Back online

I'm back. Just got in this morning, after a gruelling eleven hour flight from Vancouver via Edmonton. Lots of great sights to see and even kept an eye and ear open to Canadian political happenings, some of which I hope to come back to future posts.

Also a thanks to Andrew for alerting me to this blog that promises to cover the Hartlepool by-election. Typical though, isn't it. You go away for two weeks and Peter Mandleson gets offered a new job. And I wasn't there to comment. Oh well, you can't win them all...
