		<description><![CDATA[Obviously, the most exciting and world-historical event of the last few weeks has been that the Greeks have run out of money and might not pay their debts. Good for them, say I. Ever heard the phrase, &#8216;&#160;&#160; Et Dodgy Collateral Ferentes?&#8217; Thought not. See what happens when they stop teaching the classics? But now [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite the gratifying intelligence that the scientific community is &#160;&#160; my suggestion of mass human hibernation as a solution to climate change, the family is not. No woman is a hero to her &#160;&#160;, and certainly not to her offspring. So instead, I&#8217;m staggering on up the blind alley I like to call their political [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We don&#8217;t often get actual letters in the Normal/Fixit household these days (do people still &#160;&#160; I wonder? Mail headers don&#8217;t have, at least to me, quite the same romantic appeal or gorgeous aesthetics, but, as I am constantly reminded by Mr Fixit, I am a redundant holdover from an altogether more primitive age.) So [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As the great J M Keynes may have said, most of the problems in the world can be attributed to people working too hard. Accordingly, you might expect that climate change and excessive consumption might slow down in August, when everybody stops working at all, and everything seems to carry on perfectly fine. (I have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I bet you&#8217;re relieved to be reading something that&#8217;s not about either Glastonbury or the World Cup. The former has stuffed its reputation for me by not magically dispelling the heat wave for these four days. Where is the fabled force of&#160;&#160;if it can&#8217;t even call up  mud? As for the footie, all I want [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is not my habit to make casual comparisons between the Green Party and&#160;&#160; , but one came to mind a few weeks ago, when I was asked if I’d mind standing as a Green councillor, in the reassuring certainty that there was no chance of my being elected. Old comrades among you may remember [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Christmas came early to the Normal/Fixit axis, when we started collecting jolly scraps of paper from old copies of &#8216;Recycling Weekly&#8217; to make into origami wreaths and tree decorations, and unravelling unwanted jumpers (of which we seem to have a mysteriously large supply) to re-knit into apple cosies and tiny socks to keep the cat&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

How come you managed to accumulate&#8230;&#8217; I scrabble feebly through the re-purposed fair trade cocoa tin &#8216;&#8230;twenty of these rubbishy things?&#8217; Fresh from a family struggle session over my hypocritical enthusiasm for filthy, carbon-spewing&#160;&#160;, I&#8217;m cross with them all this morning. ‘Well&#8217;, Dolly looks up from drawing [...]]]></description>
