All in all a rather good day, managed in the END to set up meeting
with boss at BBC. Something which has not happened before which will
take place in September.

An interesting point is the BBC petition on pm site is most signed up
one about the BBC, no other petition comes close most them bellow 100
people, 15,645 and still going strong but you have until 20 August
2007, 6 days and counting to sign up.
