Re the Abramovich boat post: I’ve been contacted now by three British newspapers, one gentleman who sounded suspiciously like a Russian investigator, various salesmen and a couple of nuts. Honest, I don’t know where the boat is, I haven’t got the faintest idea how he paid for it, and it doesn’t interest me in the slightest what David Beckham is currently doing on it with Belle de Jour.
I did already know, however, that the universe was shaped like a mediaeval musical instrument. However it’s a trombone not a horn.
PS: Feargal the Manhattan ambulance chaser has one ready and waiting for the next person who tries to reuse the boatos without contributing to my beer fund.
