Yesterday was a long day. A piece in the Guardian about political blogging and the elusive power thereof that mentions Samizdata.net and my own reminenscing about the days when political power was anything but elusive.

Morning Adriana,
Interesting reading your entry. To be honest I know very little about the events but I know my ex never really looked back on the events with real fondness…
She was pretty young at the time (10/11) but the events pretty much ripped her familys beliefs apart(church leaders closely aligned to the old regime)
I think like a sizeable minority her father was never has been able fully accept the change
Hmmm, I should really read up more on it actually as it’s an interesting time…

On a lighter note… I once took my ex to Liverpool for the day (romantic I know!) and wandering past some god awful architectural disaster of a 60’s tower block ask in all seriousness “were the communists here also?”
