		<title>Two minutes of silence today?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, at the car auction, the announcements were clear. At eleven o&#8217;clock staff stopped what they were doing and so did most of the customers; but far from all. I had expected this so I had locked my car to stand at its side.
Through the whole two minutes there were still many punters wandering around, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=driverrob.wordpress.com&blog=14993&post=924&subd=driverrob&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>PM apologises over soldier letter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Unfortunately, this is the biggest news in the UK for the moment.
For non-UK readers, Gordon Brown has taken an unprecedented step of hand-writing individual letters of condolence to the  close relatives of soldiers killed in the middle-East this year.
This is no mean task for someone running a country, when such letters would have normally been [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=driverrob.wordpress.com&blog=14993&post=919&subd=driverrob&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Obama says health vote &#8216;historic&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is the big news of the day. Viewed from the UK it may seem strange that a rich country is only now considering a state-funded health care system which looks after the poor, funded by those who can afford it. We&#8217;ve had the NHS for nearly 60 years. It&#8217;s not perfect and some people [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=driverrob.wordpress.com&blog=14993&post=917&subd=driverrob&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

I can&#8217;t think of a suitable comment. To use the vernacular, WTF?

		<title>Strange book titles</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever seen a book whose title makes you think &#8220;What on earth is that about?&#8221;
I did this week, in a charity shop.
&#8220;Salmon fishing in Yemen&#8221;  All I know about (the) Yemen is it&#8217;s in the middle-east, mostly desert and extremely lawless and dangerous.  So, I wonder what the book is really about.
Any more [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=driverrob.wordpress.com&blog=14993&post=912&subd=driverrob&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Festival Place, Basingstoke</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This will only be of interest to people, like me, who live within reach of the town, I imagine.
However, &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.
After my first visit today I have to vote it the very worst indoor shopping centre and car park I have ever visited.
Finding it was easy; off the A30, one junction up the ring road, follow [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=driverrob.wordpress.com&blog=14993&post=909&subd=driverrob&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

How do you do that ??? Just try getting your nose anywhere near your navel!
