Must be spring... The first rays of sunshine hit the ground and immediately there are at least two new couples (Michaël and Joyce, Tim and Maaike) and rumours start again, though for once at least one name has changed. Of course, I wish the new couples the best of luck and nice time together.
The downside of the whole spring thing that the creative minds also tune down a bit, so there isn't that much that I can link to at the moment. One of my blog-like sources that maintains a mixed list of very mixed topics (commercials to sketches to adult entertainment), has become somewhat less mixed as of late (no guesses on what is over-represented). Thank god for icons that give fair warnings!
I can do you a quick random and less random news update: the pope died, Charles moved his marriage by a date as 'it clashed with the Pope's funeral' and Tony Blair has asked the Queen to dissolve parliament to open up the way for new elections on the 5th of May in an attempt to cash in on the 'feel good feeling' surrounding the wedding. That last fact puzzles me a bit, but anyway: Labour and the Tories are nearly tied in the polls, with Labour being ahead by a few percent (but within the margin of error, and with a month to go).
In other, UC related issues, I'm finding myself in 4 person group consisting of three people out of which one is now in hospital with a burst appendix. I and the other group member hope that our other member will get well soon. In the meantime we're working to get the full load done.
For those who also visit the council website: I apologise for the menu not being updated for about two and a half weeks now. Of course we can all understand that leaving the country without telling other people, planing other things during meetings, not showing up for more important meetings and failing to do simple tasks such as asking for a menu, providing the promised tea and cookies or sending a get-well-soon bunch of flowers, are just things that accidentally happen and have no link whatsoever with a possible lack of commitment to an elected task. Everything is back to normal.
Happy Spring everybody.
