Lord Andrew

In other celebrity-related news, mrs househusbandnot and I were extremely entertained that one of the contestants on The X Factor referred to Andrew Lloyd-Cabbage-Head as "Lord Andrew" on the show the other night. Americans? Don't you just love how they just keep on being wrong. Not that I am at all biased because I had to explain what The Council Of Europe was to an American audience the other day. ("It's like, well you know, got 47 countries in it, and they, well, debate stuff, but none of it is legally binding, but it does means something, kinda, in a 47 country kind of way, and some of them are Dutch...")

Not a lot else today people. I finished Half Life 2 over the weekend with my brother in law's assistance. I am a deeply cheap date when it comes to X Box. I have been playing Half Life 2 since Xmas. My weekend success was accompanied to jeers of derision from mrs hhn on the other sofa, as her brother jogged through sections of the game that I have been stuck on for weeks. And he and I did a bit of Xbox Liveing, which is a bit odd and creepy playing games with complete strangers across the airwaves. In a vague pretence at having a life, the three of us did discuss going to the Rock Against Racism gig, but am glad to report that we didn't actually manage to get off our arses and hung around eating jaffa cakes and X Boxing and watching crap TV aka X Factor instead.

Anyone got any good ideas what I could buy my father in law for his 65th birthday btw? (And yes he has all the aviation simulation games and accessories he needs already. Darn, I've married into a gamegeek family. Excellent. )

Madam B here, I'd get your father-in-law a cock ring

Here's a present for your father-in-law: I saw a watch in the Evening Standard today. It's encrusted with sapphires, has a crocodile-skin strap and is made from steel salvaged from the wreck of the Titanic. However, it doesn't actually tell the time, only whether it's light or dark, which, unless you live in an Austrian cellar (which a surprising amount of people seem to) you probably know already. The makers say: "Anyone can buy a watch that shows time but only a discerning customer can buy one that doesn't show time." Unfortunately though, it's sold out. And it cost £150,000.

I've figured out who Madam B is. But her secret is safe with me. 'Cos it really doesn't matter any more...

Madam B here, agreed, it really doesn't matter anymore. Even though I only knew hhn vaguely from attending a few meetings he was at, I'm absolutely gutted, so is everyone I've spoken to in the SRH sector. He was a very popular man with many people respecting him and his work. No-one can quite believe it. So sorry mrs hhn, so so sorry.

PS - I'm not female!
