Tomorrow there's yet another General Strike:
Trains
Buses
Trams
Planes
Boats
Fire-fighters (!)
Healthcare workers
State workers
So, this post leaves you with a book recommendation to be getting on with (literally a bit behind The Times but worth it if you've not got around to reading it yet) whilst I sit on the blog picket line in protest over the lack of transport and public services.
Happy Friday everyone!!!

Am dreading the traffic tomorrow...Wonder why they pick a Friday to strike.
I think they probably picked Friday to have a 3 day weekend, no? I didn't read the Kite Runner book but I saw the movie and it moved me to tears. I may still have to pick up the book one of these days though. It's a good addition to any library.
P.S. I know you probably don't care too much about American politics but here is a piece by the author of The Kite Runner:
