Reading: The Baghdad Blog by Salam Pax. He has his own Wiki page, but no sign of any recent blog postings. Hope nothing bad has happened.
Typing: Letter to Arsenal on behalf of my Dad, complaining about not getting Silver Membership tickets to tonight's match. Especially as we have bought tickets for every domestic game this season. Box Office Person told Dad to write to the people in authority.
Working: Nothing. Temping front a little quiet this week, due to the end of the financial year. Apparently should be more promising next week. 
Other Stuff: Discovered the "Air Umbrella Guitar", very useful when listening to The Manics brilliant version of Umbrella.

Salam Pax's last post I can find is on the Guardian Comment is Free just over a year ago:

I have a feeling I read somewhere he now also writes under his own name
