Today, Mr. Brown moved into Number 10.
The Blairs moved out, and Cheri told the press that she wouldn't miss them.
Naturally, there have been numerous montages of The Blair Years at the end of various news shows.
These montages play really cheesy music.

Have just talked to Fabiana on Skype phone -- her School graduates on Monday 16 July and mine graduates on Wednesday 18 July! It is kind of surreal. The year 2005-2006 was a complete brain-trauma for all of us (while at the same time being great fun. it was kind of like watching a movie of your life, except when someone trips, it is you. and this does not always make you laugh.), and yet now it all seems so very far away. Everyone has scattered back across the world, although in very different places (literally and figuratively) than we came from in the first place (and they should all fill out their 'Where I Have Been' maps on Facebook).
Dawny -- Huddersfield
Katharine -- Cardiff
Fabiana -- Brussels
Hiroko -- moving to Oregon
Mari -- moving to the US
Kneece -- France
Helene -- Oxford
Steffi -- moving to Germany
Maurizio and Kath -- parenthood
Georgia -- her first house
Me -- Normal for Norfolk
Mercy me. The fact that almost all my friends from that segment of life [except Hiroko -- she cannot come from Japan for a two-hour ceremony :( ] are going to be dressing up in funny hats and capes to 'graduate' 10 months after submitting the outcome of our hard work and then mildly freaking out for several months to find what the hecks to do next just really doesn't compute at all.
OMG!!!!! Graduation is like two weeks away! eeeekkk!
Someone had best get knitting. She has dawdled entirely too long. She has knitted sweaters for various baby-type creatures (and a moose) and she has twirled her hair and made Nestle Toll House cookies in a most irresponsible manner. Here is Cooking for Engineers version... excellent!
Fabiana also got to see the fishes (Jasper and Carrot), and we both squealed quite alot about how fabulous it is that they are still alive and how big they are :)
AND, Kneece is coming from France for my graduation! Whee! (It is a reeeeeally good thing I am taking the entire week off, methinks)
*******
The only thing to annoy me today is that Norwich Council seems to feel that plastic is not recyclable. And so, 9,732 empty milk containers are still in my recycle bins. Idiots.
knit, knit, knit, knit, knit...

Remember not to follow the same pattern as for Bear. It might need a bit of stretching before you will be able to wear it :)
