That poor girl was naked and had to be at a job interview in an hour.

• I highly recommend Radio 4's Bigipedia. It feels like browsing Wikipedia, in audio form.

• Bad computer shops busted. Three kinds of people run Windows: people who don't know the dangers, people who don't care, and people who prey on the first two.

• NotN: Microsoft announces handheld XBox; WHO declares swine flu an end in itself.

Saturday night was Dead and Buried at the Korsan Bar in Hoxton. Very nice venue, though not easy to find. Pics here. The F20 was utterly defeated by the blackness of the post-punk and I had to resort to flash; clearly I need an F200EXR, with its frankly insane ISO 12800, as soon as is humanly feasible. A snip at under 200 quid now! Oh well.

Big news is that redcountess is extending her Melbourne visit, to fix up her mum's house, spend time with friends she hasn't seen in twenty years and generally blow off steam. Please give her calls and emails and take her to pubs and stuff. Her return requires me getting a job to pay for the ticket ... we'll call that an incentive!

Freda's speech continues developing. Today she said a sentence! "Plane gone away." The speech therapy should come through by the time she gets her first in English. She can also now catch a thrown ball! We do finally have a dental hospital appointment for her and won't have to wait until she's three.

The job sucking continues apace. Interviews this week, including one courtesy a lead from hirez, who has earned many a *pint*.

Jolly nice date on Monday afternoon and evening with nyecamden. We visited Fettered Pleasures, a business of unquestionable decency and wholesomeness. I didn't find anything that made me go "ooh" (though they do stock Magnum condoms, only place I've found in London that does), but I do deeply approve of their existence and consider that they make the world a better place.

I plan to go out this Saturday night, to Vagabonds. I am by definition poor at present. Who can spare me a pint? (big drunk puppy dog eyes)

I'd be more tempted to rename the lolcat collection "HOT NAKED PUSSY PICS."
