Many thanks to everyone who gave me feedback after my request for same on this blog’s first anniversary.

In the fevered run-up to this Thursday’s UK General Election, and with political rhetoric ringing in my ears, I’m happy to announce that I have been re-elected leader of this blog, with a mandate which clearly shows that the electorate is satisfied with my policies. Sustained by Bob’s cooking, I will do my best to live up to your expectations as we go forward. And now please remind me to switch off my radio mike.
