2012, 2012, 2012...
Well, at least that gives me something to work with. A deadline, if you will. Must move out of the city by 2012, must move out of the city...
While I can see the benefits (for some!) in this exercise, I find it morally wrong on all levels. And while I recognise that the East End probably will get a much-needed, well-deserved 'face-lift', I would prefer to just give them the friggin' money, instead of making a big song and dance about it. And if you don't have much money as it is already, the idea of having to cough up loads more in council tax may just prove impossible. Who cares about long term benefits if you just don't have the dough?
On a more personal level, I'm happily oblivious to the Olympics. Sports leave me cold. 2012 in London? I have but three words:
LONG
HAUL
FLIGHT.
Oh, and does anyone know Danish band Aztrid (or however they spell it?)? And have I completely lost all sense of, well, sense, by liking them?
Or are they actually pretty cool? Cheesy lyrics, brooding voices? I must be right.
