I've been a bad, bad blogger

It's been one of those periods when you mean to get your hair cut, and never find the time. You can catch me on BBC2's What The Papers Say tonight (Saturday) and, tart that I am, News 24's Head to Head tomorrow. I'm running in the Hastings half-marathon earlier on Sunday - the first five miles are uphill, so it's a challenge. One other thing........... 

Someone asked under the last heading what my definition was of moderating, given the comments I allow to appear. Well clearly by "moderating" I don't mean taking, say, a pro-Galloway comment and turning it into support for Ming Campbell. Even if I think that's what some people will do over the next few months. I have cut out a rather explicit joke, but I left in two Anti-Semitic comments from a "GK", simply to remind us of what's out there, and because it represents one small strain of e.mail that I do receive pretty constantly.

Good luck in the 21 km - do tell us your time.

I'd be interested to see any feedback on the the injuries?

I have to report that David was looking in good shape, if a little nervous at the start of Hastings half marathon today. He sailed up the first few hills out of Hastings in glorious sunshine into the Sussex Weald.

My comments were VALID, it's just that your victimhood mentality forces you to perceive legitamate statements as being a threat.

Accusing me of Anti-semitism is intellectual thuggary !
