It's been a while

I've been away you see, 7000 miles away in Buenos Aires enjoying the summer weather, steaks and red wines. I know, apparently the weather was good here too while I was away, and it was only snowing on the day that I left 30 degree sunshine when we got back to terminal 4, Heathrow. It's a great country that is going through some difficulty at the moment and has been for a few years now. That's bad for the portenos, but good for the touristas because the pounds buys six shiny pesos, and you can eat and drink well for 20 to 30 a pop.
Anyway, back in the UK and back to work. What's up with the MMC shit? Everyone who's out of that system is a lucky bugger, anyone who's in and it's a lucky dip as to what job you get and where. This is gonna mean an exodus, but it's a good job all the Eastern European states are in the EU now, it means that the UK can undercut it's own graduates with those who are willing to work for less and send their money out of the UK. It leaves their own countries short of docs, but you can't blame someone for doing the best for themselves and their family that they can. If it was me, I'd do the same.
