I'm not a tedious bastard, I'm an, uh, anorakpunk.

• Please take the time to send an email saying "meep." I did, helpfully including my address and phone number.

• The Daily Mail may be a vile hateful cesspit, but their photo stories are great. Storms last weekend.

Lunch today with nyecamden (he had turkey salad, I had chickenoid fillets, chips and mayonnaise descended from wood glue. And it was NOM.) and a bit of a wander around Bloomsbury. Heartwarming card in the window of Gay's The Word: "I don't have Tourette's. You're just a cunt."

Freda is feeling better, so we'll see how she goes at the hospital. Tomorrow will be long and tiring.

I have come home from work exhausted and ready for bed at 9:30pm. I have turned into my father.
