poliphilo...We've been having some nice weather. A little windy perhaps.
...I've been to see the doc about my blood tests. My bad cholestrol is way down and my good cholestrol is up- and I'll need to go on taking the tablets for the rest of my life.
...I've been following the parliamentary expenses scandal with (unChristian) glee. Clever old Daily Telegraph to string it out over so many days! My favourite claim is the one the Tory grandee put in for cleaning out his moat.

The Daily Telegraph has managed to get hold of the details and is publishing them over several days.
