End of half term!

Well its the end of the week and I'm venue spotting in Casualty (looking out for places in Bristol). Am feeling quite chilled: have mainly pottered today. I spent a great couple of hours in a cafe by the docks. I just took my journal mainly and processed out some thoughts with God.
A few thoughts kept springing to mind; lots to think through. Sorry thats cryptic: just need to process more I think.

Came back and started nesting in our study. Am home alone so thought I would start turning our study into a prayer room/ den. Its a cool room, just needed a bit of tweaking. A couple of sheets and a few cushions and we'll be good to go! So off to Ikea tomorrow I think..

Might even have discovered a sofa on freecycle..

More soon..

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

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
