Missed all the Budget Day fun due to real life being a merciless bastard. Catching up now, but it's not the same. All those priceless snipes I'll never make, now. Tragic.

The OBR leak is a dead cat to take the heat off Apple’s disastrous Real Love remix.

Here’s my CHRISTMAS GIFT TIP. You can buy all Michael Palin’s books and DVDs and suchlike off his website, and he signs and dedicates the item for no extra charge. Don’t say I don’t give you nowt. (I did this for my dad, and he didn’t notice the autograph on his Ripping Yarns.) themichaelpalin.com

If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.
