But ION than issues that are making The Girl cry and me want to lose the plot entirely with certain people (were The Girl not asking me NOT to, I absolutely would be)...
Yad Vashem is an amazing, if horrendous and harrowing place. For me personally, it was moving on a number of levels, including thoughts of my grandfather (he was a British Jew who served in WW2 and never talked about it afterwards), and wider connections with the Eugenics projects that happened at the same time in the UK and other non-Nazi-controlled countries (research into this has formed a significant part of my work on various aspects of Other-ing disabled people). I learned a lot, despite having thought before that I was already quite informed on the subject. Definitely somewhere that everybody should visit if they go to Israel.
So my apparently my home country has got lost under feet and feet of snow. I do hope our flight home on Thursday actually takes off.
Polter-Cow, eek! I hope that's not a mistake your landlord repeats.
Vortex, that's fantastic (and congrats). There should be more good bosses in the world.
