Greetings From Llandudno!

Hello!

Quick post from ECG. Whilst I would never want to compare with other conferences I would like to say that this place has the following lovely features!
A four star hotel (with chandeliers, room service, free wireless, lovely staff and those doors that Josh Lyman can't make work!)
A very new conference centre, with staff who set up rooms EXACTLY as you asked!
Shops (like all the ones you need for creating prayer rooms) within two minutes walk.

We're still getting in the swing of things, but so far so good! (although do pray that my back makes it! Its pretty bad!)

More soon.

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

A Broadside: *plot spoiler* for Tory sympathisers

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
