The Concorde is in the top 10 surely?

Man oh man, those froggies fought tooth and nail for that "e" on the end.

Magnificent beast without a doubt, I wonder how many mpg it did, or was it gpm ?

How could such a beautiful creature as the Concorde not have a French name?..It it had been a fat bird it could have had an English one though

I had no idea how much trouble that "e" had caused in real terms.

Now if E=MCxMC, how much would that be in MPG ?

I want to write all night, I'm all buzzed up, after the Show, but I have a meet at Heathrow at 0930, & I have a kip overdraft which I must address. I have so much stuff I want to write about, it's been some fortnight.

Tonight's Guests were Mother Hen & Mathilde, & they were simply splendid. I was a bit worried Mathilde would be quiet, shy, a bit reserved, but she opened up a treat & was very entertaining, smiled a lot, looked at ther camera, chatted freely, lovely. MH, of course, is an experienced TV performer, from his Late Night Poker days, & he still does commentary work on it. If you missed them, it's repeated all day tomorrow (Thursday).

Mathilde was delighted that her friends in Paris had watched the Show on t'internet. I think she'd love to do the Show again.

OK, better go. Pick up a sarnie, a cup of "Motorway Coffee", & I'll be at my Hotel in 15 minutes. I slept 9 hours straight last night, after the most stressful of days. It will be 6 hours maximum tonight.

Thursday I'm going home, & may play DTD.

A few pics from the enchantingly lovely Nottingham Arboretum.

I've spent three afternoons there in the last fortnight, & an hour there with Tom on Sunday. He's incredibly good company in these sort of places, he knows so much.
