    We're having our usual Northern English summer, uncomfortably hot for one day, wet and cool for three!

    Ah, didn't know it was defunct.

    Obviously no Howard Johnsons here, but the mere mention of the name makes me think of Zappa's "Billy The Mountain", with Flo and Eddie squeaking "Howard Johnsons Howard Johnsons Howard Johnsons"

    The Costco hot dog is my favourite hot dog ever, £1.50 here. Talking of 5 Guys, we went on Saturday - it was undoubtedly a top-notch burger, but at over £40 for four of us (2 adults, 2 children) it's a once-a-year job.

    Tony Hatch is very well-heard (not sure if he's very well-known) here in the UK, having written the theme tunes to three long-running soaps, two of which are still going today. Also, on the "Call Me" theme...

    Ella's 100th birthday even made it to the BBC this week, with a feature on The One Show. Sky Arts also showed a 1965 concert from London last night.

    Yes, same here. Both my kids watch all that, constantly. I think if I got rid of the TV, my son wouldn't notice for days.

    Yes! the bit where the horn starts? You know, I listen to Debussy L'apres-midi d'un Faune, and think Round Midnight is about to start!

    Me too! I bought a copy in a charity shop and re-read it maybe 2 years ago. I enjoyed it, though I suspect I enjoyed it for different reasons second time around.
