Oh dear, another Government agency has done it again. The DVLA has lost 3 million records on disc in Iowa. What on earth were they doing in Iowa? There should be a Ministry of Incompetence, mind you it will need loads of staff. That will reduce unemployment. It may even find jobs for the 165,000 asylum seekers who may be given an amnesty to stay!!!!!
The Government Home Affairs dept has advised the Home Office to give the Police their pay rise in full, but the Home Secretary says no. Upon her head be it. I'm sure she, and her fellow MP's will for go their rise when it is due, and keep below the Government figures, and pigs might fly.
England have made a steady start in the Test match. Lets hope tomorrow will see Sri Lanka out cheaply, and England bat well.
It looks like the two murders in West Yorkshire may be detected, two charged and at court in Dewsbury, and one in custody in Huddersfield for the Holmfirth murder.

Shopping, Yuk
Today went shopping in Huddersfield for final Xmas gifts. I love Christmas, but hate the shopping part. Took my car a Nissan in for its service, all money going out.
We had a murder in Holmfirth over the weekend, and one in Dewsbury. Its tragic at the best of times, but so near Xmas is more poignant. You have to feel for the relatives.

PM, parties, and views
The last two days have produced a drawn test match. I think Sri Lanka outplayed us. Nuf said.
England have a new football coach.. This time an Italian. It seems that English football suffers with too many foreign players, and coaches. I think the top six clubs all have foreign coaches (I include Scotland is foreign for this purpose).
Gordon Brown did an amazing disappearing act. He arranged a meeting after the date had been set for signing the European treaty, and was not there for the signing in Portugal, sending a boy to do the mans job. Why didn't Brown go? Does he not agree with the treaty? Was he worried he has sold us down the river to Brussels? Is he ashamed at back tracking on a referendum? Was he scared to append his name to it? Or was he just showing bad manners to the other European heads?
Poor old Jacqui Smith the Home Secretary, another debacle, this time with figures of persons given permits to work in the security industry, even though they should not have been in the country. The words in a brewery, a p**s-up, organise, couldn't, spring to mind.
Went to a good Xmas party with my wifes colleagues from Dewsbury Ambulance station last night to Leeds Royal Armouries. An excellent venue, good DJ, brilliant night.
Today is my dad's birthday. He is called Owen and lives in Guernsey, where I come from initially. He too was a police officer before he retired. Runs in the family. Work for me at the estate agents was pretty quiet, so I delivered leaflets. And thats it for today.
