The new set of recording dates for The Now Show have been announced, does anyone fancy trying to get tickets? It's a random draw type arrangement and we'd have to enter by next Friday. The recordings are on Thursday nights in London, which is not ideal for me, but probably doable.
Voting! My polling station was not where I thought it was, but this meant that I ended up having a lovely circular walk through Cotham in the sunshine, so that was ok. There weren't many other people there when I did find it, which is rather worrying. Also alarming: the fact that the BNP were right at the top of the (incredibly long) European election ballot paper. Stupid alphabet, gave me a scare. Anyway, I resisted the charms of the Cornish Independence party and the Pensioners' Party, and voted Lib Dem. I usually do: in Cheltenham, it was pretty much them or the Tories, though the Monster Raving Loony Party made a good showing. But having investigated a little more they have a few policies I like (and some not so much), especially the use of the magic words "proper public transport system". YES PLEASE, I WOULD LIKE ONE OF THOSE.
Currently (re)reading The Three Musketeers (yes, inspired by listening to The Church and the Crown) and it is just so much fun! I really didn't get it the first time round, but now I love it. So funny :D
Whee, Sue Perkins is on tonight's News Quiz! She's great, I have liked her ever since she was half of Late Lunch with Mel and Sue.
