Interesting story on the BBC News site about Cherie Blair who is writing her memoirs. She is refusing to resign as a judge even though there have been comments the memoirs are inappropriate for someone in her position. That argument is something I’m not really interested in actually, what I found remarkable was the way … More Bias at the Beeb?
The wife is back riding the Bullet Bus. I’ve mentioned this bus before, because in the absence of a sensible public service these private operators have stepped into the breach and created a service that is both cheap and convenient… surely a first for commuters? 🙂 Yet there is one small quibble.

It’s a bit of a worry that the picture I posted below was me as I am not some image forced through image morphing software! I’m not exactly a fresh faced youngster any more! 😀
You may have noticed a few changes on the sidebars, for example more adverts and a couple of new boxes dotted about. Nothing to worry about, just adjusting the ‘selling’ side in case someone decides an advert is attractive and clicks to find out more.
