According to 5 live Vodafone have just said that they are so overloaded that they have had to implement a protocol to deal with it - hence all the problems.

It is believed that the mobile phone networks have been shut down to pervent them potentially being used to coordinate or detonate any attacks.

Just to let you know.

After the recent explosion on the London Underground (caused by a power surge - more details here ) I would just like to check that all you London-based folks are OK. Are you all OK?

Go look! Keep an eye out! Let me know when and where it is on! Sit back and watch me squeal to a stupid extent!

I have come over all unnecessary.

Time to go and calm down, I feel.

Does anyone fancy a trip to see Theatre of Blood at the National Theatre?

Date to be decided depending on who it up for it!

Edited to add After diary consultation, the weekend of 20th August is the only one which is available and that I can make! So I will be going that weekend, who fancies joining me?

An unsettling start to a Monday morning for me. The first conscious action of mine every morning (after falling out of bed) is to turn on the radio in the bathroom. This morning I was greeted by the news headlines (at the wrong time) followed by an announcement that there would be a change in programming due to the strike.

I feel out of touch! What is going on in the world? Where are the racing tips? What about the FTSE index? Is it going to affect mortgage rates? Where is Blair off on holiday this year? Will it be controversial? What is the progress of the Harlequin bugs and are they being beaten back in the war with our ladybirds? ARGH - bring me back John Humphries and Ed Stourton! I need the dulcet tones of Brian Perkins and Andrew Marr to get me jump started in the mornings! I feel like an engineer without coffee! I cannot persuade my brain that it is Monday, it thinks that it is OK to still be asleep - were it not for Listen Again, this entry would have been meaningless babble!

I just feel lucky that I pulled it together enough to be wearing the pre-requisite amount of clothes for decency.

Getting spam from someone who has the same name as someone I work with (hence opening it) when the only text in the email is "Steve Cook"

OK, so there is an "e" missing to make it from someone I know about someone I know, but close enough to be slightly odd.

Let me know if you want any of these, I am going to ebay the rest of them over the next couple of weeks...

Just drop me an email if you are interested in any of these!
