EARLY TO BED AND...
...well me, once I'm awake, that's it - I'm up.
In fact if I try to stay in bed, I actually feel worse than if I get up and at it.
This morning I was down in the kitchen by six, looking at the beautifully fresh and frosted lawn in the most perfect of light. The autumn leaves on fire.
At my desk by six fifteen and then more research about a car I'm interested in. There's a big auction in London tomorrow and I don't want to get caught out.
I'm at my desk already because I have a meeting with the lawyers this morning and you never know what the traffic's going to be like. You always have to set off early just in case, and then nine times out of ten you end up with half a day to spare. That's today, not that I mind it's absolutely gorgeous out there.
Have a good one and I'll see you on the radio at the other end of it all.

Morning Chief!
I know exactly what you mean ... in bed by half nine last night, up around six and at desk by 8.20 (via Asda for some pastries) even tho I don't start "officially" til half nine!
Happy researching. Me? I'm STILL filing!! That'll teach me to have furry tonsils.

Ditto, ditto, ditto CtD and Mr CLP - only I missed out Asda and the pasties as I had time for a fry-up at home. Feet are jolly chilly now though so time for the hot air blower on.
I'm even toying with the idea of continuing to go to bed at the old time of 10.30 but now it's 9.30 and get up at 6.30, the old 7.30 and ... ok too confusing, you know what i mean,

Hiya Chris,
Good to see you so early! Don't want to be demanding or anything, but I always did prefer when you used to Blog early in the day!!
Well, of course it's freezing here too and I just cannot face the winter. I absolutely hate it. I am guaranteed to fall at least twice and will now have to live in my wellies - not a good look walking around the streets of Glasgow - fashion capital of the UK, after London!
Hey Ho! Have a good day everyone.

Love the idea of a full English brekkie. Hmmm .... Sunday morning methinks. Cheers for that!
I usually indulge in toast and homemade jam, but Mr Diva kinda cleared the breadbin out this morning with his work sarnies (see what happens when they do their own packed lunches ... ?!) so it was a Danish from asda. Very nice too for a change!
Everyone here's in a really good mood today - lovely!

Ello CLP And ALL Blog.... Blog..... Bloggers,
Bingo Star ere......
Errr also blogging.
On the RB/ JR thingy I wasn't gonna comment but as some ave i'll join in abit.
I like Jono R and The Brand, I think they are so funny and Russ in particular is unique in 'is style and could be such a funny comedian but as ave writted on the blog before, 'e ruins 'is 'umour with too much filth. It's one thing to joke abit about sexual 'appenings but all the time and completely pushing the boundaries is too much.
I was listening in me truck ter the RB show and I 'eard some of the comments and just thought myself that's bordering on sick. I don't know 'ow old Andrew Sachs granddaughter is and I certainly 'ope she's over 18 or the comments are outrageously sick.
I don't want to sound old fashioned as i'm not, a mean I used to find things like The Kenny Everitt Show very funny. But Mary Whitehouse did ave a very valid point. Nowadays there's just way too much violence and sex on national tv and the internet is playing a big part too.
It's a worry what children might be looking at on the internet.
Some things, people at work, have told me about what's on the internet... I just can't believe.
I think all this is what's contributing to all the problems in society today, slowly breaking down society.
Freedom of speech is good to a certain degree but not when it just keeps going too far.
A mean the things daily we hear on the news. Like yesterday a young boy kidnapped at gunpoint in Scotland and then left in Warrington. The events in america with Jenifer Hudson's family... I just can't beleive the evil that seems to be in this world nowadays. Killings of students by a another student with a gun.
Things like this never used to happen daily. They were very rare. But now weekly/ daily on the news!
Why are such things spreading? Where do these unbalanced people get their ideas from? I blame tv and the internet.
Everytime you turn on the tv in the evening people are killing each other. The problem is nowadays it's too realistic/ graphic. I used to watch things like westerns, The A-Team, James Bond and there's lots of killing there but it's done in more of a fantasy way, abit cleaner... cops and robbers style. But all these dramas on tv are just too realisitc, too deep, show too much blood and I think it gives people ideas. It's unhealthy such things going into everybodies subconsciousness on a daily basis.
For example if someone gets involved in a fight they might just use their fists like they did at school but if they've been watching something violet on tv - it's buried in their subconscious - on the spare of the moment they might copy what they've seen. It might sound crazy but I think it's a valid point. A mean why are motorists sometimes killing each other in road rage attacks?
I myself have been subjected to viloence on the roads many times - believe me it's scary the way some people are out there nowadays - the anger and aggression.
Remember the words of The White'ouse.... The Mary that is noot the Bush residence. Actually I can't remember 'er exact words but they were something like "there's too much sex and violence on tv"!!!!
Aye and remember the words of The Liam... "don't look back in anger" or was it The Noel?

same as you jen, just a fave line from a fave film.
However, it does remind me of a journey home from work around this time last year. It was nearing 9.00pm, raining buckets and trunks and most of my journey involves dark, winding country lanes. As I came out of one of the villages I noticed something crawling in the middle of the road. Being an eco warrior and also a complete wuss I slowed to make sure I didn't hit it, and saw it was a toad. As my journey progressed I saw more and more toads, and realised they were orf for a night of soggy passion at a lake in one of the fields. This was all well and good, until I ventured about half a mile up the road to be confronted with swarms of toads, giving the illusion of the road surface coming to life in a squelchy crawling kind of fashion. It was imposible to carry on with my journey without mashing them under my tyres, so again with the wuss thing I stopped driving. At this point there was oncoming traffic, that obviously did not have the same sense of concern for another living creature and you could actually hear the poor creatures popping as the cars drove past me.
It was truly, truly horrendous, and now I come home on a different route if its raining.
Croak.

Bingo #21: what a brilliant comment you made. I agree 100% with what you are saying - so many of society's problems today stem from what people see, hear and read. Of course, it has always been this way, but now we are able to access things we would never have been able to dream of, even just 10 years ago.
I have discussed with my daughter the danger of watching tv/dvd's or reading books/magazines which will distort her understanding of the real world. If we shoot someone in real life, this is not the movies - they are not going to get back up. Voilence is glorified and it is really disturbing, I think.
As for JR/RB, I adore them both. I am a JR fanatic. But they took it too far and it wouldn't do them any harm to have their wings clipped. Incidentally Bingo, the girl they were referring to is, apparently, 23 years old, but that is academic.
Anyway, just wanted to say I thought your post was brilliant.

NewC - I agree they "behaved like a couple of 14 year olds" and I think they overstepped the mark a bit.
BUT, I'm afraid I don't agree that "they totally and absolutely overstepped the mark."
It was late Saturday night on the radio. The two chaps involved are reknown for this sort of behaviour and I think if we curb their exuberance (and attempt to tame all other such situations) we risk throwing the baby out with the water.
I don't want to live in po-faced pc land - I'm not suggesting you do either - but I fear that's what we'll end up with if we take this too seriously.
They have both sincerely apologised to the Sachs families. I believe the producers involved in giving the go-ahead should also be made to publicly apologise and then I think I'd draw a line under it.
Unless, of course, Mr Sachs and his family can think up some more embarressing public humiliation for them!

I know there are many on here who adore him but not for me. His behaviour today with the press just shows the level of the man, not a humble bone in him. How easy is it to say sorry, it was silly, blah blah?

What gets me though is that only 2 people complained when the show was first broadcast but since Sunday 10,000 complaints have been made since it's become news... it's just people jumping on the bandwagon.
I dont think Brand and Ross should be sacked though... they''ll just go off elsewhere and get just as lucrative contracts and TV shows and such. Cut the value of their BBC contracts in half or something.
Friday Night with Johnathon Ross should be an interesting watch this week though.

Gingembre/Steve - prob the only female to agree but cannot stand Brand - spitting image of my brother in law in looks and attitude - bombastic and one to take centre stage whether you liked it or not. although b-i-law would certainly not be that crude. and JR should be ashamed of himself for letting himself get dragged in.
If the beeb halved their pay perhaps they could pay itv for Doc Martin and my fav person Mr Fry in Kingdom and others. Far more entertaining!
Rant over! sorry.

Haven't much to add on the RB/JR debate. Didn't hear it but what little I've read/heard, they sounded just like two teenagers who'd got out of control. Perhaps they should be treated as such and ignored.

Good morning,
We had snow yesterday too in the arctic climes of Kettering ,so not to far from Market Harborough.
RB/JR - A prank that went too far, but again I believe the blame lies with those that let it go out despite asking for Mr Sachs approval and it being declined.
However, what I think is unnecessary is the comments being made about the granddaughter. So she's a burlesque dancer, so she has some graphic photos on the internet, this does not mean that it is acceptable to receive such treatment. Some of the stuff I've read smacks of the early 80's court cases of sexual assault where most of the time the girl was 'asking for it' because she may have had a promiscuous past or dressed in a revealing manner. How women dress, conduct themselves or what reputation they may have should never mean that it is acceptable to publically disregard their feelings and those of their family.
MW, a!

Hiya
I think my car may be chitty chitty bang bang (other amazing cars are available) - it was raining heavily last night and the traffic was bad so I thought I would nip home the back way - big mistake - the car turned into a boat and floated me home - the waves were over the top of the car!
Then last night decided not to go to ELH after all die to the rain - best decison to make as the snow came down thick and fast and covered everything - this morning took the main way to work - it took ages and the car slipped around a lot - the things we do for work!
still in now and neededing a cup of tea!
RB/JR debate - they should both know better - they were rude and JR would hate it if someone said that about his girls when they were older! however the producers should not have aired the tapes - its as easy as that

From Q.C. Chambers And B. Allister Case Solicitors Ltd.
Today I, Quetin Cuthbert Chambers, acting solicitor for Bingo Star, have been asked on Mr Stars behalf to read a statement to the Chris Evans BBC Blog in order to say that Mr B. Star (one 'r') says he apologises for any upset caused in central London in the early hours of the 29th October.
Mr B. Star states he won't now be able to blog directly whilst he is in custody and he is innocent of any serious crime.
Mr B. Star also would like to say he will pass any information via one of his alledged friends but who he says is probally more just an acqauintance who will be able to blog for him.
Mr Star states later today he will issue full details of the incident last night involving an ice cream van to the blog later today via his friend/ acquintance.
Da... Das Vee...... Das Veee.. danya. Must mean something.
Thank you from Q.C. Chambers of Q.C. Chambers And B. Allister Case Solicitors Ltd - No Win - Not Free!
Mr Star also adds some post scripts..
B's Mum - He can not remember the joke he was going to write.
ChrissieS - Thank you - He is glad you liked his blog about tv/ internet filth/ violence. He likes reading your blogs to.
JenEwan - Thank you for your warmth - Hugs and kissess back to you. Mr Star says not that he's returning your kissess because he does not want them. He is returning new ones. Aka - The sentiment. He says he hopes you don't misunderstand him like most women do.
Prof Plum And ALL - Remember this advice Mr Star says : Don't phone The Sachs or you might end up getting the sachs!!!!!!
Anyone Else - Sorry if he missed you out - Please forgive Mr Star as he is under severe pain mentally and physically at present. He says thank you for listening. Sorry he means reading.

Morning.
I'm now offically bored with all the broohaaaahaaaaa over the RB/JR thing. 10,000 complaints? And how many of those 10,000 are regular listeners to RB's show? Yes, it went too far. Yes, they have apologised. But as said very sensibly above, the Producers who let the show go to air should be held accountable.
Busy day ahead. Gotta drag the abacus out - yep, it's invoicing day. Boooo!!

Whatever RB/JR said it would have gone unnoticed by the majority had it not been for the Sach's.
Sach's could have had a private word with the BBC. Instead it's all over the press.
Would you do that to your grandaughter?
If the BBC were to lose JR on TV it would be a great loss.

greyhounds - the couch potato of the dog world.
Yep, 2 walks a day, and then they will find the most comfy spot in the house, claim it for their own and snuggle down. Mine has only barked about 4 times in the 10 months I've had her. She is incredibly gentle, and very very cute. Some of them can't be homed with cats but mine is ok and gets on fine with my cat too. In fact she wants to be friends but the cat just walks away.
Can't recommend them too highly. Gorgeous gorgeous creatures, and so many of them need a new loving home after being mistreated/discarded once their racing career is over.

Anyhoo. Didn't there used to be a naughty corner? Somewhere next door? I think it should be re-established here.
I shall be in the corner clutching 1, a JD&Coke (other brands of cola available but mostly gopping) with no ice, and 2, a 'Get Out Of NC1 Free' card.
do not pass go
