Some of you might remember that earlier in the year, doctors and surgeons gave me little to be optimistic about, bowel wise. You may also remember I said, "Stuff that" and decided to do my own thing. I decided I would get painfully out of bed, however few steps I could stagger at first and try to build up some strength, whilst jiggling my sleepy bowels, milkshake like, into some kind of activity.

Every now and then, for a bit of a laugh, I play "Spot the truth" on the @DWPpressoffice twitter account. It would seem poverty rates came out today and I don't suppose you need me to tell you they've gone up. Nonetheless, @DWPpressoffice are valiantly tweeting that some relative poverty levels have gone done and Hallelujah, 100,000 disabled people are no longer living in poverty!! How can this...
