By now I would have expected interest in Unsung Unsaid to have flatlined but the truth is there still hasn't been a single month where sales have dipped into single figures. Only 13 last month but the Syd and Nick show just keeps on rolling. 764 sold now. #vindicated

Danny Boyle and Richard Curtis set to make four films in which Sam Mendes does not exist. #needswork

The giant crows that terrorise our street have been stepping in paint again. Either that or it's some weird remake of Blair Witch Project. (Also possibly involving crows.)

I am 109 years old and have just discovered that Stevie Wonder isn't actually singing Chevrolet at the end of Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing.

Manchester United and Tottenham limbering up for El Crappico with identical score lines. It's hard to separate them with a cigarette paper at the moment.
