Sniff and the Tears
Well astute listeners might have noticed a certain huskiness in the voice which deepened as the programme continued. It meant only one thing-the onset of a stinky cold. And here it is in all it's glory. I am squinting at the screen as I write this and will try not to sound too unhealthy come 5 o'clock. I always hope that the blessed echinacea will work its wonders but it seems to have been overpowered this time.
After 6 today the wonderful voice of Candi Staton. The woman who brought you "Nights on Broadway" and "Young Hearts Run Free" is singing on a new album called "The Mavis Project" along with singers like Cerys Mathews, Ed Harcourt and Sarah Cracknell from St Etienne.
More songs for politicians today (enjoyed the "Oh What a Circus" choice yesterday) and you can leave your latest ideas below. You can also help us choose our final song on the show. Today we need a Jazz showstopper to lead us into the hallowed ground of the new Jamie Cullum show. This can only be done on this site and the choice should appear as soon as we start at 5. Your cooperation is appreciated.
Meantime, I'll hit the vitamin C and see you at 5.05.

It's only about 40 minutes from home, but even so it was a VERY early start. So as far as I'm concerned it's nearly lunchtime....so why isn't the new blog up yet then, eh? eh?
It was a great show yesterday, and didn't the blogpoppets do well!

It's Babydriver time encircling and bisecting greater & central London and may not get broadband at the place I'm overnighting.

Drive carefully Katy. Rather you than me - the very thought of driving in London makes me feel queasy.
Spike - I hope your son doesn't read this blog. Or it's not going to be a surprise any more....

So, I promised myself I wouldn't get obsessive about jobs today, and what do you know, by the 2nd cup of coffee at 8.15 am I've subscribed to another 2 jobsites and applied for 6 jobs! Although I have got stuff to do today .....
We're having some friends round for dinner on Friday night. I know what I'm doing for mains and dessert but not sure about the starters so think it's time to raid the cookery tomes in the study for inspiration. Any ideas?
Theme: Spanish
Guests: Fussy!
Mains: Paella with seafood, chicken and chorizo
Dessert: Choc mousse (I wanted to joooooz it up with chilli but was advised not to ...!)
Dishwasher and Washing Machine in full flow, may tango with the iron later.
Hmmmmmmmmmm.
