We're off to Andorra again this afternoon for a pleasant weekend skiing and relaxing. Then, the weekend afterwards, we're off to Port del Comte (Lleida) for even more skiing action! And to think that last year, we didn't go at all…

In other news, I have updated the theme for this site. Some concerned readers told me yesterday that they had noticed problems with the site MONTHS ago but had only now remembered to tell me. Still, better late than never, eh? I quite like the new version of K2 Beta, particularly the comments page.

This week has been one of still simmering debate on l'Estatut and now open hostility over some danish cartoons. Without going into the issues too much now, I can only say that (a) I'm disappointed that the PSOE were cowed into partnering with the CIU, but satisfied that the PP have calmed down a little; and that (b) the freedom of speech should never be used to hurl insults at people but that at the same time, my freedom of speech must always have more protection than someone else's religious laws… I am not a muslim, and while I respect the right for people to believe what they choose, I will not live my life according to religious law. What gets me is the newspapers that followed suit during the week, seemingly with the express intention of stirring things up. Shame on you, lazy journalists.
