Where have I been?

The only posts on this blog over the last 2 weeks have been auto posts showing the week’s Twitter updates. The reason for this is pretty simple really. I’ve been too busy to focus on the blog.

I work long shifts at a hotel and don’t get the opportunity to blog mid shift and when I haven’t been working, I’ve been busy sorting things in my flat as I have a new flatmate and there was new furniture to purchase and then construct which is a novel in itself. I have also been building a website for Glasgow University Conservatives, which will be live in a week from now.

In-between all that I seem to have completely forgotten about the Norwich North by-election. All I had time for was a quick Tweet, but no results service.

Anyways, I now have the flat in a reasonable condition and so I can return to the blogsphere. Looking around at other blogs, I haven’t missed a great deal which is not surprising given we are now in the middle of holiday season.

So with three weeks away from the world of politics, not a lot has changed. The government is still in meltdown, we have even more bizarre ideas from Osborne on how to mend the economy and that’s about it really. There’s no change in the polls and so there really isn’t much to say.

This has made me think what would I have blogged if I had been writing posts of the last few weeks? The honest answer is I’m not too sure.

I now have just 28 days until I am due to go into hospital for what is becoming annual surgury on my hip. This time it’s being described as mjaor with a reasonable chance of nerve damage in my leg. Past experience of the NHS does not fill me with the greatest of confidence, but then again I can’t afford to go private so the only other option is a hip replacement, which at my age is not a great prospect.
