Philip Schofield is in the news today - handing the PM a list of alleged paedophiles. 'Not proper journalism' according to a couple of MPs, well, what do they expect at that time of the day on ITV? It's like saying Newsnight doesn't have enough jokes. Of course, it's more stuff about who did what to who 30 odd years ago. I suppose we have to go though the motions, but nothing will become of it. If there's anyone living implicated they will probably wait until they're dead beofer publishing a report that says 'They're dead now'. The thing is, it was all my boyhood role models - Gary Glitter, Jimmy Saville, Dave Lee Travis etc. Not that I was enthralled by them, especially not Dave Leee Travis who I thought was an egotistical nerd, but they were part of the celebrity landscape. I did harbour fantasies about coming on stage like Gary Glitter, eyes bulging, milking the applause to the openeing bass drum sounds of 'Do you wanna be in my gang'.
It's the Woodhall Spa cyclocross race on Sunday which (I'm told) is a good venue, so we'll see. The last one at Hubbards Hills was good, but hard work. Hopefully it will stay warm, it was 12 deg C yesterday.
