One more cooked breakfast and I'm done. Healthy living and outside broadcasts don't really go together but it's been a fine start to the day A lot of crispy bacon has been consumed since the weekend but it'll be back to the blueberries tomorrow (which may well be mouldy and the yoghurt past its best but at least there won't be a baked bean in sight).
Yesterday's hot tent action was tip-top with more DT bloggers in attendance. Tim Vine a particular highlight. If you missed how he got Jeremy blamed for a school prank-he got caned!- do listen back or check the podcast. It is first rate. And then Michael Gambon. Nervousness abounded as we weren't sure whether he'd make it or not, followed by relief and applause as he took to the stage. And thank heavens I remembered that it was Richard Harris he had replaced as Dumbledore otherwise that could have been tricky.
Today We can offer you Russell Kane's confession, Sean Hughes and Gyles Brandreth, Hardeep Singh Kholi, Rory Bremner and live tunes from The Feeling. Hopefully we bow out in style.
And FESTIVAL oldies should ease us through to the finishing line. The festival season seems to go on for most of the year and this weekend has a whole load more (including at least 5 here in Edinburgh). So tunes please!
Have a pleasant and poised Thursday, see you after 5.
