Your News: You sent them all in, he read them all out

Well, we didn't have room to read out every sentence of news you sent in last week (much as we would have liked to). Thanks for taking the time to share your news with Your News. Drop us a line anytime. Also thanks to the BBC legend Brian Hanrahan for reading your headlines.
Here's the script:
My son phoned to say I was on Google Maps, in my front garden, doing some gardening - it must've been summer, as the agapanthus was in glorious bloom. Is this fame at last?
Our foster child is moving on in a fortnight, and we're wondering when his social worker is going to get round to telling him.
Spent the last two days sitting in the intensive care unit in Wellington Hospital, New Zealand, holding my mother's hand after her quadruple heart bypass op - a fine holiday this turned out to be!
My husband didn't get the voluntary redundancy he'd applied for - now he's faced with either a promotion or compulsory redundancy, which means more uncertainty for the next 3 months. Do we spend or save?
My wife's become acutely depressed, and for the first time in our 19 years together wants to make love every night: how am I supposed to react to this bittersweet turn of events?
Send us a dozen or so words summing up an event in your week. Leave a comment on the blog or drop us an email.

As a child I was brought up to believe that a British Government was fairly un corruptable. Snouts in the trough seem to be reserved for disfunctional African states and South American despots.
But this Government has shown it's true colours from Mandelsons loans, Jowels Loans, MP's expenses, dodgy Vazz dealings and now Porn on tap Jaqui Smith. Lord Myners off shore nest eggs, etc etc. It is about time we had a change.
I despair.

Heaven Help the people of the New
South Downs National Park , if the
experience of the unelected quango
who are now running the New Forest
National Park. The majority of
people are up in open revolt on
proposed restrictions on walking
dogs. fields used by ponies
requiring planning. Planning needed
for Sat Dishes , colour of your gate
or house. Small business signs not
allowed. Planning blight on small
business expansion. You only have
to read the local press ,and letters
to the Editor. Its a expensive
disaster , and we all hope our
next Government will dissolve , and
put a end to Prescott,s ill thought
out dream

Well just wait till I tell my Mum her news appeared on the BBC! She's out of intensive care now, after 5 days. I wonder how much that cost the NZ taxpayer? She is delighted to have probably got all her tax contributions over her entire life time back in the last 3 weeks!

Nicky Sarkozy is sending us (me and Mimi) 200 euros next week. I suppose this is a pathetic attempt to redeem his continued public snubbing of me.The proof: how many times have you heard my name this last week in his speeches? My point, I think, is made.
Incidentally, Sarkozy is very nearly an anagram for So Crazy. Just thought I'd point this out.

As one of the ex-business types dregged into education to bring knowledge and guidance I have had one of the most frustrating weeks for a while. Why is it that in education a well meaning but completely ignorant academic can convince Senior Managers that IT policy or Finance Policy or whatever should not apply to them?
Is it the art of communication, the professional etiquette of academics (who have that old fashoned doctor approach of NEVER criticising each other) or is it just the really don't realise they're working for a business yet??

It's a real challenge when your 17 year old daughter moves out to be with her 28 year old tatooist boyfriend during AS exams, what's the point?!
