Back in Bristol!

Am propped up in my big ole bed, feeling very sleepy and a little smug about having the house to myself for a few days! Yay! (Here speaketh the introvert who has seen lots fo very lovely people in the last few days!)

Do also have a chunk of work to do, need to go to the dentist, write two more essays and edit one and then crack on with learning journal, CV and all that!

But if anyone would like to distract that would be lovely!

Bless you one and all

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
