Should Auld acquiaintences...

Well, everyone else is at it, so time for this little blog to make predications for 2010.  Here, then, the distilled considerations of what the future may hold from the pen of the Greek sceptic himself...

1. CCBC will all convert to Masonry, hold secret meetings and never speak to the press ever again.
2. A new government will slash spending on almost everything in sight whilst simultaneously promising not to
3. The media will take turns to compete for 'Biggest Liars of the Year' award and they'll all win
4. Significant sums of money destined to regenerate Colwyn Bay will mysteriously disappear and Rhyl will enter a new Age of Renewal
5. MPs will complain they don't have enough to live on while continuing to try to claim for their moats to be cleaned and their duck houses to be painted
6. Bankers will be paid massive bonuses
7. Reporters will openly decry the Bankers' massive bonuses while sorting out the finance for their second and third houses.
8. People will continue to say what a wonderful person Margaret Thatcher was.
9. People will continue to point out just what a disaster for the country Margaret Thatcher was, partly by reminding people that it was she who started the entire covert, unmonitored, secret expenses system for MPs to replace the salary rises they wanted to award themselves when she'd stopped everyone else in the country from having them.
10. People will continue to argue that Climate change isn't caused by human activities, as yet another area of rainforest the size of China disappears.

Finally, some carefully considered New Year resolutions for the councillors on Conwy CBC:

1. Tell the truth

Have a wonderful New Year's Eve.
