* I'm off with my partner to visit a female friend and bring her back for the Easter so this blog won't get updated til next monday. This friend is quite an interesting woman, she is in no way a new ager (acts spitting routine) but she is shall we say strange. The thing that attracted my attention was one day at a tribal gathering she told me she didn't like a woman of mutual acquaintance. When I asked why she said' She hasn't got a soul.' Meaning what? asked I. 'She's not connected to anything.' said my enigmatic friend. Apparently there are people around without souls. She wasn't certain whether they were born without them or they died on them as she had never seen a small child without one. They are disaster areas apparently and I must admit she was right about our mutual acquaintance who causes sore hearts and broken lives scattered about. I wondered if she was therefore like a robot but apparently not. They lack discernment she said. Anyway I hope my soul hasn't done a runner or she won't come with us which would be a shame as she is immensely entertaining.

* A friend emailed me who had seen my report on mr cameron and pointed out that cameron had proposed the support of marriage. This is a positive in his favour. The thing is that not everyone who might like to get married has enough room in their house to accommodate a nanny. A grant should be provided to enable married couples to get an additional room added to their houses. In addition he pointed out that some poorer families could not afford to pay their nannies the minimum wage and this might explain the large number of illegal immigrants in the country, who are acting as nannies to poor people paying them beneath the minimum wage. Obviously a top up grant for poor people is required.
