May 24th lunchbox
BREAKFAST: Was in the gym at 6.44am this morning.... first time in a month. Returned to have a swell bowl of Cornflakes with semi-skimmed milk. THE WALK to WORK THE rain and wind tested by umbrella handing skills to the limit this morning. Down the Taff Trail and the home of Glamorgan County Cricket Club, Sophia Gardens, was looking particularly sad this morning. A cyclist waved as she passed me on the trail, turned out to be work colleague Anna Morrell . She later explained how she dreads passing pedestrians on the trail sporting i-Pods... good to get a cyclist perspective for a change! THE lunchbox: 1 plum 1 organic banana. 4 chicken sandwiches on granary bread 1 Toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt 1 slice of Chocolate Crunch made by Plugs of Trumpton PLEASE don't panic it's only a fire drill!

A podcast on the Welsh Forgetter of the Year. TO HEAR THE BARDS in ACTION CLICK HERE, DIOLCH! BREAKFAST: Very good bowl of Branflakes THE WALK to WORK. SUN was radiating as I ambled down what was a POSTCARDESQUE River Taff Trail this morning. Was i-Podless so had the full symphony of bird song, interspersed with the chimes of the Clock Tower of Cardiff Castle. THE LUNCHBOX 4 salmon sandwiches(tinned variety)with a hint of lemon juice. 1 plum 1 banana 1 Toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt. 2 Chocolate digestive biscuits. TRUST ME MY WIFE IS A MAGISTRATE. Biscuits went early, followed by the fruit then the sandwiches just before midday. Saving the yoghurt until later RANDOM THOUGHT 2021: THE opening of the first TESCO UNIVERSITY, where students are schooled in Tescology, is delayed after members of the ANTI-TESCO league chain themselves to supermarket trollies in the offices of the Vice-Chancellor, located at the end of the Frozen Food aisle of the new campus

I'm not stalking you...honest.
If I may be so bold as to make a personal observation?
It is refreshing to see that time, responsibility and the addition of the word "editor" to your job title hasn't really changed you.
Having read a few of the posts, its a bit like I've been transported back 8 years to the Western Mail's newsroom.
I would offer to pick your briefcase up for you as we're heading down to Cardiff on Thursday for a long weekend. But I'm not sure I'll be able to make it into Birmingham in the next few days.
Yes you have to be yourself... and this blog is just that!!!
Hope you are well. I see your dad often and he is a great character.
Thanks for the offer on that blasted briefcase!! Was on a course with Joanna from the Birmingham Post in Preston last week... all interesting stuff. I have come to the conclusion that the printing mafia is going to get "hit" bigtime by web 2.0
But two way interesting content will reign supreme and so there will always be work for journalists... even if it's back to pre-industrial like, but hi-tech cottage industries.
Good blog by the way

I think there's a "show us your eye" meme in here somewhere.
