2006 — Day 38 - this really won't do
It's after 1 a.m. and no diary entry. Tut. Tut. But I've only just finished recording the repeat of the Morgan Spurlock programme about the American tele-marketeer working in Bangalore for 30 days to see where his out-sourced job had ended up. Fascinating.

There is none, which means I can fall back on the normal UK whinge about the weather, of course. But it's Monday, it's wet, and I don't have to go to work. To quote from the closing lines of comic genius Donald E Westlake's 1970 masterpiece9 The Hot Rock:
