I sometimes think I lead a very strange kind of life. Today was no exception. Here are a few of the things I did today…

  • My 8th Conservative Home Diary appeared
  • EDP Column published
  • Got recognised at Woolwich Dockyard station with the words: “Hello Mr Whale!”
  • Did a photoshoot for Attitude Magazine
  • Decided to buy the Hugo Boss suit Attitude dressed me in
  • Met two lesbian ‘queens’ at the photoshoot (see the next issue!)
  • Finalised a serialisation for James Wharton’s book OUT IN THE ARMY
  • Was interviewed on Boulton & Co by Adam Boulton
  • Approved a draft cover for David Weir’s autobiography WEIRWOLF
  • Hosted a radio discussion on the badger cull
  • Met Lenny Henry and interviewed him about his new theatre production, FENCES
  • Hosted a radio discussion on the reform to legal aid (and upset lawyers)
  • Interviewed Vince Cable about apprenticeships
  • Met Andy McNab to do a half hour interview about his book BRAVO TWO ZERO
  • Ended the day digging a splinter out of my foot, while watching BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT!
