Total joy
This is the first time in 17 years that I haven't been to a party conference. The joy I feel at not having to go to any of the wretched things - no job which necessitates my being there amd no book to promote - is unconfined. I have never felt anything other than total hatred of the party conference season, and my absence this year means I will have a smile fixed on my face for the next two weeks.
