The Psychologist Has Been Round.

As was scheduled after last Thursday's (10/12) adventures with the police the psychologist from the Heavers Road memory service team today visited my grandmother. By my own choice I was not party to the meeting. From the reports I have though the main thrust is that the Heavers Road team have decided that they don't want to play any more. Therefore my grandmother is to be transferred to the Queen's Road crisis team which is just another part of the Croydon memory service. This transfer won't take place until the new year so over the next to three weeks we should have relative peace and quiet.

While I'm here has anyone seen this; http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2228594104

Here in the UK we have a TV show called X Factor. It is very much the same to the Pop Idol / American Idol / Afghan Idol shows that seem to pervade the world because all these shows are the brainchild of one man, Simon Cowell. For the last six years the record released by the winner of this show has gone on to become the culturally important Christmas Number 1 single. This years effort promises to be exceptionally grim being a cover of Miley Cyrus' "The Climb" being sung totally anonymous 18 year old from Newcastle. In protest against this assault on common decency some people have set up the above Facebook group which is campaigning for people to go a download Rage Against the Machine's "Killing in the Name of" in the hope it will outsell X Factor winner and become the British Christmas number 1. Obviously you won't be able to participate in this campaign unless of course you were to use a proxy server that would randomly assign you a UK based ISP address.

Anyway the first heads of state are beginning to arrive in Copenhagen for the high level phase of the COP15 so it might be an idea for me to start taking things seriously again.
