   Oh at long last -- This is great! I'm so pleased to hear it -- I feel there aren't nearly enough ways to get news throughout the day, and I really don't want there to be a moment in any of my day, waking or asleep, when I can't discover what someone who thinks him/herself the guardian of such things has deemed newsworthy. If I can't get to my radio/TV/newspaper/internet/pager or any of the other things that yatter away at me all day then this will come in really useful. Brilliant.

   For crying out loud!

   I don't want to take a p*** in my tumble drier either ((C) Mark Watson).

   Oh dear, are they making you promote all these lovely services so that Auntie can make enough money to do the upgrades to the blog that we've been hearing about for a few months?

   Eddie - are you on commission? First it is urging us to call the listeners’ log at 8p/min and now you are telling us how we can download news on our mobiles at an an unspecified cost. Not another premium rate scam is it?

    Eddie:

    I don't have a mobile, but one of my co-workers here has one made of little metallic elephants which twirl around over her head in the updraft from the PC vents.

    Would that do?

    I spend about 5 hours one evening cutting and pasting bits of paper, card and string to make a 'mobile' phone for my little god daughter, with bells on and everything...

    RJD (14) Yes, it's symptomatic - sadly, my name is spreading at the same rate as other bits of me. ;o(

    But Gilligilligillianianianian surely the spreading of other bits of you - your charm, wit and general joie de vivre - is not something to be sad about. Is it?

    No Anna, I wasn't a policemn - I was a policeman. You really shouldn't diminish me as a man. Your rejection hurt me enough at the time, you know!

    Forgive me RJD, I just can't use the word "m*n" without getting all excited, so I sought to use a calming contraction. This is no way reflects upon your masculinity, I assure you. It's your fault I have a problem, actually -- ever since we met I've known what m*n really means.

    I'm off for a lie down.

    In the back of my brother.

    Anna - "In the back of my brother" - naughty again! But no matter - you have made me very, very happy. Do you like butternut squash?

    RJD - what kind of tangent are you on now?

    I do, RJD, but only in its true unadulterated form. No chopping or mashing for me. Could you fetch me one? Would you mind donning a Policem*n's uniform while you're at it? There's a good chap.

    Val, he's on a very masculine tangent, don't stop him when I'm enjoying it so much.

    Anna - Good morning from the Belfast office.

    As you know I never leave home without one - butternut squash that is.

    As for the Policem*n's uniform, I'll see if I can get done for speeding again on the way back and buy one of a Constable. My own, as you will remember, was taken away and shredded after that last incident!

    Ah, you rotten imposter. And there was me thinking that it was the real Anna Ford who I proposed to all those years ago! I'm nearly speechless. In fact I am spe. . .

    So what do I do with this butternut squash then?

    Oh RJD (27), do you really need a suggestion...? ;-)

    I do so like exotic squashes, Appy, but a nut squash is my favourite ...

    For some reason, the mods seem to think I'm being abusive. Whoever heard of abusive squashes?
