I haven't written anything yet today, though I see that the conversations are continuing on other posts. I've been filming another sequence in a TV documentary that should air in February. Which raises a technical issue for my blog; because I've been on the road filming quite a bit lately, and I'd like to be able to blog fro my mobile phone -- and even attach a picture from a shoot. We're still working out how best to facilitate a texted post, but I expect it'll be sorted in the new year. Then I can hassle you round the clock.

Dashing again now. My colleague Alf McCreary of the Belfast Telegraph has organised a special journalists dinner tonight for Lord Eames. Alf, you may know, is Dr Eames's official biographer. This will be an opportunity for about a dozen of us media types to have a bash to mark Lord Eames's retirement. All conversations will be off the record, of course; but if the archbishop breaks into any cars and tosses toys from the back windows, you'll be the first to hear about it.

By the way, Tom Butler, who's still the Bishop of Southwark, will present his next Radio 4 Thought for the Day next Tuesday, 19 December. I'm hoping he will end his peice with, "I'm the Bishop of Southward; this is what I do. Good morning."
