		<description><![CDATA[I decided that seeing as our kids will probably be working until they&#039;re 70+, then leaving school, working for a few years, and going to university mind-20&#039;s will still give them over 40 more years at work afterwards, and might be a plan! 

Very bloody depressing though. And I can&#039;t quite work out how the government think we are going to pay more in university fees whilst getting less money. It doesn&#039;t exactly make working hard any more appealing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[site back now - we were talking about it today and didn&#039;t realise they only have Chemistry at level 2 at the moment.  Maybe it won&#039;t be long until they get the next ones on though, not sure.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[well that&#039;s it. i think everyone gonna be hit hard except those v poorest and those v richest [the first cos they can&#039;t lose more and the second cos they can lose 20% and although i imagine it will still be noticeable, there are some easier sacrifices to make rather than probably home!] so not wanting any particularly singled out pats on back for loss! but to make the point that most ppl in the country will feel significantly affected.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[http://www.gravitaspublications.com/ is the site - to look at the books you click on the store and what book you want to see but they&#039;ve been updating the site and it&#039;s down at the moment.

Sounds like a fab day, even if it was a slow paced one.  Sometimes they are the best.  Giggle at the ticksheets!]]></description>
