15% off everything day at Target and I buy underwear, tissues and an Empire magazine.

Interesting interview with Eddie Izzard - in which he appears to be having an off day.

One of my favourite Shakespeares was on Ovation last night - it was Olivier's Richard III. I couldn't watch it as I find him a (sacrilige) shocking ham.
