I thought that it would be nice to share with the Sandpits readers the good news that we we have a new resident here at Chez Hall, after much badgering from my daughter I have got us a cute kitty cat which of course means that I am going to give our readers a long series of posts about this cute rascal as he bounces around our house and our hearts. I just hope that I can live up to the fine tradition of cat blogging as demonstrated by the likes of our learned friend.

Isn’t he a cute addition to Chez Hall?
PS did many eagle eyed readers notice that I got a tweet up onto the screen of QandA last night? its not easy to do so while maintaining your conservative street-cred. anyway this is the tweet:
Dysfunctional governments in the third world is not our fault, nor our problem #qanda

Hi iain, I’m a recent subscriber to your blog, and the rarest of TV viewers. But last night I did watch QANDA and spotted what looked like could only be your twitter hashtag. Well done, chum.
Dear Iain
I’m afraid I gave up on QandA many years ago, but congrats on your tweet. I’ve noticed that tweets are sometimes the best part of these types of show.

In a post colonial world isn’t it reasonable to disavow all obligations that might once have been characterised as “the white man’s burden”?
As a nation this country has as its primary reason for being to look out for the welfare of its own citizens if the other people of the world don’t have functional societies then its their problem not ours.
