I want to know where the money from our income tax goes. I know it goes on "defence, education" etc. But I want to know EXACTLY how much is spent on what and from how much tax in the first place. Any ideas?

I've looked for a breakdown of how much money the government gets from income tax and where it spends it,but alas, I have come up with nothing. I naively thought there would be a nice graph of incomings and outgoings on some .gov site but there isn't. Or is there?

I don't live in UK (hurrah!) anymore.

I'm homesick. Tell me what I missing and tell me what I'm not.

...and I don't mean should I dress my son in dresses etc. I just mean that are there specific times when it is O.K. to favour one?

My mother-in-law knitted a jumper for my son, but bought a jumper for my daughter, saying that it was cheaper to buy the jumper than the wool?

I answered a question about a painting and it intruiged me so after putting the whole sentence into google I found an "Art" forum with the exact thread as here but I was called Van Gogh with some dodgy gothy picture! Surely I'm not going mad. Please what's going on?

pertained to us not being affected directly by our surroundings but that we ourselves created our own emotions then attatched them to our surroundings. For example. I got up this morning and felt afraid so I put it down to a looming exam or job interview when in actual fact I was simply experiencing fear for no other reason than that.

Thanks.

I moved to Sweden a year ago and while it's great the think I miss most about home is the telly. We have some !FINE! telly. Anyway, I caught an episode of Extras yesterday. The one with Orlando Bloom. I laughed so much I cried. But I'm wondering...do I find it this funny because I'm starved of British humour or is it worth purchasing?

And meet yourself as a child, what would be the one thing you would tell you?

"While the sinners sin the children play, oh happy day" was all I caught. Thanks.

124 was spiteful. Full of a baby's venom.

Which book and what do you think of it?

(yes I know, that's 2 lines)

A few miles south of Soledad, the Salinas River frops in close to the hillside bank and runs deep and green.

And then, what do you think of this book?

I know I am like, 20 years late, but I watched it last night and I'd love some feedback on what anyone reckons was going on. The little tiny pensioners scared me! And how Twin Peaks was it, OMG!
