;-) Good morning everyone. Gorgeous, DRY, day here. Thank goodness.

Yesterday was Nancy Reagan's 81st d'day.

What a tremendous day.

Happy Birthday, Mrs. Reagan.

Now for the news: looks like Tony Blair has a bit of a "Hillary" problem:

ALASTAIR Campbell and his spin team have shrugged off reports that Cherie Blair likes to muscle in on No.10 meetings but I learn that she is still pushing her husband around.

The Blairs recently hosted a dinner party at No.10, during which one of the guests had the courage to raise the fiercely controversial subject of fox-hunting. The Prime Minister - who deplores the blood sport but is dilly-dallying because he fears a ban would lose him votes - launched into a monologue about the pros and cons.

Before long, guests were snubbing the cheese-board and checking the time on their Rolexes.

But Tone's speech was brought to a dramatic halt when Cherie boomed: "You know what you have to do regarding fox-hunting!" The Prime Minister reddened, I am told. "It was quite clear that he was embarrassed," says my well-fed source.

"He gave one of those beam-me-up-Scottie looks. If he pushes for a ban with a bit more gusto, we'll know that Cherie was behind it." The Mirror
