The bowls final yesterday was superb. Why do they spray a bowl that touched the jack with breath freshener? I don't know. It went right down to a tie break. It was fantastic. Paul 'Fozzy' Foster won through in the end.

Not only did I watch the bowls yesterday, but I also bought a book on origami. The photo shows my first effort at creating 'saturn'. I hope you enjoy it.

So on we go,

Financial Times are looking for a Chief Sub-Editor, Sub-Editor, Deputy Production Editor, and a further Sub Editor.


Dear Madam/Sir

I note that you have several positions advertised in the Guardian Dated 29/09/07.

I do apologise for the lateness in my reply, but I have been applying for quite a number of jobs recently.

As you can see from my attached CV, I worked in a bank for ten years. How financial is that?

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
