PS at home - family with lurgy, H recovering reasonably well - and my international podcast debut now available on-line at http://homepage.mac.com/william.gallagher/rss/DVD172.mp3 (UK DVD review). I was suffering with heavy cold and doped up on painkillers when interviewed so please excuse my incoherence!
