   Good gravy, some rash promises there Mr M

   I shall look forward with baited (or is that bated - pedants feel free to respond) doodah.

   Now why is there a next button already? how many blogs am I going to find...

   it's bated - yes, I too am a pedant, although usually by the time I get to look at a lot of this stuff I'm too tired to bother.

   How many Eleanors will e-mail trying to claim the prize? Keep us informed as this is decidedly uninteresting.

   Are probation officers allowed to broadcast the identity of their charges on national radio blogs? I think not. Come off it Eleanor, you made that up didn't you?

   Oh - I've had the curb your maliciously fast tendencies with this one. Can't help being a fast woman. After all, it's nearly Friday.

   There that should have spun the time out a bit.

   Well done, Eleanor. I think the judges made the correct decision on this one. Those of us who merely googled shamelessly never deserved the win. We will expect a 300 word precis of the book and detailed account of the signatures as soon as you receive it. In fact, perhaps you could photo the frontispiece; stick it to a postcard; send it to PM; and then Lissa could image it and post it up on the blog. That would have a pleasing circularity.

    I didn't google shamelessly, I made up my own Pervez with a story which had a beginning, middle and end. I think. I daren't look at it now, remembering what mood I was in yesterday.

    andyc - well it's very american, but since I seemed to P*** our own american off so sincerely, then, what the hey!

    I don't think you should take it all on your shoulders Valery - I'm sure we all contributed to the flouncing off of the token American. I'm afraid I'm not prepared to stop being silly for anyone. Not even George Clooney. Well, OK, maybe George Clooney. Or Johnny Depp. But then, why would George or Johnny want me to stop being silly?

    I'll just sit and think about that for a while.

    "Sigh".

    Aperitif,

    Forget Clooney, he doesn't eant you to be you.

    And (I am lead to believe) Mr Depp is v. nice. He may even join you in some silliness or other

    I'm taken aback. The last thing I remember winning was a goldfish at Barnet Fair in 1962. And I don't think they are allowed to give them as prizes any more.

    Now I must get back to work supervising more.....pervs.

    Eleanor - get yourself to the Names blog!

    You have many dopplegangers straining to grab your prize.

    I won a plastic beetle once where you had to put all his bits together, that was in a tombola. I always do a tombola when I see one, but have never since won anything.

    What happened to the goldfish you won?

    The goldfish got ill. I took it back but the fair had gone. I've never really got over it. Probably that's why I became a probation officer. Maybe winning the book will help with the emotional healing, after all these years. I'll let you know.

    Though I daresay no-one will come back and read this as there was talk of not regressing the other day. I may repeat this elsewhere

    The CEO at HSBC says that other banks will follow their example and start charging £10 per month to lower income customers for banking services. He is right and soon OAPs and unemployed will have to cope with charges which will be imposed by the most insatiable monetory appetites in our society. David Cameron says he wishes to champion the lower income groups but I have heard nothing from him criticising HSBC. Gioven the parlace state of pary finances I would guess they are all in hoc to the banks and we can say goodbye to democracy
