Today’s blogging is brought to you with the aid of the CD of this radio show, thanks to this man. At this rate, I reckon I can keep my birthday going until Christmas at least.

ok. I’ll admit it. I am a webfloozie.
To quote the little black duck: I can’t help it. It’s the way I am.

I’ve been meaning to add Paul’s site to the navbar for ages. Now I’ve done it.

Yet more date update: leaving myself open to accusations of being a webfloozie, I’ve provisionally arranged a date with another woman for Sunday evening. There’s just no stopping me at the moment. Must be the weather or something.

The jury is still out on the whole believe her/don’t thing with my failed date from last night – with equal votes for both camps. My instincts say “don’t believe her” – I mean, how hard can it be to find a phone at a corporate event? But on the other hand, I am the world’s biggest softy and if she tried to arrange another date, I’d probably fall for it. gah.

Further date update: she’s just emailed me to say that she was stuck at a corporate event with a dud mobile phone.
Should I believe her or not?

Date update: got blown out – a no-show. guh.
So, any offers?

Beer last night in the company of Brenda, Greg, Al, Kearn and Stein, with glimpses of Bora, Zoltan (yes, that is his name), Paul S, Simone and Kristian. Very pleasant. And a good long slumber afterwards was welcome too.

Much talk in the media this morning about yesterday’s grand prix in Monaco. Here’s my opinion: David Coulthard and McLaren are sore losers. I think that Bernoldi was perfectly entitled to defend his position for two reasons – it gave a chance for his team mate, Jos Verstappen, to get ahead a little, and given that cars were falling off left right and centre, Bernoldi must have been in with a realistic chance of getting into the points. Coulthard has to face up to the fact that he does not have the right to barge past other drivers just because the defective technology in his car has left him at the back of the grid.

And, in the news tonight:

• Starbucks are to open a branch in Chichester, in the old Granada rentals shop in North Street
• the works to make the city centre pedestrian friendly continue, but I can’t see much more friendliness yet, just a forest of signs
• I was wound up today online, twice
• I have a date for tomorrow

More bulletins as events warrant.
