What an exhausting week. One relaxing holiday, followed by instantly undoing it all with a 50-hour work week, both of us catching a nasty cold, the tumble-dryer breaking down and the right indicator on the car becoming twitchy so I have re-plan my commute around a route that involves exclusively turning left.

I found a collection of old clips from my iPod, though - purely because it made me laugh more than anything this week, here is Jonathan Ross desperately trying to illustrate the word "Sonic" to ex-cricketer David Gower and Lord Jeffrey the Archer.
