Our PA every Sunday is Marta, who, I think, has family in Poland. She told me what happened to the polish government yesterday; how incredibly tragic. Marta doesn’t seem too perturbed by it, although she’s been rather quiet.

I can’t help wondering what would happen if something similar happened here. What if Mr. brown and Mr. CaMoron, along with the chief of the armed forces and the archbishop of Canterbury, suddenly died? Are there contingency plans? Who would be in charge? Does the queen take over? That might be cool. The queen seems to know what she’s doing, and she doesn’t irritate me as much as the others. Better yet, why don’t we get David Attenborough to take over?

Okay, I’m going off on too much of a tangent. Still, it is quite phenomenal, very sad news. I think me and Lyn will be going easy on Marta today.
