I have been quite busy today but have found time to listen to our ex-PM Tony Blair explaining the Iraq War ... it's quite depressing actually ... he just can't say "sorry" for anything.

On a lighter note, a reminder of an old TV show I used to love (Yes, Prime Minister):

Jim Hacker (PM) :“Don’t tell me about the press. I know exactly who reads the papers. The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country. The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country. The Times is read by the people who actually do run the country. The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country. The Financial Times is read by people who own the country. The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country. And The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.”

Sir Humphrey Appleby: “Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Sun?

Bernard Woolley: “Sun readers don’t care who runs the country, as long as she’s got big ...” (The Sun is reknowned as the "topless" newspaper"). I think most countries have newspapers and readers like the ones mentioned above.

So pleased the weekend is here ... fun with friends in Oxfordshire! Yay!
