    Why only social housing?

    Because it's only 20,000 words and there's only me doing it, and that is most relevent to where I want to find a job.

    Have you decided that focussing yourself down is a better strategy than broadening yourself out?

    Can I still see you on the snogging thread? :T

    I'm required to focus down - the course is on social housing.
