Getting my excuses in early

I will be away all Bank Holiday weekend in what, in hope rather than in expectation, I will call 'sunny' Manchester. The next Labour MP for Manchester Withington, Lucy Powell, is getting married. Not taking a laptop with me, so unless I manage to slip my handlers and get to an internet cafe, I won't be blogging or checking comments.

Wanted to blog about today's votes - and yesterday's, although Tom Harris has comprehensively covered that - but more important to clear the desk. One of those things... the more 'interesting' the week is politically, the less chance you get to blog. I might feel sufficiently refreshed by Monday to do a catch up. Who knows.

Heard that you will be on the BBC this Sunday talking about blogging for the West's Politics Show.

I hope you are having a nice time in Manchester. I think I should point out that, as far as I remember, on average Bristol has a larger annual rainfall than Manchester - oh, and Luton has less. Anyway, it has been a nice weekend in Manchester so far, someone must have known you were coming.

Sorry for delay in posting these comments. I think the clip is on Politics Show website.

I thought you and James made a lovely couple.

That confused me for a moment... the groom at Saturday's wedding was called James.

I have a very firm policy of never watching myself on TV, for the simple reason that if I did it would probably be enough to put me off every doing it again. Was the bouncer wearing his bow tie?

Alas not.

He was inside his palatial Redland residence sporting a rather casual v-neck and polo shirt combo accompanied by his laptop.
