    Had a nice Saturday afternoon. No pictures because the battery was flat.

    Nice walk through the City of London, over the wobberly bridge and up to London Bridge. Pint in the Horniman, which I haven't been in for years and it's still rubbish. They have a seafood and oyster show on (last day today). Nice bowl of paella to fill me up. Cracking class totty at Balls Bros.

    Then back up through the City, through Spitalfields market to Brick lane. Had another pint in the Pride of Spitalfields then wandered up Brick Lane towards soho where I managed to spend £300 on a prossie. It is the start of Brick Lane festival today. I've got work to do otherwise I would be there. It's highly recomended.

    Surely it is not up to PM himself to call general election - perhaps cabinet vote is necessary? Though Brown would not want to be seen as trying to avoid the election.

    El Gordo is working today... sharpening his knives, briefing his acolytes, planning more taxes, making up more lies about how he loves the English really...

    I hope blair calls a snap general election at the last minute just to feck up his plans. He might as well - most of his own party hate him anyway.

    That would classify as a nice Sunday. I'm stuck at home watching Basil Brush and ripping CDs into iTunes.

    Not programming?

    Don't tell me you're finally getting around to creating a business model

    Was going to, but I'm still a bit hung-over from last night.

    I've done my normal morning chores of making sure over-night stuff run OK.
    I've ordered some bits to get a second PC working here.

    I just can't face sitting here all day fixing up crap in the database. So I am going out. I think I am going to head into the City of London. Take a few pictures, grab a copy of the FT and head down to the river. If I get adventurous, I might even cross over to the dark side.
