Good morning Blog citizens, welcome to the week. Not a bad weekend all in all for yours truly. Saturday I was interviewed by Mr. Andrew Collins for BBC 6Music. Arrived at the studios early so that Panic would not be allowed to enter the proceedings. Found there to be no-one on the reception desk, doors locked, no lights on. Stood outside for 15 minutes or so, until I could alert a grown-up to my predicament. After some indoor waiting around, I was shown to a small room by a helpful chap, who handed me a pair of headphones and informed me that the appropriate folks would be 'Dialling me up as and when'. Helpful Chap then ran off at top-speed to present the news on local TV. My thanks to him.
I sat and stared at a grey wall, listening to the amplified sound of my own increasingly shallow breathing in the head-set for 20 minutes or more. Several calls were made to yet more grown-ups, each growing in fractiousnesss. Panic entered the proceedings. Eventually, I'm happy to report, contact was made and an effortless conversation about the finer points of Popular Culture was broadcast to the nation. Result.
This morning I have swum like a juvenile dolphin and am supercharged with positivity for the coming week. Onward.™
