There are almost enough of you now to get a Dan clone to do the dreaded BLOGATHON (and yes I will shout. I think it's worth shouting about) He's talking about next Sunday 10am to 10pm London time. (Having said that, I wonder how much the R&R has gone to his head, and how much he might regret saying this to me in the glaring light of day tomorrow.)<BR/><BR/>Everyone - Sign up! Sign up now!
