		<description><![CDATA[I am not under any illusion that the nation&#8217;s direst current need is a corrective for excessive Olympomania. Even the&#160;&#160;now refers to money being &#8216;shovelled&#8217; into the opening ceremony, and his item the other day was very unkindly edited to imply that said event was intended to give spectators a laugh at the expense of [...]]]></description>

		<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[In keeping with the anti-materialist spirit of these pages, it occurred to me after a few seasonal crossed synapses that the recent festivities would be a lot more enjoyable if we could get rid of things, as well as acquiring them. And not just those generic presents that go straight into the emergencies drawer. I&#8217;m [...]]]></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[A rare item of good news arrived in the Normal/Fixit&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;this month, with the solution of the problem of what to do with all the compost piling up malodorously right outside the kitchen window. There are limits to how much compost a mostly paved city pocket hankie can actually absorb. The solution arrived in the form [...]]]></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[Now that we&#8217;re all officially facing hard times, even the most committed anti-consumer finds herself wondering how she&#8217;s going to keep her children in life&#8217;s essentials: mobile game machines and size 12 football boots. Pity the ex-government advisers and council chiefs, who have an extra £250,000 a year to find &#8211; it&#8217;s the first time [...]]]></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>
