*This may not make sense to you until you've watched HIGNFY tonight.



And yes, as you may have guessed, I was at the recording tonight It was a bit long, but our throats were dry from laughing at the end. Interesting - I still can't get over the 'look how small everything is!' feeling in a TV studio, especially HIGNFY. Although I can predict the warm up person with remarkable accuracy now... there will always be one gag about Media Studies, guaranteed!

Sean Loch was on presenting duties, and they obviously had a boom time with the Prescott \ Hewitt \ Clarke triple whammy. Hislop went on a tirade against sleaze finishing triumphantly with 'fat twit' to which there was immediate and warm applause. Oh, and if you don't want to know who actually won, then you're living on a cloud, cause everyone knows Merton always wins

Same time next week!

Right, I have to plan for my amazing trip to far away lands. Slight crisis when I realised 3 hours on a coach was equivalent to a whole Lord of the Rings film, but I consoled myself by realising that there might well be hobbits in Birmingham anyway.
