Gio Update: For those of you who have emailed to ask how Gio is getting on, he went to the vet today who is very pleased with his progress.He is managing not to keep licking his wound and stitches and is now walking around a little but, albeit on three legs. The stitches will come out next Thursday. The vet seems to think he may be enjoying the extra attention he is receiving...

Gio -
The short-term answer is chocolate
Keep cultivating those sad brown eyes...
Jon Worth must be bonkers. It was Ken wot put £30m of our dosh in Icelandic banks - when he was mayor of London.
Iain, when will the Nigel Farage interview be up? Cheers. :P
Go Gio!
The Farage interview was for Total Politics and will be in the next issue, out on 21 October. However, there are a couple of extracts which I may post here which may not go in the magazine. Watch this space.
Who put Kent's £50 million in the Icelandic bank? I was pleased that Dimbleby prevented Denham from spouting the party mantra again. Its time he took control and prevented continual party political broadcasts on QT.
What's Gio's view on the Icelandic financial crisis? Does he know which way the Dow will go tomorrow at 230pm?
Good news on Gio. I know what it's like to have poorly dogs. You must be relieved.
Shouldn't he be wearing a lampshade?
The pic was taken before his op. He wears a lampshade when no one is with him. Luckily he seems not to even want to go near his stitches anyway.
2. Danny Finkelstein recommends ten blogs to read during the financial crisis. What, not this one?!.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very droll Iain, given your ignorance on anything connected with the economy.
My best to Gio and here's hoping a swift recovery!
