A post of no importance is about to follow, so go do something else now.
I have been doing loads of work related crap today, and due to this pc being so crap it has taken a while. Internet access was so slow it was a struggle to open the site or my emails so in frustration I gave in and did some work.
But now, thanks to the magic of reboot computer, delete loads of stuff off my desktop, disk clean up and people going early for the weekend, thus lowering the demand on the net connection, I am here!
Yeah I know, big fucking deal.
Still, at least it looks like I am working. (the difference between me working and blogging at my computer consists mainly of me swearing slightly more when I am working, and looking a lot more pissed off. But dont tell anyone)
Now I would just like to know, this thing about local authorities loosing money that they had stashed in Icelandic banks why do local authorities have money to save up in foreign banks! Is that not money raised from us, council tax and the like? And if they have it, and heaps of it too so it seems, why are they not using it to make our lives better. In fact, if they have that much knocking around spare does it not prove that we are being overcharged by the bastards?
I know my grip on politics and finance is childish and ill informed, but still what the fuck is going on people?
In other news, IZ FRIDAY - HENJOY!

I don't think they really have lots of money, I think it's more just that council tax tends to be paid in advance of the bills coming in (say, annually, at the beginning of the year) so needs to be stashed somewhere (preferably not Iceland...) in the meantime, no?
