Going nowhere tonight, plenty coming round to our house though. Last year, I think we wrapped up about 0500-0600 (ish).

Apologies in advance should I offend someone at 0400 this morning or so.

Everyone have a good evening.

Not likely to be online later, so I'll wish you all a Happy New Year in advance. May it be a good one for you all.

Nowhere. I shall be monitoring newsnow.co.uk 24/7 from herein to see which clueless scouser has been chosen to take the Reebok hotseat.

It's a lonely vigil, but someone has to do it.

You'll be fine...

If you get chance (or want) to ask (unlikely I know)...

I'd like to know if the site ever gets invaded by rightist thug idiots trying to flood...

Can any site like this ever break a story - does anyone actually post something that goes 'Ding?'

Verbal · Post by **Verbal** » Thu Feb 04, 2010 11:03 pm

With regard to the former, comments on cif are post-moderated so i'd reckon any invasion would be swiftly dealt with.

Luckily, the second leads into the main focus of the reason I'm there in the first place; my dissertation project

Hope it goes well... sure it will..

thanks...will try and post some answers to your queries tomorrow or over the weekend.

Interesting...

chatting to her, cif is an excellent platform for pluralising and widening debate...which is fairly obvious, to be honest. Rather than just having opinion dictated to you from 'columnists', hundreds of people from all walks of life can write and submit a piece on a particular topic. The key line is that it doesn't matter if you can't articulate like Simon Jenkins; if you've got a point, your in.

Though obviously these will all go through the same editorial process, so the extent to which you can call it a free forum is debatable...

With regard to breaking stories, it's apparent that journalists at the big g-unit have come to use blogging, twitter, other social media as a way to find stories and evidence. Cases in point are the Iain Tomlinson death at the g20, and the trafigura scandal.

Will type the recordings up at the weekend and see if any of it actually makes sense!

Exactly. Doesn't sound much like 'widening the debate' to me, fella.

Tonight was the press night of Midsummer Night's Dream at the Octagon. It is a glorious production. Wife and I loved every minute. Simply a delight to be there. Especially lovely to see a young cast come to grips with shakespeare and end up owning the play securely, telling its story with clarity, creating character with depth and variety.

And I'll be going again. You don't get to see Shakespeare of this quality outside Stratford or London. And it's in Bolton. How good is that?

Oh - it's set in the 1960s and the design is inspired by the iconic cover of the sergeant pepper album and is wonderfully inventive and vibrant and colourful...

Unmissable for theatre lovers, shakespeare fans and anyone who enjoys the sound of laughter. it is very funny. I think it's fantastic that a play written over 400 years ago can make people curl with laughter now...

you'll have gathered i quite liked it...

Tonight at the Bridgewater Hall to see (for the 6th time) a concert from the world's most brilliant Fadista, Mariza.

Two hours of bliss.

Wonderful music, incredibly brilliant voice, moving, uplifting, just delicious...

So great shakespeare last night... oustanding portuguese music tonight... only the football to spoil the weekend - and i ain't going to let it!!!

Read the review in tonight's BEN. The guy must've been close to creaming himself. Couldn't praise it enough.
I look forward to seeing it later in the week.

Yet possibly the worst review David Thacker has ever had in City Limits/MEN...

Absurd... it's brilliant - but long - 3 hours 20... That's a lot of play for your buck...

let me know what you think, Bruce...
