Oh yes, excellent apology. Did you spot the badges they all had on their jackets?
Stig was brilliant, and they managed to not get chased out of Russia! 
Only downside was SIARPC, which is 9 times out of 10 dull.
Oh, what was the squirrel about in the news bit? I was buffering and had to reload iplayer... so, I jumped from Russia to squirrel.
Didn't spot their badges 
What did they say?
They showed a squirrel clip to give them time to get over to the News chairs, as they were standing in the wrong place. Silly I know
They were Chilean flags. Subtle, but a nice touch.
Ah... I see. Never noticed the chairs. I'm going to have to pay better attention next Sunday.
Heh heh they don't get on with Argentina.
Oh Hitch.... meant to ask you. Have you ever seen the Walking Dead? Thinking of starting it. I know you're knowledgable on all things spooky
It's meant to be good. I haven't seen it as zombies leave me cold. Except Reg, I do love Reg.
Ta. I'm not a zombie fan either but I need a series to keep me going until G.O.T. and Mad Men return.
Reg? Who he? 
Constable Reginald Shoe, Ankh-Morpork City Watch, Zombie, dead rights activist. Handy man with a needle and thread. Would think The Walking Dead and the like are vitalist. Undead, yes. Unperson, no!
Dead rights activist!! What book or show is it from?
Seen the trailer for G.O.T. ? I'm excited already...
Discworld (surprise surprise).
I haven't watched it yet. I've seen the promo photos though, complained about the lack of Dolorous Edd. *nods*
There's little glimpses of Varys and Tyrion on the run. Really looking forward to this storyline.
That will be interesting. Again not sure what I can say regarding this... I almost blurted something out there.
You're very disciplined, well done 
Watching Wolf Hall, I want to quote the books all the time... gotta sit on my hands cos I don't want to be a book-bore 
Be a book bore, please! Then I won't feel so bad being all "discworld discworld discworld".
I'm the biggest bore about Mad Men - I love it so much, I feel like they actually exist
Oh.. I understand that. There must be a Sam Vimes somewhere... I refuse to accept he's not real.
Knew you'd understand
How are you doing at the moment?
Did a lot of extra overtime. Completely bleh by the end of the week. Ended up ill in bed Friday night to this morning. Slept through most of the Italy match.
Now, I am here. Still not brilliant, but better. Mainly dragged myself up so's not to waste too much of my World of Warcraft subscription. *ahem* How are you?
Aww sorry you've been ill. No fun
I'm ok thanks... umm nothing terribly interesting is happening at the moment 
Nothing interesting is a good thing? Right?
Still got to see Top Gear... I got all carried away with MST3K and WoW last night. Oops.
It was fun - daftness beyond the call of duty as they rigged up their own ambulances Its so so so stupid but I love it.
I'll watch it after Metal Hammer. Can't miss Mr Milas. 
Metal Hammer, eh? Is this a new thing?
No no... radio show. Used to be on Rock Radio until they changed their name to Real XS, now on Team Rock Radio. Got moved to an earlier slot, annoyingly, used to find it relaxing before sleep... but the show in that slot now has a host with high-pitch, excitable shouty dj voice. Not as good as softly spoken Milas. 
Ah yes.... you can't beat a bit of raaawk! 
I like Kerrang [rock radio station on freeview ] Listen to it on the exercise bike - pedalling furiously and headbanging - I must look a sight
I find metal weirdly soothing. Even when it's all screamy and thrash... I can't work that one out logically. I used to keep Kerrang's tv channel on as background noise... but it's playlist verges a bit too much to the newer stuff, and it was one of those public-selecting_the_videos channels.
Have you ever heard screamo? It's like emo, without any of the melodic bits... it's weird.
I must check out this screamo... you're always introducing me to new stuffs, ta.
The screamo wasn't a recommendation. 
More like me showing my age... Young people! Wouldn't know good music if it kicked them up the bum. *shakes head*
*Shakes head in agreement, waves walking stick for good measure*
Must show you this my brother took this pic of a robin at his window feeder. Its a regular + and loves mealworms especially. Isn't it cute ?
Ooh! Excellent photo. Doesn't seem bothered about someone being on the other side of the glass.
Nope it doesn't Apparently its pretty cheeky... hops around when he's gardening. The blue tits are much shyer and fly away if they see movement.
I remember Springwatch saying robins are pretty feisty - they biff up other robins encroaching on their territory
There's a well known photo of a robin drop-kicking a larger bird off a feeder.

Just searched... is this the one? Oh man thats a bad@ss robin
That's the bunny. I'm never messing with a robin. No siree!
Nor me!
Good luck to Scotland in the rugby tomorrow
Thank you. Fingers crossed, but Wales, you know... Not so confident about Italy today either.
Bad luck Scotland ... aaarghh so close.
So, so close! Next up Italy, I think? That's a possibly...
