Why is it so essential for some people to keep in almost permanent contact with others and give them a running commentary on their dull and mudane lives? I'm sure that in part this is due to the mobile phone, after all why else do you get to overhear (overhear is a little bit overstated - after all most of these people shout into the handset at the sort of volume you only need to be heard over an atlantic gale) conversations like "I've just left sainsbury's and I'm walking to the car, I'm on my way home and here's a complete list of everything I bought, what I would have bought if..." and so on. It makes you wonder if they make similar phonecalls at home "I've just left the toilet and I'm on my way into the kitchen" I can only assume that if you give these people video phones they'll be making films of their shopping trips and then posting them on their patently home made websites (imacompletetosser@crapweb.co.uk or something similar) to share the fun with the rest of their banjo playing hillbillie relatives.
If the report I've had from air traffic control is correct Mister Squeaky is due to land sometime shortly after midnight and will be released from questioning sometime in the late morning...so much for peace and quiet.
