This evening I shall be mostly eating...

I argue strongly that cake is an important part of a healthy balanced diet*. Likewise pudding. But thanks to a series of garden parties and a wedding, cake and wine made up my main food intake between Wednesday and Monday, so I felt it was time for a change. Tonight is rather more skewed towards vegetables, plus pasta. Oh, and gooseberries with fromage frais for pudding.

Meanwhile I shall be watching Newsnight tonight. Though I do hope that despicable as the Milly Dowler angle is, it is not overlooked that the NoW broke the law in hacking anybody's phones, that they didn't only distress the Dowler family but impeded a murder investigation, and as for the bribed police officers... Oh, and that it absolutely is not all down to Rebekah Brooks and thus nothing to do with the rest of News International.

*I argue this when I am being serious, too.
