Woke up this morning slightly hungover, after spending the night drinking with Cliterati's foxy lawyer. He's attached but is more than happy to be described as foxy. Can't think why.

Turned on TV. Was watching BBC News 24. First story. 'Wheelbarrow racing is the hot new trend'. Second story. '2 minute silence to protest hedge laws'. Thought I'd woken up in a parallel universe. To make things worse, wheelbarrow piece obviously a PR plant - they even showed an advert which was apparently 'inspired' by this 'hot new trend'. Clearly, the silly season is upon us.

Have been mailing all my male mates cos New Woman are looking for Britain's top 100 sexy bachelors. A couple of attached mates have mentioned that they'd consider turning single just so they could say they were one of the 100 sexiest bachelors in the UK. Know someone who'd be good? Mail kate.turner@emap.com with your email address/contact details, his profession and preferably his picture.
