Well,ahem, moving on...

Simon Mayo|07:53 UK time, Thursday, 23 September 2010

Morning to all bloggers and I have no idea if I turned red last night in the Jilly Cooper interview though note some of you thought you could hear me blushing. What is the correct procedure when a 73 year old lady flatters you on air? I think pausing,coughing and moving on still takes some beating. Anyway it was great fun and look forward to my appearance in her next book.

Last night the team went out to mark the moving on of Pauline. She leaves on Friday as Rebecca returns from maternity leave on Monday. As Nigel was in charge it was a remarkably well run do with fine food and booze. I left Pauline, Matt, Rebecca and Nigel putting the world to rights at some ungodly hour. Half past 10 I think. It was the exhaustion of the Jilly Cooper interview I think. Anyway Nigel will be bright as a button today as he tries to do something interesting to a sea bass. Not a big fishy person really, but I have realised that in the right hands, anything can be sensational. Nigel has those hands.

And for songs today, let's celebrate National Cruise Week. 1.65 million Brits go cruising apparently so it's a CRUISE special today. Not Tom, not missile but BIG SHIPS. Thank you.

See you at the muster station at 5.05
