Putting Hay to bed...



I saw Rory McGrath in the bookshop at Hay... I'm not certain why, Pen ready- no books, camera crew lurking. (He told me they had ran out...)


I've uploaded another couple of Geldof & Harry Hill video snippets, you can find them in amongst my uploads here.

On the subject of videos, those of us who follow Welshcakes Limoncello probably assume, as I do, that Sicily must be lovely. It came as a shock, therefore, when I saw this Video from Sean Gabb, the well known outspoken Libertarian.

Temporary capital of culture

We've been on holiday, down in the English/Welsh Borders.
I'm blogging this from Hay on Wye, the second hand book capital of Europe, for their celebrated literature festival. (My first sniff at ethernet since we left home).

...and what great icon of cultural delight did we go to, I hear you ask?

HARRY HILL!

To be fair, he does have a book out, a rather odd Children's story called Tim the Tiny Horse.

Here is Harry signing David's copy. We hadn't the heart to tell him we got in the discount shop in Hay!



Karen has returned home, leaving us boys to play. Woo Hoo!

Karen, David's favourite ice cream flavour remains blackcurrant.

UPDATE: More of Harry Hill HERE.
