Bye for now
- 8 Feb 06, 09:09 PM
An incredibly busy week beckons - a by-election, Commons votes on ID cards, glorification of terror and a smoking ban, Labour's Spring Conference so ... er ... I'm going on holiday with my family.
It's all Geoff Hoon's fault. The Leader of the Commons fixes parliamentary half-terms to match, if at all possible, those chosen by most people's schools.
Given the choice of coinciding with London schools or those beyond the capital, this proudly provincial son of Derby and man of the people plumped for the week after next. So I'm missing the next interesting few days.
No need to worry though. On previous holidays I didn't miss anything - oh, except the resignation of Sir Geoffrey Howe, the Omagh bombing and 7/7. Blogging will resume if I get to the bottom of the my Alpine resort or if I can't resist. Do get them to call me if anything dramatic happens!
