music site! Genius!

Congratulations michael- this is hugely well-deserved and we is PROPER proud...And you are SO right: Beach toys WON'T save you

not even one of those massive inflatable dolphins? I'm crushed!

BTW: Can you tell we're both bored at work?

Actually I have to disagree. A beach toy COULD save you if it was one of the inflatable ones and you were lost at sea - you could float with it and therefore save energy by not having to swim. Also, by being brightly coloured (as beach toys are) it'd be easily spotted by a helicopter.

Congrats Michael - fab news! (And don't forget your rubber ring)

that's true except my memory of beach toys is them all having random punctures...i don't think kate winslet would've lasted long if leo had put her on a blow-up dolphin instead of that piece of furniture

Oo - yeah - my mum told me this on Sunday - WELL DONE :oDD

Oh, and probably not, Kate - I don't think the rubber would appreciate the freezing water.

Although...if it had been one of those banana boat things, he could've fitted on there as well.

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.

A Broadside: *plot spoiler* for Tory sympathisers

Today some alarming social equality data was released. It said what we all know: if you are poor, you have less opportunities in life. 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
