I was meaning to post a lot of stuff
today, and things rather ran away with me.
Already spoken to Mr Bongs - he was great as always. And my chat with Jonathon Porritt about the Severn Barrage was interesting. He had just come in out of torrential rain in central London - got soaked riding between venues on his bike, apparently. I suggested getting a car but....
The bit I'm most looking forward to at the moment features Hillary Clinton - cackling.
In the absence of anything else, here's another email we've been sent. In the subject line: "Be honest to me"
"Dear Friend,
My name is Cox Peter Jnr, a resident of Spain and an attorney to Late Mr. Nelson Lawrence, he was an oil dealer in Saudi Arabia, he died in German hospital along side with his two kids by a car crash.
He left behind legacies and estates in Espanol since 2002, I have been trying to reach the relatives of my late client but all effort proved abortive, if you can assist me as a foreigner to apply to the bank as his next of kin beholding the sum of $60.2MUSD. According to records only his relatives can make withdrawal of the fund of my late client's account in the Spanish Bank. Please if you are interested to assist with this deal, feel free to contact me as soon as possible.
Please email me at your earliest ocnveinence for more details. I will like to know if you can help me with this, since I could not locate the heir to my client's asset and estate. I am waiting for your prompt response to enable us proceed in this opportunity. i have mapped out our sharing strategy, 40% will be for your kind help."
We've sent him something about why we deserve the money, in fewer than 200 words.

Was that $60.2m or $50.2
Yep
Just been 502ed again - without even trying to submit a comment. Is this some kind of record?
There are some great web-sites from which you can sign up your new friend Cox Peter Jnr to all sorts of e-mail notifications of competitions, special deals etc. (not that I would want to suggest that anyone should ever actually do this)
May I just say, how little I am missing the Twittering thing?

... and unrelax because I've just been 502d again. Oh, I GIVE UP!!!!!!
Refering to Mr Porritt's proposal for a Severn Barrage, there are already 4 Nuclear Power stations on the banks of the Severn estuary. Wouldn't it be much better to build 3 more? That would produce the same amount of power, be far less damaging to that unique environment, and probably cost far less!

Subtle, Mr Mair, Subtle...

Oh Eddie, that must be the same person who kindly wrote last week to notify me of my win on the El Gordo draw. Not that I'd bought a ticket, mind .....
Do I have the word "idiot" tattoed on my forehead? I don't think so.
Can you tell us what you wrote in less than 200 words. I presume there is no way Cox Peter Jnt will give you his bank details so we can milk his account dry?
Did I miss read that and it was less than three words and one was off.
Ooh! A 419!
Nice to see they're still doing the rounds - makes a change from people advertising male impotence drugs or inviting me to buy shares in an obscure US company...

Oh another one of those e-mails! I get about one a week to my home e-mail. By my reckoning I should have banked about 227million by now........
