Nick Clegg- the new leader of the Lib Dems- has appointed the musician and all-round avant-garde weird guy Brian Eno as his "advisor on youth affairs".
It's a little too cool. It's an example of a middle-aged politician trying to show that he's "down with the kids" and getting it (not so) subtly wrong.
Recent news is that Nora fell in M & S this pm and has broken her wrist. Currently Ma and Ian are with her in Kent and Sussex hospital and she's being looked after well. However, she will need to stay with Ma tonight and they'll know more when they return to hosp tomorrow for assessment. Poor thing. Christmas may be somewhat altered, but you are very welcome to stay here if plans have to change. Hope you are well. Jenny

Date: 2007-12-20 02:37 pm (UTC)When did Eno last have anything to do with youth?
And- equally to the point- how many of today's youth know (or care) anything about Eno?
