In brief, post-pub

1. Most offensive thing that Barclays said to me today: "marital status ... you're a widow, yes?" (Because obviously if I have a joint account with a person of the same name, it must be my husband.)

2. Release oil. (I could not help but snort.) The oil that is used to make sure that cast items don't stick to the mould. ... Apparently some people can't smell anything.

3. Yes, the trailer for Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest is available. Due for release in early July 06.

4. I was only an almost innocent bystander.

5. Boo to half-hourly train services.
