Friday 11th September

Bracknell Blog had news of Tory plans for an open primary to replace Andrew MacKay in my local constituency. The bad news is I cannot go to it as I am on holiday!

Three bonuses this week (you lucky people). Roll up, roll up:

Marvel at Will Howells' lyrical genius regarding Tube passengers:

Gasp at how newly minted Minnesotan Senator Al Franken draws a map of the USA entirely from memory:

And finally gape at another brilliant song from Mr Howells, this time on Derren Brown's lottery "prediction":

This last one has been widely and deservedly linked to. Well done Will! You are teh new Tom Basdens mixed with John Hegleys.
