Monday night is aerobics night. Not for me though, for Anne – surely some mistake?

Tonight we cooked a chicken while Anne was out (she gave me precise instructions) and it turned out right – seems to be a question of getting the oven hot, putting the chicken in, opening the oven 30 minutes later, spooning the fat, which has seeped out of the unfortunate bird, back over it, closing the oven door and then waiting for Anne to come home and finish it off, cook some broccoli and potatoes and serve, while I buy stuff from e-bay...

In Anne’s absence, Dr Prog called. Today he was in M&S buying some Euros for a trip to Majorca this weekend and who should he bump into but Mr Jon Anderson of Yes waiting for his wife to come back from buying some stuff...

Clearly the good doctor was still in shock – either from meeting one his all time heroes, or from the fact that said all-time hero was frequenting Marks and Spencers...

He’s coming round tomorrow night to lend me a 21 CD box of Haydn’s complete string quartets...

Yummy...

That's Dr Prog who's coming round tomorrow by the way, not Jon Anderson...

Elsewhere, rather amazingly, Google has today agreed to by Youtube for $1.6 Billion....

Expect a feeding frenzy anytime soon from all the copyright holders of stuff illegally posted on the Youtube site which, let’s face it, is a damn site more interesting than most of the embarrassing pish on there from people using it for what it was designed for – posting up embarrassing, pish, home made videos...

Spooks was good again and once more a major character appears to have left the show...

Highlight of the Day : Spooks (again)
