Well, happy 08:08 on 08/08/08, everyone!

Three years ago, I pondered what I might do on this auspicious date, but my ambitions did not extend beyond greeting the day at 08:08 (which I have, of course, now done).

Little did I guess that I would be doing so from a house in Leeds, or indeed that I would proceed that afternoon to York to celebrate the civilisation of glitzfrau and biascut. But, nonetheless, that is what I am doing - and I can't think of a better way to mark this once-in-a-century date.

At 08:08 this morning I was on a train clattering towards Leeds. Probably somewhere around Garforth at that point.

Hee! I carefully made sure I was looking at the clock by our bed in the hotel at 08.08 on 08.08.08. If I'd been at home, I'd have looked at the seconds on the clock I've been looking at matching hh:mm:ss on since I was 11, but instead I was in York for a lovely lovely reason!

Thank you so much for coming - and especially for being one of the contributors to our travel vouchers! We are startled and stunned!
