Sparks seem to be subjected to an eternity of cock ups like this, and
listening to the interview riled me somewhat. There's always been something
rather annoying about Jono Coleman and Monday's shambles did nothing to
rectify his personality in my eyes. I just find it ridiculous when a radio
or TV host is that extravert. Ah well, it's the forum in a few days' time.
See you all there.
