Actually, my sudden leap in hits from the Beckham scandale didn't result from my asking what all the fuss was about. The hits came before Google could spider that bit.

It's because I have 'Popbitch' on my sidebar, and a disclaimer on my page saying "I don't have any photos of Blu Cantrell, whoever she is. Or a nude David Beckham." The strapline on my site is "Inside the internet". And I regularly use the word 'email'.

Like you, Google puts the two together. Thus any search for 'David Beckham' together with any combination of 'Popbitch' or 'email' or 'rumour' or 'internet' throws up my site.

2,000 hits yesterday. I'm going to have massive bandwidth charges this month. Grrr.

I stand corrected.

This afternoon I just hit 1000 hits this month. Just in case that total ever gets too over-the-top I'm now being a little more careful what I type. I decided not to risk putting 'David' 'Beckham' and 'rumours' in the same sentence today, just in case.

Hmm, Mark Owen?

Described by Anne Diamond, during an interview on The Steve Wright Show on the day after her exit from The House, as:

A really nice person who was always cheeful, but told you very little about himself, and made thousands of cups of good tea.

Would that there were more people like that around

No mystery as to why people are searching for Chip Hawkes and the Monkees together - it was a question on Brian Matthew's "Sounds of The 60s" - true or false, Chip auditioned for them.

I sometimes wonder if Radio 2 is haunting me on here.
