To The Occupiers

The joy of a fresh snowfall is a short reprieve from wondering if you'll have to leave your mates, your school, your church. Every day in the garden is a cruel reminder that we're just days away from possibly losing it all, through no fault of our own.



A letter I received 10 minutes ago:

"Dear Sir (ahem, I am not a sir)

Our client: Blanketyblankbank of the United Kingdom
Mortgaged property: 210 Bleepybleep, Blunder, Norfolk, AB12 34C


We write in respect of the above matter and the forthcoming possession hearing on the 101st of February 2009 in the Silly Sessions Court.

We can confirm that our Client is seeking an Order for Possession at the hearing to protect their interest in the above mentioned property.

Please note however, our Client will not enforce any Order granted at the hearing until after expiry of the tenancy agreement (105th January 2010) which you currently hold with Mr. P.

If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

Yours faithfully Bangdatycocks"

It's probably apparent that dates and names have been changed, but for the most part, can we just say, "HALLELUJAH!!!" ?




If you'll excuse me, I have some unpacking to do and snow to play in. Things look so much brighter today.

    That's the best news I've heard in a while. And the snowy picture of the back garden is beautiful. Enjoy the snow (and the unpacking, if you can enjoy that).
