Hats off for the Hero of the Hudson River.
What a guy...
... lands a plane, with a hundred and fifty odd on board, in an ice-cold river with NO ENGINES, EVERYONE gets out alive, no one even has any serious injuries AND he walks up and down the plane TWICE to make sure everyone's escaped safely.
I think the chap deserves a half a cold drink, don't you ?
Blown away by that story today.
Also, just in - went out with our old boss Dame Douglas last night.
We enjoyed fine food and good chat. She is now earning megabucks heading up a whole new wing of Universal music. Our loss has, indeed, been their gain. She is ace.
A new boss will be annonuced soon. I understand, well to be honest I know, there are some top class candidiates. Exciting times.
Tash is way heavy with unborn child nowadays. She is so ready to drop. She says it's beginning to get uncomfortable. I have tried to explain to her it used to be exactly the same for me after a night on the pints. She has so far failed to find sympathy with this rationale.
Hey ho there you go.
Have a great weekend and make sure you're here for Monday.
LOTS OF LOVE.
CLP.

One of our girls was in work getting so uncomfortable (couldn't sit/stand/lay down/anything) 2 weeks before she was due to go off on maternity leave last January. One of the older guys (incidentally not a dad, not that that matters) said 'she's having that babe tonight' and lo and behold we all came to work next day to find that Ryan Jeremy (named after Giggs and Daddy) had indeed made his appearance that night, 22 days early!

Agree re that pilot and so glad it ended well - think one person had broken legs but in the circs they'll probably still think they were lucky!
This just confirms all my fears of flying though!

And, Chris, I love you, I really do, but "she is so ready to drop" - what are you, 14?!

Yeah, I got into big trouble for telling the girlfriend's brother the same thing down the phone on the way to the hospital....
"Ready to drop.......I'll drop you on your head if you don't pack that in".
Bless her.
It's a slang saying. Bit like 'Bun in the oven'.
Mind you, my brother in law swears childbirth is a doddle compared to hitting a perfect round of golf.
I told him to duck after he said that in front of my missus......he didn't and was promptly hit on the noggin' with several sharp kitchen utensils.

To keep his cool and put all his know how and experience into practice just when it was needed most, wow. I've never been a nervous flyer, in fact I love travelling by plane so I don't think it will put me off but I can appreciate how much of a phobia it can be for some people.
Hope there is some news soon re DJ junior and that Tash and baby have a smooth delivery.
