I can’t imagine many people (or even any people) signing up for this, but you can now subscribe to podcasts of this blog using the Talkr button in the right-hand nav column, so long as you don’t mind hearing it in a robotic American monotone that bears no resemblance to my own Home Counties mumbling.

The recent JournalSpace crash has wiped most of the comments on my posts, just as it seems to have for most other users.

Firstly, a public service announcement:
From time to time I've had cause to mention that I'm a fan of the New Orleans Saints – don't ask why, I'm not entirely sure myself.
The Saints (true to form) made a slow start after Hurricane Katrina, with owner Tom Benson initially seeming to see it as an opportunity to [...]

And another period of ridiculous silence ensues…
Mostly the lack of posts is because of being back in full-time work, with the train-based commute adding another three hours of travelling to the working day.
