And Billy Bragg (he must have been there at some point)

I hate Billy Bragg, I was forced to listen to the end of his set of rubbish songs then listen to him ranting at the crowd for not rising up to overthrow the capitalist system which he exploits in order to make loads of money and live in a massive mansion. The biggest hypocrite since bono...

Two of my friends tried to go to see him but couldn't get in the tent as it was utterly overcrowded!

I saw a bit of Brucie on the highlights. Can't say I'm a particular fan generally, but he's still got a pretty fab singing voice. He also looked genuinely moved that so many people turned up to see him.
Still wish he would bow out of Strictly.

William speaks very highly of you. He mentioned it over a couple of bottles of Cheval Blanc '61.

Bono on the other hand...well don't be waiting for an invite to his next party is all I'll say.

I suspect NDG earns more per word than you do for the whole thing - it probably helps focus the mind....

Still got tension headache that started last night (after working too much in the hot sun and probably getting dehydrated. Haven't had one for a while; and painkiller are refusing to shift it

Make sure you're keeping up a slow and steady intake of water.

Failing that, some rehydration salts tomorrow?

If your head ache are from heat and sun wouldn't water be the best remedy? Or something isotonic?

For a headache caused by dehydration, I recommend any homeopathic remedy diluted an extra 10 million to 1 with water. Drink about 3 litres of the mixture over a period of several hours, and you too will become a convert to the power of homeopathy.
