It's gonna be a late one tonight. I know it's fashionable to pretend to be bored with party politics - the youth are interested in issues not parties (yawn) - who governs our country is still a must-view chez-moi.

Therefore, before the exit polls come in at ten, I'm off to cook myself a spicy methi chicken curry. Methi is, of course, fenugreek. I bought a couple of bunches from Taj down in Brighton over the weekend. Add plenty of chilli and spinach and I'll all be set for a late night. Like Julian in Franco's Fiesta (have you read it yet, it's on Amazon, you know) there's a bottle of Fino chilling in the fridge.

Okay - methi madness here we come!
