New Weebl.

Jobs I hate: defrosting the freezer. Guh.

I’m listening to "In Conversation with…" on Radio 4. Tonight’s guest is Bruce Forsyth. He’s incomparable. Did you know he made his TV debut in 1938? Not many performers can claim that.

Want one.

Staffing the nursery on my own this afternoon, my reverie has just been disturbed by a brown bundle of fluff who is demanding his tea. You can almost set your watch by Seamus. How do they do that? How do they know it is exactly 4.30 without a watch?

I’ve just installed my new HP PCS2110 printer/scanner/copier. To give credit where credit is due, it is much much easier to use than the nursery’s Xerox XK35c. Highly recommended.

On the anniversary of the inquest result that described the 7th Earl of Lucan as a murderer, take a look at Lady Lucan’s official website. I think it just goes to show that, regardless of your title or position in life and the class system, events like those of that November day in 1974 generally just screw up lives.

Happy birthday to my mum. Not that she reads this. Thankfully.

The new BloggerPro has been launched, and it is much better than its predecessor, especially in terms of screen layout and template editing. Woo and yay!

Return flight from London Heathrow (LHR) to Santa Barbara (SBA), via Los Angeles (LAX), flying all four legs on American Airlines: £1338.00.
Same journey, but with the legs between LHR and LAX on Air New Zealand: £708.00.

Hands up everyone in the room that can work out how it is that AA nearly went bust.
