Has to be one of my all time faves, but the thought of rediscovered tracks with all new lyrics and vocals makes me feel queasy. It's a classic, don't mess with it.

Bizarrely, the film director Paul Greengrass was on the corner of Blackwater Street and Melbourne Grove yesterday at about 6pm.

Yay - I won! Do I qualify for the Champions league or something?

After this election I'm really going to miss the constant leafleting, phone calls and door-stop visits from the lib dems. I've never felt so popular.

100!

Getting exciting at the top of this league, with just 4 gameweeks to go! Come on Zindedine Sydenham!!!

It's not a patch on the next two installments m'lud, you're in for a treat!

Fire - Arthur Brown

Back For Good was followed up by Never Forget which is also pretty special!

Do they actually taste like Haggis or is it just a Haggis-shaped generic vegetarian meat-a-like?

With the Thumb Guard the first week was particularly hard as thumb-sucking was how she managed to get to sleep. She pretty much had to re-learn how to settle herself at night, which meant several late nights. You have to be tough with yourself as it's very tempting to remove the thumb guard for a bit of peace and quiet of an evening. Worth it in the end though, and I really think it's boosted her self-esteem and made her a lot more talkative.

Our 3 year old was an agressive thumb-sucker, so much so that the dentist warned that she was damaging her palette and would potentially need surgery on her jaw in later life. She was really keen on the idea of not thumb-sucking so we ended up buying one of those Thumb Guards (www.thumbguard.co.uk), they're quite expensive but ultimatley a hell of a lot cheaper than a lot of orthodontic work. It looks quite draconian but she was actually pretty proud of herself whilst wearing it. She had it on all the time for 2 weeks and then just at night for another 2 weeks and it really did the trick.

Eddie Izzard, shame on you sir.

*waves down at Declan from the dizzying heights of second*

Shelter wins too. ?30,000 raised for them.

100! I win!

They did it!

Part of the whole Xfactor product is that the winner always gets the Christmas number 1. If that doesn't happen this year then it ever so slightly damages the brand. Surely that has to be a good thing? Even if it is water off a duck's back to Cowell & co.

Here he comes, old *Ebeneezer* himself.

Quite funny and only 29p on Amazon: http://bit.ly/rage-amazon

Bring out the Gimp.

Just finished The Girl Who Played With Fire. A cracking read, I'm already itching to get hold of the next in the series. Currently reading a bizarre japanese book lent to me by a colleague - Almost Transparent Blue, in which nothing actually seems to happen.

I think it's more the Channel 5 kids TV variety. "mamma-mee-mee-mee-mee-mee-mee-more-milk-shake!"

Go on then, have it...
