70% cocoa

Tuesdays. Great things happen on Tuesdays, there's no need to be afraid. Wednesday is just around he corner. Time for porridge?

I saw two films yesterday, one after the other. It's a peculiar way to spend the day really (and can't really be called work, any more than playing records can). As I reclined into my large, tilting seat with a large coffee and the lights dimmed my main concern was where on earth the next screening was. Fortunately Mark Kermode was on hand to point one of his large hands in the right direction. So I spent the morning underwater with Jude Law in a submarine and the afternoon with Paddington Bear and Hugh Bonneville being Mr Brown and Nicole Kidman being a modern day Cruella De Ville. Hugh will be with us soon.

Today we'll groove awhile in the company of top comedian chap Marcus Brigstocke who's off on tour and always good company. And how about songs for the terrifying prospect of the CHOCOLATE SHORTAGE which Rebecca warned us about yesterday. Rising prices and a global cocoa shortage are spelling trouble for chocoholics (this will never happen obs but run with it) so serenade us please with your choc shortage songs. Choc chunes indeed.
