Some of your planes won't go up

Jilly - even though she is now working for someone else - proves she still has her eye on the ball by pointing out that she couldn't find any reference to the 79 rules of engagement I mentioned yesterday on google. I was of course referring to the 76 rules of engagement that the political parties all agreed to prior to the first TV debate. Who needs 79 rules in any case? That would just be ridiculous. The last 3, which they obviously dropped, were only to do with who makes the tea, if it comes in cups or mugs and whether biscuits would be provided before or afterwards.

I know I should go out for a run now but I don't want to. I'd much rather just sit here doing this. Is that a good enough reason not to go? I know I'd feel better for some exercise. And I'm gradually coming to the conclusion that you only get to feel good in life after it's hurt somewhere along the way.

Peter St Clare - our man in Cannes, who is out there to try and get some interest in the Lenny Smallman Music Show, is possibly stuck because of the volcano. Some of your planes won't go up.
