Apologies If I Haven't...

...Replied to your email, linked to your blog, moderated the comments properly or followed up on a tip in the last few days. As you can imagine, it's been a little busy and I have about 250 emails which I haven't been able to sift yet. Being out of action all day yesterday didn't help. Normal service will resumed over the next 24 hours...after a quick (or more probably slow) 18 holes this evening. Well, if I'm going to keep getting invited on TV programmes, I've got to keep the weight off, haven't I? Guido keeps refusing to appear on the media, so he's free to stuff himself and drink himself silly in his French hideaway. Lucky him...Anyone would think vanity was winning the day. Perish the thought. Everyone knows that like politicians and journalists, bloggers have no ego or vanity. No sirree.

    We understand, Iain.

    We would just love to see the results of the surveys you had on the left hand side of the page.

    Can you ask Guido to bring me back some Camembert and a couple of decent bottles of Bordeaux?

    You may not have an ego but I bet you've got a whopping great id. Nearly as big as John Prescott's.

    That's what we like about you: even when your politics or what you blog are pooh, there's a decent guy trying to come through. Possibly!
