On terrorism - the news is indeed good that the police have swooped on the potential terrorists in Uxbridge. When I was a youngster we lived in a climate of fear of the IRA. I remember after the Harrods bomb at Christmas I would be at my wits end when my mother swanned off up to Bond Street on the 9:45 to Marylebone.

Now the teenyboppers of today have to worry about being blown to bits in Claire's Accessories by Al Qaeda. I wonder if they were intent on blowing up the new Chimes shopping centre in Uxbridge? I hope not, I rather like UniGlo.
