Election week

It's been a mad, mad week for Suzie especially, with loads of work and some very long days to make the election happen in Derby. Still, it's all over and as a result we have a Tory MP for Oakwood while the other 2 Derby seats went to Labour and just as the National Government is going to be a coalition because no one party has the majority, so it is in Derby City Council. We made sure that everyone locally in the family voted - that's both sets of parents and us and our boys. The televised national debates with the 3 main party leaders seemed to add a level of interest not previously seen and the turn-out was the best seen for years, which can only be good - at least people are getting out there and making the effort and using their vote.

So who will be in number 10 Downing Street? As long as it's not Gordon Brown I really don't care!
