28 september 2009, cleaning up

Sunday 27th September 2009

A quiet day, for once. Party in the morning for one kid, homework needing to be done for the other - which was who I got. Maths. Cleaned up (it’s my week), made lunch, made dinner and got through myriad of games (with kids) and odds and sods (with computer) in between. Even popped out to buy a heater in anticipation of cold coming soon to my study. Exorcised too about cuts coming soon (of the public spending sort), and intrigued about the wheeze of a “fiscal responsibility bill”. It’s going to be a toss up for effectiveness with the climate change bill, which is going to cut emissions by – come on ladies and gents, do I hear 80% ? - by, wait for it (you will), 2050. I suspect the ratings agencies and bond markets might have something to say about our spending habits a tad before any such law does.
