Just wanted to point out that I've managed more than one post each day (as an average). I hope 2009 was kind and that 2010 delivers what you want rather than what you deserve :-)
Happy New Year to everyone!

Nearly there!
Always nice when a visitor stays over - Cal in the spare room after an evening of Dr Who, pizza and Waterloo Road.
Tomorrow we'll hang some decorations and visit Waitrose for final bits and because we always go on Christmas Eve.

More cuts
In a letter to the Higher Education Funding Council For England (HEFCE), he also asks universities to protect quality and access to higher education. How special is this? A government which has sunk billions of pounds into projects to increase participation in higher education is now cutting HE funding and threatening fines for providers who over-recruit. Mandelson wants to take out more money - this is on top of the ELQ cuts remember - but also wants quality and access protected. Universities are generally very good at doing things which other institutions cannot but this one is up there with plaiting fog and nailing jelly to the ceiling.
The government is to cut university funding by £533m - from £7.81bn this year to £7.29bn for 2010-11, Business Secretary Lord Mandelson has said.

Frosty morning
What doesn't show in this shot is the beautiful pink colour of the sky. The sun rises from behind the taller trees to the left of centre and before the sky gets light it's wonderful watching the sun creep up.
