Earlier on I did an interview for Italian radio, RAI Duo to be precise and hopefully I should get a link so that we can all hear how it came across. Those of you living in Italy should be able to tune in on Saturday morning.
Nick will be doing media work for Russian and Australian TV tomorrow. Having had a good chat with the producer who was calling from Sydney, she was fascinated to hear that Nick was forbidden to enter Australia some time back and his most recent visa application, to visit in December/January, has disappeared into a black hole. I wonder, now that he is an MEP, whether or not they would try and refuse him entry now. We'll know soon enough.
Looking at the comments section I see there's a little bit of a spat developing between the catophobics and the feliphiliacs. The You Tube video I posted, as I said was no pet of mine, a far too gentle animal for that. Stoats parading in front of a window here would produce a cataclysmic reaction costing hundreds in ornaments and furniture.
On reflection I have to say that there's something very unsavoury about Jack Straw being in a position to deny Ronnie Biggs parole. In no way do I say this thing in an anti-Semitic manner, it's just that I find the whole thing, well, just thoroughly vindictive. When you see criminals who have committed the most heinous of crimes allowed to trot out of jail in next to no time, to see a sick, old man singled out like this is not the British way of doing things.
With it being so swelteringly hot and humid an excellent excuse is provided for me to enhance your blogging experience with this splendid piece of data. Taken from one of my live lightning sources this illustrates a considerable amount of residual data rather than the snapshot I gave you a couple of days ago.
My new PC build is coming along fine although I had forgotten what a laborious task it is moving from one machine to another. Now I know how hermit crabs must feel.
The number of dead bees I've seen in the garden concerns me greatly, apparently the carnage is down to parasitic mites. Whilst twitchers in Norfolk might be delighted with yesterdays spectacular appearance of a European bee-eater somehow I don't think the apiculturists and the bees themselves will be best pleased.
